Ever since joining hands with Paul Heyman, Roman Reigns has been on the path of domination, nearing a 1000-day reign as the WWE champion. Even when faced with adversity, The Tribal Chief found ways, to go over and keep his titles. Needless to say, a lot of his wins were orchestrated by The Wise Man Paul Heyman, who recently tried to broker a deal with a tag team. The said pact would allow Reigns a probable victory in his upcoming title match against Undisputed Tag Team Champion Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens.

Meanwhile, fans reacted to the 57-year-old’s backstage schemes. They took to social media to vent frustration against him and his client, fearing another win by unfair means.

Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens were interrupted by The Judgement Day during their promo on the latest episode of RAW. This led to a match between the champions, and Finn Balor and Damian Priest of the heel stable. Meanwhile, Paul Heyman, who was recently drafted to SmackDown along with Reigns and Solo Sikoa as one team, was seen backstage on RAW.

He shook hands with Intercontinental Champion Gunther and his Imperium stable and soon after the wrestlers left, the Wise Man dialed Roman Reigns.

While the contents of the conversation between Imperium and Heyman were not shown, fans weren’t happy with the legendary manager.

This user revealed feeling “sick” of the act.

While this one had the same feeling, but additionally wanted an extra penalty for those involved.

Heyman’s morality was also questioned by one of the fans.

Fans also questioned Roman Reigns’ credentials as a champion.

Meanwhile, The Imperium was seen meddling in the tag team match later in the night as they helped The Judgement Day secure a win against the champions.

However, Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens might have a surprise waiting for them at Night of Champions on May 27.

Will The Bloodline split at Night of Champions?

For months, The Bloodline remained one of the dominant factions in WWE. With Roman Reigns keeping the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship and his real-life nephews- Jey and Jimmy Uso- holding on to the Undisputed Tag Team titles, the group enjoyed a golden run. However, at WrestleMania 39, The Usos dropped the titles to Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens.

Soon after, the small chink in The Bloodline’s armor widened. Solo Sikoa, Reigns’ trusted aide and real-life brother of The Usos, almost turned on the duo during their six-man tag team match at WWE Backlash. On the May 12 episode of SmackDown, the twins were berated by the Head of the Table, who publicly humiliated the former champions by making Heyman announce Reigns and Sikoa as The Bloodline’s challengers for the tag team titles.

This could actually work in the Tag Team Champions’ favor as Jey and Jimmy could turn against Reigns, Sikoa and help the Canadians to retain their titles. On the other hand, Heyman has likely figured out the looming threat, forcing him to visit the RAW roster to seek a potential alliance.
