WWE fans are still talking about the returns of Paul Heyman and CM Punk from last Friday’s SmackDown when 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 this Saturday.
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 week before, Reigns called Heyman’s phone, but the number was disconnected. Heyman came out dressed in black with a red undershirt and red handkerchief, a similar look to that of Sikoa, leading to fans thinking he might turn on Reigns in the future.
In June, Heyman revealed that he asked Reigns to leave Punk. This is after The Bloodline nearly fought Punk in a segment after Heyman asked Punk to do him a favor.

In the closing moments, Punk and Reigns also exchanged words, with Punk noting that it’s about him and Heyman and not him and Reigns. He said that Heyman was his wiseman.
“It’s not about you and me, it’s about him”
“He’s my wiseman”
“We’ll see”
Alright man. ALRIGHT. ALFUCKINGIRGHT.

After the show went off the air, there were hugs with Punk and The Usos while Reigns stood from a distance. Punk left with Heyman while the rest of the Original Bloodline walked from a distance. Whether in the ring or walking up the ramp, there wasn’t a single interaction with Reigns and Heyman.
Is Paul Heyman's introduction of CM Punk as the fifth OG Bloodline member at WarGames a sign of unity or discord?
Why the hugs with the Usos, the distance from Roman, and the exit with Punk?
Are cracks forming in the Bloodline's foundation?

Something’s up man.
And I know it’s off camera.
But we didn’t get no Paul Heyman and Roman interaction.
It might really be happening… pic.twitter.com/4gB3xW7Oez
