Paul Heyman reacts to being attacked by The Bloodline; confirms he is on Roman Reigns' side ahead of rumored WWE SummerSlam return
WWE Hall of Famer Paul Heyman recently took to social media to react to The Bloodline's attack on him amid Roman Reigns' absence from television. The Wise Man and The Tribal Chief are heavily rumored to return at SummerSlam.
Since losing the Undisputed WWE Championship at WrestleMania XL, Reigns has been on a hiatus from the Stamford-based promotion's television. Amid his absence, Solo Sikoa kicked out Jimmy Uso and brutally attacked Paul Heyman after he refused to acknowledge Sikoa as his Tribal Chief on an episode of Friday Night SmackDown. The Enforcer and his stablemates, Jacob Fatu, Tama Tonga, and Tonga Loa have been wreaking havoc on the blue brand in recent weeks.
Solo Sikoa is now set to face Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship at SummerSlam and according to several rumors, Roman Reigns might return at The Biggest Party of The Summer alongside Paul Heyman to confront the self-proclaimed Tribal Chief.
The Wiseman recently took to his Instagram stories to repost a comic created by a fan named Norberto Gaetan, which showcased The Bloodline's attack on Heyman. The WWE Hall of Famer also sent a two-word message highlighting the new post and also confirmed that he was still on Reigns' side as he did not acknowledge Solo Sikoa.
Via the post, he also reiterated his allegiance to the original Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns as emphasized in the comic.
"NEW POST," he wrote.
