Ex-WWE champion may be part of plan involving 2 huge legends to destroy OG Bloodline, says Sam Roberts; it could lead to massive reunion
WWE analyst Sam Roberts recently discussed the possibility of a former champion betraying the OG Bloodline. He claimed it could be part of a plan put together by two massive legends.
After The Usos reunited with Roman Reigns, Jey convinced Sami Zayn to rejoin the OG Bloodline in the faction's war against Solo Sikoa and Co. However, the former WWE Intercontinental Champion was involved in a controversial moment on last week's SmackDown. Sami was seen taking a phone out of his pocket and throwing it on the couch as his teammates were focused on watching the new Bloodline heading to ring on TV. The segment sparked rumors, suggesting Zayn could secretly be working against the OG Bloodline.
On his Notsam Wrestling podcast, Roberts did not rule out that theory despite pointing out that he did not believe it. Instead, he thought it was a red herring. Meanwhile, he explained that Zayn could be working with The Rock and Paul Heyman to destroy the OG Bloodline if that theory was true.
"I think it's a red herring. There are some who think that Sami's gonna turn on the [OG] Bloodline; he's gonna side with the [new] Bloodline not because of anything the new Bloodline has done; not because he wants to be best friends with Solo Sikoa, but we don't know what Sami and Solo were talking about in that parking lot weeks ago before Crown Jewel. This could all be a plan. Maybe Paul Heyman's involved. Maybe The Final Boss is involved with Solo Sikoa," he said.
The 41-year-old WWE analyst claimed that the proposed scenario could lead to the reunion of Zayn and Kevin Owens, who recently turned heel.
"Maybe Sami Zayn's been smartened up to all of it, and he's just playing his part here. And that phone being thrown on the couch is part of it. And where do we go after it? Well, last time I checked, Kevin Owens is a villain now as well. And the re-formation of Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens together, except this time they're villains," he added. [20:14-21:10]
WWE legend claims Roman Reigns would be wary of Sami Zayn at Survivor Series: WarGames
On his Rikishi Fatu Off The Top podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi addressed Sami Zayn's reunion with Roman Reigns and the OG Bloodline.
Rikishi referred to Zayn's Helluva Kick to Reigns at Crown Jewel, pointing out that the OTC would be wary of Sami during the anticipated WarGames Match against The Bloodline in Canada.
"We all know the type of dude Roman is. Rest assured that kick; it's still on the back of Roman's head, I feel. And who knows? Because we can't make that same mistake during WarGames. If that happens, and it costs Roman and the OG Bloodline a loss, there's going to be a problem there. I can assure Roman's eyes are gonna be wide awake during WarGames for Sami Zayn. I'm gonna say this to Sami Zayn: tread lightly," he said.
It will be interesting to see where Zayn's true loyalty lies as the OG Bloodline heads into the WarGames Match at the upcoming WWE PLE.
