Paul Heyman has four-word message ahead of WWE SmackDown season premiere
Several sections of the WWE Universe are anticipating the comeback and eagerly following the trail of breadcrumbs for Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman's returns. The Wiseman had a cryptic message for everyone on social media.
SmackDown premieres a new season tonight on the USA Network, live from the Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle, Washington. Paul Heyman was last seen on the June 28 episode at Madison Square Garden in New York, where he refused to acknowledge Solo Sikoa as the new Tribal Chief. He immediately faced the repercussions, getting put through a table by The Bloodline.
While Roman Reigns returned at SummerSlam, the latter also suffered a similar fate as The Wiseman, a few weeks ago at the hands of Jacob Fatu and company. Taking to his Instagram story, Paul Heyman sent a four-word cryptic message. Here's what he had to say ahead of the new season amidst rumblings of a comeback:
"(WISE) MAN IN BLACK," wrote Paul Heyman.

SmackDown's debut episode on the USA Network will feature Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes' title defense against Solo Sikoa inside a steel cage. It will be a perfect setting for either man to score a decisive victory.
The American Nightmare probably wants to move on from The Bloodline, although being a fighting champion he does not back down no matter how many of the group members challenge him. As for Sikoa, he needs to prove that he belongs in the main event.
Will Roman Reigns crash The Bloodline's party on WWE SmackDown's season premiere?
Although Solo Sikoa is locked inside a steel cage with Cody Rhodes, one thing we know about WWE is that the heels always find a way to break the rules. At SummerSlam, perhaps no fan could have anticipated The American Nightmare getting assistance from Roman Reigns. Could it happen for a second time tonight?
The Original Tribal Chief's appearance for tonight's episode is all but announced publicly by WWE. However, it makes sense for him to show up and stop his cousin from winning the latter's first world title, especially if the rest of The Bloodline attempts to make sure that Solo Sikoa wins by unfair means.
From Paul Heyman to Roman Reigns making a return, WWE's creative has many ways to go for tonight's show. Interestingly, they are not the only former Bloodline members spotted before the blue brand's latest episode.
