Former WWE writer claims Roman Reigns' return has hurt the new version of The Bloodline
Wrestling legend Vince Russo recently claimed that Roman Reigns' return ruined The Bloodline's momentum.
Roman Reigns returned in the final minutes of SummerSlam and cost Solo Sikoa his chance at capturing the Undisputed WWE Championship from Cody Rhodes. It was The Head of the Table's first appearance since losing the title to The American Nightmare in the main event of WrestleMania XL.
Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW podcast, Russo claimed the new version of the faction will never compare to the original group. He claimed that the group had no heat from the crowd, and their momentum was stalled with Reigns' return.
"The normal fans, the normal people like you and I, are in the minority. It doesn't matter because the marks that watch this show are simply going to put everything and anything over. We said it months and months and months ago, this new Bloodline was definitely a step back from the original Bloodline. They were the B-Team. They were nothing more. There was no heat, we never got to know these guys on an individual basis. Now, Roman has laid them out [on] back-to-back shows," Russo said. [From 15:35 onwards]
