Paul Heyman’s Wiseman position in jeopardy, Roman Reigns’ past to haunt him? 4 predictions for the OG Bloodline on SmackDown this week
Tonight's episode of WWE SmackDown promises to be an intriguing show for the blue brand. This episode will showcase the fallout from Survivor Series: WarGames 2024. One of the most captivating aspects for fans would be what’s next in the Bloodline saga, as the OG Bloodline emerged victorious over Solo Sikoa’s faction at Survivor Series.
In this article, we’ll explore four predictions for the Original Bloodline on this week’s episode of SmackDown.
#4. The OG Bloodline might address the mysterious attack on Jey Uso
Jey Uso was mysteriously attacked backstage on RAW this week. Sami Zayn initially suspected Seth Rollins as the potential attacker, but The Visionary denied the claim.
It’s possible that on tonight’s SmackDown, Roman Reigns and the OG Bloodline might address the mysterious attack. The Original Tribal Chief could issue a warning to the attacker, stating that they would face consequences for this action.
#3. Roman Reigns might question Paul Heyman about CM Punk's favor
The OTC and The Wiseman have surely reunited, but one thing remains unclear: what favor CM Punk has from Paul Heyman. Now that WarGames has ended, Reigns might question his special counsel about this and try to force him to reveal the truth.
A segment like this would certainly make the Bloodline Saga even more intriguing, as WWE continues to involve the Best in the World in the storyline indirectly. If the Wiseman still doesn’t answer Reigns’ question, it could jeopardize his position in the OG Bloodline, as Roman might begin to question his loyalty.
#2. Drew McIntyre returns to SmackDown and teams up with Solo Sikoa to take down the OTC
Drew McIntyre made his RAW return this week and attacked Sami Zayn, seemingly indicating that the OG Bloodline might be on the Scottish Warrior’s radar. This raised the possibility of McIntyre appearing on SmackDown tonight and teaming up with Solo Sikoa in a temporary alliance to take down Roman Reigns.
Both Drew and Roman have a history of bad blood, so Drew attacking Reigns could feel like the OTC’s past haunting him once again.
Such an angle could also plant the seeds for a Roman vs. Drew rematch in the Stamford-based promotion. Additionally, it might serve as a way to write Roman out of television storylines for a while.
#1. Roman Reigns might challenge Solo Sikoa for Ula Fala on SmackDown
Roman Reigns once again pinned Solo Sikoa at Survivor Series: WarGames 2024. However, the OTC still doesn’t have the Ula Fala around his neck. Following Survivor Series, Roman might issue a challenge to the self-proclaimed Tribal Chief to put the Ula Fala on the line.
The Head of the Table could declare that he has already destroyed Solo and that it’s time to reclaim real power. As a result, Roman might challenge Solo on tonight’s SmackDown. WWE could announce this match for either RAW’s Netflix debut show or the upcoming Saturday Night's Main Event.
