WWE Hall of Famer Paul Heyman returned to SmackDown last Friday to announce CM Punk as the final member of the Roman Reigns-led Bloodline for WarGames. The wrestling promotion has now confirmed the alliance between The OTC and The Wiseman.
The Bloodline, led by Solo Sikoa, took out Paul Heyman on the June 28 edition of the blue brand's show after the latter refused to acknowledge Sikoa as his Tribal Chief. A couple of weeks ago, Roman tried to get Heyman on a phone call only to find out the latter's number was out of service. The 59-year-old, however, showed up the following week alongside The Second City Saint to even the numbers.
Following The Wiseman's return to television, the global juggernaut released new merchandise to reaffirm Heyman's allegiance with The OTC. The veteran took to his Instagram Stories to advertise the newly launched 'Paul Heyman & Roman Reigns T-shirt.' The former Undisputed WWE Champion also reshared Heyman's Instagram Story.
Although CM Punk helped The OG Bloodline take out Solo Sikoa and his men last week on SmackDown, many fans are skeptical of The Best in the World and Paul Heyman.
On his Notsam Wrestling podcast, Sam Roberts predicted Paul Heyman could send CM Punk to WarGames to turn on The OG Bloodline. The RAW Talk host claimed if this were to happen, it would be one of the greatest betrayals in the recent past.
"What if Paul Heyman would do the unthinkable? What if Paul Heyman sends CM Punk into WarGames to turn on Roman Reigns? What if CM Punk is in that cage to do his bidding? What if the greatest trick the devil pulled was making you feel he never existed? What if instead of having that ultimate feel-good moment of Bloodline leaving WarGames standing tall, Paul orchestrates one of the greatest betrayals we've seen in years in WWE?" said Sam Roberts.

On the go-home edition of Friday Night SmackDown ahead of WWE Survivor Series: WarGames, The OG Bloodline's Jey Uso will lock horns with Jacob Fatu in a singles match to determine which team will have the advantage at the premium live event. It would be The Samoan Werewolf's first singles match on WWE television.
