Roman Reigns is set to face Bronson Reed this Sunday at Clash in Paris, following weeks of challenges from the Australian wrestler. The matchup offers Reigns a chance to retaliate after being provoked by Reed. WWE recently highlighted this feud by posting on social media that Roman Reigns is the one who sets the rules, emphasizing his dominance before the event.
This statement came alongside a video where WWE noted Bronson Reed’s Samoan heritage, prompting Reigns to demand recognition from him. Reigns appears to exert authority over the Samoan wrestlers associated with his Bloodline faction, but Reed made it clear that he will not submit to that control.
Changes in The Bloodline Shake Roman Reigns’ Standing
Roman Reigns has revealed that he no longer leads The Bloodline, a faction that once formed a core part of his support system. On RAW, he announced that he does not have a Bloodline anymore. Meanwhile, Jey Uso is set to compete for the World Championship at Clash in Paris, while Reigns faces his own challenges separately.
The division within the group has grown deeper as Sami Zayn now appears to be at odds with Reigns. Additionally, Jimmy Uso, who is on a different brand, has developed a close association with Jacob Fatu, distancing himself further from Reigns.
For Reigns, this fragmentation is significant since he has traditionally relied on his family’s backing. However, with Solo Sikoa leading a distinct Bloodline on SmackDown, Reigns now finds himself relatively isolated.
Potential Interference Could Influence Match Outcome
At Clash in Paris, Bronson Reed’s match against Roman Reigns might not follow previous Bloodline patterns. With Reigns’ faction no longer cohesive, it is possible that The Vision, rather than The Bloodline, may intervene on Reed’s behalf. This possibility gains weight given the ongoing tensions between Reigns and Seth Rollins, which could affect how the match unfolds.
The evolving dynamics surrounding Roman Reigns, including his dispute with other key figures like Sami Zayn and the shifting alliances, add an element of uncertainty to the Clash in Paris event and Reigns’ role within WWE going forward.
