WWE veteran explains the reality behind The Bloodline story (Exclusive)
It's been a few years, but The Bloodline saga is still firing on all cylinders in WWE. Following the latest twist on SmackDown, Dutch Mantell broke down the storyline and why it has been so effective.
After refusing to acknowledge Solo Sikoa as the Tribal Chief, Paul Heyman was subjected to a brutal beatdown by the new Bloodline.
Dutch Mantell enjoyed the most recent development in the long-running angle, which, he believed, now wrote itself. The WWE veteran mentioned the various characters in the narrative and suggested that the stage was set for The Usos and Roman Reigns' reunion.
With Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton, and Kevin Owens in the picture, Dutch Mantell noted that The Bloodline story could fill an entire card by itself.
"See, a great angle because it writes itself. You just wrote it yourself just now, okay? You know the Usos are coming back, and Roman's there, Cody's there, you've got it! It just writes itself. That's a whole card by itself. When you tell it in increments... and you produce it in increments, and you piece it together." [31:00 - 31:30]
Even though fans can predict what's coming next, Dutch Mantell praised the booking of the new regime and how it has maintained continued interest in the program.
"Everybody can see the story of that's already gone on and what's coming. And that's the story of a good storyteller and a good booker. I don't really know who is booking this. I guess it's Triple H and The Rock, and who's that Gewirtz guy?" [31:31 - 32:00]
The expectation is that Roman Reigns will return to exact revenge for Paul Heyman; however, when and how that happens is anyone's guess.
