Did Tonga Loa's botch at MITB just ruin the Bloodline's momentum? What's your take?

Tonga Loa is a member of the Bloodline who was introduced by Solo Sikoa, and it appears that fans are dissatisfied with the new wrestler. We witnessed the faction defeat Randy Orton, Kevin Owens, and the Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes at the Money in the Bank, PLE. The match occurred in the main event to show off its importance, and Jacob Fatu was the most valuable member of the Bloodline, taking care of practically everyone.

Tonga Loa was not involved much in the match and just had one important moment in which he had to deliver a low blow to Kevin Owens in the ring. Unfortunately, he missed executing it well since the low blow was bungled. Now, it seems that the crowd has had enough of the Bloodline star due to his shortcomings. The wrestling community chastised the wrestler for making such a mistake as a low blow is a pretty simple move.

WWE has not yet replied to this matter, but it appears that fans are using various angles to mock this low blow. A fresh front view of this low blow has now come out, revealing that not only did Tonga Loa miss the low blow by a mile, but he also hit Tama Tonga in the skull.

The punch does not appear to be very harsh, but it would have hurt because it was delivered with a significant amount of power. WWE might not have expected the wrestler in the main event to pull off a botch. The disappointment only increases when you consider the fact that fans have noted Loa’s inactivity in the mic and minimal in-ring participation. They suggest that his presence may be present solely to improve the numbers game of the faction.

Nevertheless, the black cloud hovering over the match didn’t deter from its overall quality.

Aside from Tonga Loa, The Bloodline put on a clinic

Have an interesting take?

Although this incident occurred in the middle of the match, it appears that, other than this portion, all other segments were favorably received by the spectators. Jacob Fatu looked amazing in the ring and outperformed everyone else. Without Fatu, Bloodline would have failed to establish its upper hand and claim victory.

Solo Sikoa pinned Cody Rhodes to win, alluding to the fact that we may see both of them face off again at SummerSlam, this time for the Undisputed WWE Championship. It would be intriguing to see how the Bloodline intervenes in this match to ensure Sikoa’s victory. They will not want to emulate Tonga Loa’s recent botch on the PLE.
