Original Bloodline member teases reuniting with Roman Reigns ahead of WWE SmackDown

A member of The Bloodline led by Roman Reigns has teased a reunion with The OTC ahead of the upcoming edition of Friday Night SmackDown. The name in question is Paul Heyman.

On the June 28 edition of the blue brand's show, The Wise Man refused to acknowledge Solo Sikoa as the leader of the faction, stating Roman Reigns will always be his Tribal Chief. It led to the former Enforcer and his newly recruited stablemates brutally assaulting the 58-year-old. Heyman has since been absent from television.

Ahead of the August 16 edition of SmackDown, Paul Heyman to Instagram Stories to tease his return to television alongside The Head of The Table. He posted a clip of Reigns from last Friday doing The Bloodline's iconic finger pose after taking out Sikoa and his men:

"Acknowledge The OTC," wrote Heyman.

Wrestling veteran believes Bloodline stablemate betraying Roman Reigns is a possibility

After costing Solo Sikoa the WWE Universal Championship match at SummerSlam, Roman Reigns single-handedly took out his former Bloodline faction mate and his new recruits, barring Jacob Fatu, last week on SmackDown.

Following Roman Reigns' blockbuster return at The Biggest Party of The Summer, Paul Heyman has actively been posting clips and pictures of the former Shield member. However, veteran wrestler Matt Morgan believes The Bloodline storyline could take an unexpected turn, with Heyman siding with Solo Sikoa.

While speaking on the Gigantic Pop podcast, the former WWE Superstar predicted that The Wiseman would return to betray his Tribal Chief and join forces with Solo Sikoa. However, Morgan noted that it would take some time, considering the vicious attack Heyman suffered at the hands of his former stablemates:

"I still think this is way in the distance, hopefully. I do think [Paul Heyman] comes back and I do think he sides with Solo in them. Listen to me, I know they just pulverized him recently. I get that. That's why it's gonna take some time to get there. But, he can't be a babyface manager. Doesn't work. Think about it, what a big betrayal to Roman!" Matt Morgan said.

Paul Heyman has played a significant role in the rise of The Bloodline. It remains to be seen when he will return to WWE programming to play his part in the ongoing storyline.
