WWE allows major Bloodline botch on SmackDown
The Bloodline has been WWE Tag Team Champions on SmackDown for an entire week, but it seems that the company has not had time to change the plates for the new champions during that time.
The stable, consisting of Tama Tonga and Jacob Fatu, won the titles last week ahead of SummerSlam, but this week, Tonga Loa was seen carrying his belt following Fatu's injury.
Eagle-eyed WWE fans spotted that Tonga's title still included the DIY plates, which means that the company has found no time to change them over the past week.
It could be argued that Jacob Fatu's injury put The Bloodline in an unfortunate situation, and if he was in possession of the title over the past few days, that could be the reason for the delay.
That being said, the stars arrive at the venue for SmackDown several hours in advance, so there would have been plenty of time to change the plates before Tonga Loa made his way out to the ring to back up Solo Sikoa and his quest for a rematch.
