The stage is set for an explosive showdown on October 15, 2024, as WWE prepares for one of the most anticipated matches in recent history. Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, and Jimmy Uso will take on Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu, and The Bloodline 2.0 in a match that promises to redefine the SmackDown landscape. With family feuds, unexpected alliances, and simmering unresolved tension, this clash is destined to leave a lasting mark on the WWE Universe.
Roman Reigns, still dealing with the fallout from his fractured relationship with Jey Uso, is struggling to reunite the family. While Jey remains at odds with his brother, Jimmy Uso, Roman has managed to bring Jimmy back into the fold following their reconciliation at Bad Blood. Roman and Jimmy’s reunion is a sign of hope for Roman’s vision of rebuilding Bloodline, but the journey is far from over as Jey’s absence leaves a noticeable void.
Cody Rhodes, a key figure in this match, has been an unlikely but powerful ally for Roman Reigns. Their collaboration has sparked intrigue, as both men have shared a complicated history, with Cody previously challenging Roman for the Undisputed Championship. Now, they are on the same side, united by a common goal: taking down the new iteration of Bloodline, led by Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu. Cody’s involvement adds an extra layer of unpredictability, as his motives for teaming up with Reigns remain somewhat ambiguous.
On the opposite side, Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu have been at the forefront of Bloodline 2.0, a new faction attempting to surpass Roman’s legacy and establish their dominance. Solo, after defeating Jacob Fatu at Bad Blood, has made it clear that he is forging his own path, independent of Roman’s leadership. The tension between Solo and Roman has only escalated, with Solo positioning himself as a new leader within the family.
Meanwhile, Jacob Fatu is determined to prove his loyalty to Bloodline 2.0, despite the resentment left behind from his recent loss to Solo. While Solo claimed victory, Fatu’s desire to avenge that loss is strong. His loyalty to Solo now indicates a deeper rift within the family, as Fatu has grown apart from Roman and his vision for Bloodline’s future. Together, Sikoa and Fatu form a formidable duo, and their new faction has gained traction as a dangerous force within WWE.
