Former NXT North American Champion Bronson Reed added fuel to the fire amid speculation that he is interested in joining The Bloodline on SmackDown. There have been a lot of rumors suggesting Reed is going to get a main roster call-up soon.
The Samoan Australian superstar told The Sportster's Denise Salcedo that he is willing to be part of Roman Reigns' faction on SmackDown. However, he did add that he isn't opposed to the idea of facing them either.
"Well I think a lot of people online fantasy book that. So I just like to feed their ego a little bit, {laughs} stir the pot a little bit. But I would not be against aligning myself with those guys. I’ve met them, they are someone that I feel I can definitely work with, but at the same time I wouldn’t be against fighting those guys as well," said Bronson Reed.
The powerhouse athlete has made a major mark in NXT already and is pegged as one of the NXT superstars who could become huge on the main roster as well. It would be interesting to see Reed join Roman Reigns' faction as a heavyweight. It will also make the inner dynamics of the group even more interesting to watch.
