In a seismic revelation during the latest episode of Friday Night SmackDown, Roman Reigns dropped a bombshell, introducing The Rock as the newest addition to The Bloodline.
Alongside this announcement, The People’s Champion took a swipe at Cody Rhodes and his supporters, dubbing them ‘Cody Crybabies.’
Meanwhile, with WWE’s upcoming premium live event, Elimination Chamber 2024, looming just around the corner, anticipation is building for appearances by Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins.
It’s been confirmed that The Visionary and The American Nightmare will feature as special guests on The Grayson Waller Effect during Elimination Chamber: Perth.
The prospect of Rollins and Rhodes gracing the event in Perth has set tongues wagging, fueling speculation that Roman Reigns and The Rock might surprise fans with an unannounced appearance, potentially setting the stage for a showdown at WrestleMania 40. This possibility has added another layer of excitement to the buildup for Reigns vs. Rhodes.
However, recent footage featuring Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman appears to pour cold water on the notion of The Tribal Chief appearing at Elimination Chamber: Perth.

In a video shared on Reigns’ official social media accounts, Heyman indicates that Reigns won’t be making the trip Down Under, seemingly quashing any expectations of his presence at the event.
While this development suggests Reigns won’t be part of the live event, The Rock’s status remains unclear. Fans eagerly await to see if The People’s Champion will make a surprise appearance at Elimination Chamber: Perth.
Following the electrifying segment featuring The Rock and Roman Reigns on SmackDown, fans couldn’t help but draw comparisons to a recent segment involving Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins on WWE RAW.
The Visionary threw his support behind The American Nightmare, garnering positive feedback from fans.
However, it was the Bloodline’s segment that stole the spotlight, racking up a whopping 2.1 million views on WWE’s official YouTube channel in just 17 hours.
In contrast, the Rollins-Rhodes segment clocked in at 2.3 million views after nearly four days. This stark contrast in viewership underscores the heightened engagement surrounding the Samoan faction storyline, particularly with the addition of Cody and Seth.
