During the backstage segment of the season premiere of SmackDown at BOK Center in Tulsa, Roman Reigns talked to The Bloodline members. Talking to Jimmy Uso, who has been on fire during Reigns’ absence, he had a lot to say. While Reigns was off air for the past few months, Jimmy has been running the show or trying to do so.
Unfortunately, things have not worked out in The Bloodline’s favor, and Reigns was not happy about this.

Talking to Jimmy, Reigns asked what he was doing during his absence. Jimmy claimed to be the team’s quarterback, which Reigns smirked in disappointment. Jimmy claimed to be taking care of Jey Uso, to which Reigns replied, “Jey is old news, you brothers, that’s the past.”
Reigns said, “The only thing that matters is those tag titles, and every day that he has it, that’s disrespect to our bloodline. Disrespect to our legacy.” Being the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, Reigns wanted the Undisputed Tag Team Titles to stay with The Bloodline.

Finally, Reigns asked Jimmy if he would handle it, to which Jimmy nodded in agreement. Reigns also mentioned that Jimmy shouldn’t be distracted anymore. Reigns also made it clear that Jimmy didn’t call the shots in The Bloodline.
After Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso retained their titles, Jimmy and Sikoa blocked the entrance ramp. Reigns came out as well and stared down Rhodes. With Reigns back, the terror of The Bloodline will continue.

Possibility of Reigns vs. Rhodes
One of the matches that fans have been eagerly waiting for is the Reigns vs Rhodes showdown. Since losing to Reigns at WrestleMania 39, Rhodes and the fans have been waiting for this match. The staredown with Jimmy and Sikoa makes sense, as they want the titles back. However, with Reigns joining them and staring down Rhodes, it gives off a different sense.
There are speculation that this match is bound to happen in the near future. With Reigns back on SmackDown, fans are hoping to see this soon.
