Cody, the Undisputed WWE Champion, managed to defeat Solo after a thrilling back-and-forth, securing his victory with his signature Cross Rhodes move. However, the celebration was short-lived as The Bloodline, including Jacob Fatu, Tama Tonga, and Tonga Loa, stormed the ring to launch a vicious attack on Rhodes.
As The Bloodline seemed ready to end Cody’s reign, the unthinkable happened: Roman Reigns made his long-awaited return to WWE. His entrance music hit, and the arena erupted. The Tribal Chief locked himself inside the steel cage and took the fight to his former allies, The Bloodline. Even though they initially had the upper hand, Cody quickly recovered and teamed up with Roman, driving the faction out of the ring.
After their triumphant collaboration, a tense moment unfolded as Cody and Roman stared each other down in the ring, setting the stage for an epic partnership. SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis later confirmed backstage that this alliance would soon face The Bloodline in a tag team match, adding even more excitement for WWE’s upcoming event, WWE Bad Blood
Roman’s return signals a massive shift in WWE’s ongoing Bloodline saga, with Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns now aligned to take on their former allies. Fans are eager to see how this new alliance will shape WWE’s future battles.
