The Bloodline, the prominent heel faction in WWE, remains in the spotlight even during Roman Reigns’ absence. Recent WWE programming showcased multiple segments featuring the group, with Dutch Mantell sharing his insights on the developments. Paul Heyman engaged in a verbal conflict with Kevin Owens, leading Owens to caution Heyman about Solo Sikoa’s associates in WWE. Subsequently, a tag team match ensued where Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa allied to triumph over The Street Profits.
In an interview on Wrestling’s Smack Talk, Dutch Mantell praised the execution of Heyman and Owens’ exchange but noted that the tag match may have stretched a bit too long.
Despite this, Mantell acknowledged that it was a successful night for WWE and The Bloodline overall. Reflecting on the events, Mantell mentioned, “When you get two good talkers that have a little bit of story already, they executed that well. I think the match was a little long but it accomplished what they set out to do. It was a good night for WWE tonight, all the way around.”
Solo Sikoa has taken the reins of The Bloodline in the absence of Roman Reigns. While Sikoa has emphasized his continuous communication with the Tribal Chief, even Paul Heyman has displayed apprehension towards him.
