Former WWE star Bully Ray recently spoke about Roman Reigns and CM Punk teaming up at Survivor Series. The Original Tribal Chief will lead his team into battle at WarGames to take down Bloodline 2.0.
Paul Heyman enlisted CM Punk as the fifth and final member of Team Reigns for the WarGames match. The Straightedge Star showed up this past Friday and helped The OG Bloodline fend off Solo Sikoa and his henchmen.
This week on the Busted Open podcast, Bully Ray discussed something that still hadn't been answered. He pointed out that Reigns couldn't reach Paul Heyman on the phone. But the following week, The Wiseman showed up with Punk. The veteran wrestler questioned whether Reigns knew beforehand that his Special Counsel would bring Punk along with him.
"Roman Reigns called Paul Heyman. The operator came on and said the number you're trying to reach has been disconnected. Now, Paul Heyman shows up, The Wiseman, Roman Reigns' counsel shows up on SmackDown with CM Punk as a massive surprise. Did Roman know about this?" [2:38 - 3:08]
After showing up on SmackDown last Friday, CM Punk made a major statement. The Best in the World clarified that he was there for Paul Heyman.
Roman Reigns and CM Punk have a long and complicated history in WWE, going back to The Head of the Table's time with The Shield. The two megastars will be face-to-face on SmackDown this week to clear the air before heading into Survivor Series.
It will be interesting to see if Punk and Reigns can set aside their differences and work together to take down The Bloodline at Survivor Series on Saturday.
