It’s now been more than two months since the smash hit WrestleMania 40, which currently represents Roman Reigns‘ last appearance in WWE. In the meantime, The Bloodline has undergone some major changes which were implemented by none other than The Enforcer, Solo Sikoa.

The Street Champion of the Island took the reins of the Bloodline, first expelling his brother Jimmy Uso and then introducing two other members: Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa, the sons of King Haku and considered cousins by several members of the Anoa’i family. And now former MLW heavyweight champion Jacob Fatu has made a major impact in the WWE with his debut. Single-handedly taking on Randy Orton, Kevin Owens, and Cody Rhodes.

So is this new Bloodline stronger than the one before? Since they are wreaking more havoc on the roster compared to the one run by the original Tribal Chief Reigns. Well, according to the guys at Busted Open Podcast, there is a major difference between the two that the WWE creatives are aiming to depict through each edition of WWE programming

In the latest edition of the Busted Open Podcast, Jonathan Hood and Justin LaBar talked about everything that happened in the latest edition of Friday Night SmackDown. And a major talking point was the explosive debut of Jacob Fatu.

“Methodical” vs “Bloodthirsty”: The Dichotomy of The Bloodlines

After seeing the massacre that Bloodline 2.0 unleashed, the podcasters couldn’t help but notice that while the former version of the faction made calculated use of violence, only using it when a certain situation arose, the new faction is bloodthirsty and would smack their opponents whenever they wished to.“The difference between the Usos, Roman and Solo and Bloodline 2.0 is that Roman and that group were more cerebral. They were more methodical. Thanks to the advice of Paul Heyman. This group here, Justin LaBar, let me tell you something. This group here, the Solo lead squad, they are bloodthirsty and physical and they don’t care. They’re all out of Fs. They don’t care. They don’t care about anything. This is how it’s being sold to us as fans.”

This surely makes them much more dangerous to go against. They do not shy away from breaking all the rules to get what they want. Even if it means they’ll look like savages. They really do not care. And now, with the addition of Jacob Fatu, a man that everyone feared would overshadow Solo Sikoa, the group is on the path to being one of the most destructive ever. Maybe Mark Henry should already give them the use of “Hall of Pain,”  as they surely would be sending many off to the hospital.

For now, everyone’s hoping to see a civil war between the two Bloodlines. With Roman Reigns allying with Jey and Jimmy Uso and possibly Zilla Fatu, while the current Bloodline features Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, Jacob Fatu, and possibly the new Tribal Chief, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson. What do you think? Which faction will win the fight if a civil war does take place? Let us know in the comments.
