Roman Reigns may have had a rough night at SmackDown but he cracked the WWE Universe up as soon as he arrived at the venue. SmackDown emanated from the Rupp Arena at Central Bank Center in Lexington, Kentucky. Tonight’s show saw the much-awaited segment involving The Bloodline. 

The moment The Tribal Chief arrived in his muscle car, Kayla Braxton asked him the question that was on everybody’s mind- “Where does Jey Uso stand within The Bloodline?”. The WWE Undisputed Universal Champion then scoffed and made a hilarious remark before walking away.

Roman Reigns’ spontaneity and sense of humor on SmackDown had the entire WWE Universe guffawing. When Kayla Braxton approached The Bloodline for an update on Jey Uso’s future, Roman Reigns jokingly said, “Wiseman, your girlfriend is here”, while giving Kayla the cold shoulder. 

After Roman Reigns moved out of the frame, Kayla approached Paul Heyman with the same question. However, Heyman’s reaction was rib-tickling. Heyman had the obvious “Do you see Jey Uso here?” look on his face. While it looked like Heyman was going to give Braxton her answer, he thought it was best not to comment.

Before Heyman left, he glowered at Kayla Braxton for a few seconds and the fans couldn’t get enough of it. Heyman has often had heated interview segments with Braxton with two often engaging slight banter.

Although SmackDown kicked off with a funny moment, the night turned out to be a far cry from Roman Reigns’ expectations.

During the main event segment, Jey Uso finally chose against remaining in The Bloodline and joined his twin Jimmy Uso. While staying in The Bloodline meant becoming the next Tribal Chief for Jey Uso, he left the fans gobsmacked by meting out Superkicks to Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa.

Jey Uso betraying Roman Reigns on SmackDown portended a possible tag team match at the upcoming Money in the Bank Premium Live Event. Although the match is not confirmed, several wrestling dirt sheets indicate that it is not far. 

Jey Uso’s defection from the Bloodline was not unexpected. However, at one point during the promo, Jey credited Roman Reigns for his success. While that almost had the fans convinced that he was going to fall in line, we learned later that it was all a setup. Nevertheless, The Bloodline is now officially broken.
