This week’s episode of WWE Friday Night SmackDown left fans buzzing with speculation as intriguing developments unfolded in the Bloodline saga. Paul Heyman made a dramatic return to WWE television, aligning with the original Bloodline and introducing CM Punk as their fifth member for Survivor Series: WarGames.
CM Punk’s Cryptic Exchange with Roman Reigns
In a moment that caught fans’ attention, CM Punk appeared to mouth, “that’s my Wiseman,” to which Roman Reigns seemingly replied, “we’ll see.” Long-time WWE fans will remember the close relationship between Heyman and Punk during the latter’s first run with the company, adding layers to this storyline.
Heyman’s Winking Gesture and Bold Attire
Adding to the intrigue, Heyman was spotted winking at Jimmy Uso during the segment. However, it was his attire—a black suit paired with a crimson undershirt and matching handkerchief—that sparked even more fan theories online. The look has become associated with Solo Sikoa, fueling speculation about Heyman’s loyalties.
Is Heyman Aligning with Solo Sikoa?
The storyline thickens when considering recent events. Roman Reigns was unable to contact Heyman last week because his phone was out of service—a situation caused weeks ago by Solo Sikoa damaging Heyman’s phone. Fans are now speculating that Heyman and Solo might have struck an agreement, with Heyman potentially becoming Solo’s dedicated “Wiseman.”
From a storytelling perspective, this could make sense. Paul Heyman’s persona thrives as a heel, and with Reigns possibly transitioning into a babyface role, Heyman’s shift to Solo would complement Solo’s growing dominance within the Bloodline.
A Potential Survivor Series Swerve?
The layers of intrigue have led fans to believe that a major swerve may be in store for Survivor Series: WarGames. Could CM Punk’s involvement lead to new alliances or deeper fractures within the Bloodline? Will Heyman’s apparent connection with Solo Sikoa upend the faction’s dynamics?
As the storyline unfolds, WWE fans are eager to see how these developments play out in the coming weeks. Survivor Series is shaping up to be an event filled with high-stakes drama and potential surprises.
