One of Roman Reigns’ biggest rivals to reveal he has held Paul Heyman captive in WWE? Potential twist explored
Paul Heyman has been absent from WWE TV since the June 28 edition of SmackDown when Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu, and the Tongans beat him up. The 59-year-old was removed as The Wiseman of the group after he refused to acknowledge Solo as his Tribal Chief.
Heyman was supposed to return to the WWE along with Roman Reigns at SummerSlam 2024, but that didn't happen. The former Big Dog called up Heyman last week on SmackDown, but The Wiseman was unreachable. And now, there is a possibility that one of Reigns' biggest nemesis in the company, Kevin Owens, could have kidnapped Heyman and kept him captive.
The Prizefighter is one of the biggest rivals of Roman Reigns in WWE and his Bloodline. He feuded with Cody Rhodes just because the Undisputed WWE Champion had sided with Reigns at the Bad Blood Premium Live Event on October 5. Moreover, Roman Reigns' Bloodline in the past has caused enough suffering to Owens in the past four years.
At that time, Owens was a face, and Reigns as The Tribal Chief of Bloodline was a heel, and his men had on several occasions beaten up Kevin Owens. This is one of the main reasons why the former Universal Champion despises Reigns and his Bloodline members.
There is a possibility that Kevin Owens might have taken Heyman with him, and would not release him just to take revenge on Roman Reigns. KO turned heel at Bad Blood, while Reigns has been a babyface since his return at SummerSlam.
Paul Heyman's return is highly anticipated at the moment when The Bloodline storyline is at a tipping point. Kevin Owens too is locked in a storyline with Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes. Paul Heyman ties up Owens with Roman Reigns and the Bloodline storyline, and on next week's episode of SmackDown, Owens can release another video where he shows Heyman in his custody, demanding a match against Roman Reigns at any cost.
SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis had told Cody Rhodes that Owens wasn't allowed on SmackDown last week because he attacked Randy Orton. Owens later appeared in a video saying that Aldis called him up and asked him to be present on the show next week. Let's see whether Owens has to offer anything on Paul Heyman.
Roman Reigns' OG Bloodline to face Solo Sikoa's Bloodline 2.0 at WWE Survivor Series: WarGames
Roman Reigns' OG Bloodline is all set to take on Solo Sikoa's Bloodline 2.0 in a five-on-five WarGames Match at the upcoming Survivor Series: WarGames PLE on November 30. The contest would be to determine who is the real Tribal Chief and which faction is the real representative of The Bloodline in WWE.
The fifth member of Solo Sikoa's Bloodline 2.0 was revealed to be Bronson Reed, as he attacked Roman Reigns last week on SmackDown. And the fifth member of Roman Reigns' clan could be Seth Rollins, as Solo Sikoa cost him his match against Bronson Reed this week on WWE RAW.
Seth Rollins had rejected Sami Zayn's offer to join Reigns' camp against Solo Sikoa last week. The Visionary had cited his angst with The OTC. This week again saw Sami Zayn and The Usos try to convince him to come along, but he didn't budge.
However, Rollins might re-think about his decision after what happened on the red brand this week. He could probably announce himself as the fifth member of OG Bloodline next week.
