The Bloodline has been the most dominant force on SmackDown of late. With Solo Sikoa at the helm, the stable has put down anyone who stood up to them.
While Tonga Loa was not cleared to compete this week, Solo Sikoa told SmackDown GM Nick Aldis that Jacob Fatu and Tama Tonga would be ready for in-ring competition. The faction battled in a Gauntlet Match to become the number one contender for the WWE Tag Team Championship. The match also included other tandems such as Baron Corbin & Apollo Crews, Legado del Fantasma, The Street Profits, The O.C., and Pretty Deadly.
This week on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Smack Talk, Mantell claimed that The Bloodline would destroy the team of Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa. He felt the stable was operating on a different level of ferocity and #DIY didn't stand a chance against them.
"So you want #DIY to hang on to it? I don't think they will. I think they will get slaughtered." [34:38 onwards]
Next week on SmackDown, Tama Tonga and Jacob Fatu will look to bring back championship gold into the Bloodline.
It will be interesting to see how they fare against #DIY next week on the blue brand.
