Until it actually leads somewhere, there is plenty of reason to be skeptical about LA Knight’s turn as a truth-teller about Bloodline 2.0, but he was out there again Monday night taking swipes at Roman Reigns and his family, drawing himself into the fray.

Knight reminded everyone that he fell victim to Solo Sikoa’s attack on SmackDown, which enabled Jey Uso to advance in the King of the Ring tournament. LA lamented how Roman is manipulating Jacob Fatu, then suggested that Reigns will launch an OTC meme coin next to scam the fans – which drew crickets (despite there being some storyline truth to it).

Jimmy Uso tried to calm the situation, but hothead Jey Uso came out and reignited the fire, leading to a two-on-one brawl that Fatu ended with a Tongan Death Grip. Jimmy was a bit conflicted, but after being assaulted three-on-one, Knight probably isn’t going to listen to Big Jim anytime soon.

Call this a decent segment, though this is another facet of the Bloodline saga that has less impact the longer Roman tries to straddle the heel/babyface dynamic.
