5 ways The Bloodline and The Judgment Day's potential alliance could end: Roman Reigns to defend title in historic match?

The latest angle between The Bloodline and The Judgment Day has got the pro wrestling world talking. Finn Balor and Damian Priest attacked AJ Styles following his win against Solo Sikoa last Friday on WWE SmackDown. The Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champions hurled the Phenomenal One inside the ring after the assault.

Both Solo Sikoa and Paul Heyman were left perplexed with The Judgment Day’s move. Nevertheless, Solo Sikoa finished his job by destroying AJ Styles with the Samoan Spike. This particular angle and the dark matches before SmackDown has left us wondering if WWE has subtly teased the Survivor Series main event for this year.

The key takeaway from the closing moments of SmackDown last week is that there could be some sort of potential alliance between The Bloodline and The Judgment Day. The two factions previously had a brief alliance during the build to Backlash 2023. Having said that, nothing lasts forever and this potential alliance between the two groups will eventually come to an end.

Here are five ways The Bloodline and The Judgment Day’s potential alliance could end:

---

#5. Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa go after the tag team titles

The Usos were never given a second opportunity to reclaim the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship. Jimmy and Jey wanted to face Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn for a third time, but were told off by Paul Heyman. The Wise Man had pronounced Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa as the contenders to the tag titles for Night of Champions 2023.

With Jey out of The Bloodline, and Jimmy wanting in, Roman Reigns may see this as an opportunity to get the tag team titles back to his group. The Tribal Chief could order Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa to take the undisputed tag team titles from Finn Balor and Damian Priest, with the match possibly taking place after Survivor Series.

#4. Paul Heyman sows seeds of dissension between The Bloodline and The Judgment Day

Paul Heyman has been the brains behind The Bloodline for three years now. The Wise Man has guided the faction to championship gold on both SmackDown and RAW. He’s been with the group through thick and thin. Heyman was also the one who mediated the alliance between The Bloodline and The Judgment Day in April.

He might also be the one to end it. The Wise Man could once again mediate an alliance between The Bloodline and The Judgment Day as long as it serves Roman Reigns' interest. Once the trust is established, he may sow seeds of dissension between the two factions by poking Judgment Day’s internal troubles or even manipulating Dominik Mysterio.

#3. Cody Rhodes shows up on SmackDown

Cody Rhodes brought Jey Uso to RAW in a shocking turn of events at Payback 2023. The American Nightmare said he exhausted his influence, whatever he had, to bring Jey to the Red brand. There is definitely more to Rhodes bringing Jey to RAW than meets the eye.

The American Nightmare is set to return to WWE RAW this week. He may announce his decision to leave the brand for SmackDown as Jey Uso’s replacement. This could, in turn, set up a storyline where Rhodes tries to create dissension between Bloodline and Judgment Day, leading all the way to Survivor Series.

#2. Damian Priest cashes his briefcase on Roman Reigns

SmackDown still has the top championship despite what Seth Rollins wants the WWE Universe to believe. There’s no prize richer in Vince McMahon’s promotion than the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship, which currently belongs to Roman Reigns.

By becoming the undisputed tag team champion, Damian Priest has afforded himself the opportunity to get closer to the Tribal Chief. Senor Money in the Bank has a huge opportunity in front of him and is probably waiting for the right time to cash it in.

#1. Rhea Ripley competes for the undisputed title

Rhea Ripley is seemingly the undisputed leader of The Judgment Day. Fans who watched RAW last Monday know what we’re talking about. Mami has managed to talk Damian Priest and Finn Balor out of their differences. It’s only a matter of time before she straightens things up with The Bloodline.

It is possible that the potential alliance between The Bloodline and The Judgment Day could lead to Rhea Ripley challenging Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. Chyna did it with the Intercontinental Championship years ago. This would not only be a huge step away from the company's traditional storylines, but also a nice nod to a historic moment of the past.
