WWE Backlash 2023: 10 Things That Must Happen
9. There's A Bloodline Breakdown In Communication
The big pitch here is that Sami, KO and Riddle end up winning the six-man tag because The Bloodline is slowly-but-surely falling apart. WWE's easy play would be booking Solo Sikoa to spike the t*ts off one of the babyfaces and look strong in the process, but no - something bigger needs to happen.
Jey and Jimmy need to miscommunicate like crazy.
That'd infuriate 'Tribal Chief' and Bloodline head honcho Roman Reigns on coming episodes of SmackDown, and it'd set the scene for more family dramas over the summer. WWE has quite the task on their hands to keep people captivated by The Bloodline now all that Zayn and Cody Rhodes business is over (at least for now). This is one way to do it.
Jey has always come across as someone who doesn't fall in line behind Roman without question. That's one story beat the writers can explore in-depth yet again over the next few months. More trouble in paradise? You bet.
