Earlier, the collective might of Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa was more than enough for Cena to handle in the final segment of SmackDown. In the end, Cena was left beaten and battered by the Samoan duo.
After the show went off the air, John Cena wrestled Montez Ford in a first-time-ever dark singles match. Fans were elated over Cena wrestling a singles match against the popular Ford.

Cena was scheduled to team up with AJ Styles against Solo Sikoa and Jimmy Uso in a tag team match at WWE Fastlane 2023. Styles was attacked by The Bloodline during the final segment of the show and was then sent to a hospital in an ambulance.
John Cena is still scheduled to face The Bloodline at Fastlane. It remains to be seen if Styles gets the green flag from WWE's medical personnel to compete in the match or if Cena competes alone. There is a high possibility that Cena will find a surprise replacement for Styles at Fastlane.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
