WWE Pulls In Big Numbers For Paul Heyman’s Return With CM Punk On SmackDown

WWE has capitalized on the alliance with Paul Heyman and CM Punk.

On Friday’s SmackDown, Heyman returned to reveal the fifth member of The OG Bloodline that had consisted of Roman Reigns, The Usos (Jey Uso and Jimmy Uso), and Sami Zayn to take on The Bloodline (Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu, Tama Tonga, and Tonga Loa) and Bronson Reed in WarGames at Survivor Series next Saturday.

Heyman interrupted the closing segment with his “Ladies and gentlemen line.” He introduced himself and apologized for his math, considering he was put through a table at Madison Square Garden because there’s no way you can have WarGames with a 4-on-5 match.

Heyman said it won’t be four vs. five because he has found a fifth member, and that’s CM Punk. Punk went down to the ring to help the OG Bloodline take out the Bloodline. The babyfaces stood tall in the ring to close the show.

The segment has pulled in 1.5 million views on YouTube in just over 12 hours. It has also done 2.5 million views on TikTok, and the USA Network’s YouTube video of the same segment is at nearly 800,000 views.
