The Bloodline civil war has stepped up a notch and is expected to further intensify as the WWE Universe gets closer to Survivor Series. This week on Monday Night RAW, Solo Sikoa and The Bloodline 2.0 showed up in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and cost Jey Uso the Intercontinental Championship.

After what happened in the red brand's main event this week, Jey Uso is expected to move to SmackDown and reunite with Roman Reigns and Jimmy Uso, seeking revenge on Solo Sikoa.

Still, this wasn't the only interesting thing about The Bloodline on Monday, as other members of the faction have also lost championships in Philadelphia previously.

The Rock lost to Steve Austin at WrestleMania 15

Back on March 28, 1999, when The Rock was still The People's Champion and not The Final Boss, he took on fellow WWE legend Stone Cold Steve Austin at WrestleMania 15, held at First Union Center in Philadelphia.

This match was for the WWF Championship, and it was around the period when the rivalry between Steve Austin and then WWE Chairman Vince McMahon reached its peak.

It was a brutal No Disqualification Match, which saw even McMahon get involved. Ultimately, it was Steve Austin who pinned The Rock in the end and dethroned him.

Back in April, Philadelphia was the host of WrestleMania 40, where the main event of Night Two saw an Undisputed WWE Universal Championship match between Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes. It was the second year in a row that the two superstars had main-evented WrestleMania.

This time, though, things were different. The Bloodline chose the stipulation (Bloodline Rules), several superstars and legends got involved, and eventually, The American Nightmare finished his story and became champion, ending Reigns' title reign at 1,316 days.

Jey Uso made history a few weeks ago when he dethroned Bron Breakker and claimed his first-ever singles title after 14 years with WWE.

Still, his title reign didn't last long, as Bron Breakker re-claimed the Intercontinental Championship in Philadelphia after The Bloodline got involved this week.

Jey Uso fought back initially, but an assault from Jacob Fatu late in the match was enough for Breakker to pin The Yeet Master and re-capture the title. After the drama that ensued, Jey Uso is rumored to move to SmackDown to fight Solo Siko and Bloodline 2.0.
