Heyman and Sikoa tactfully stepped aside, allowing Jimmy to take center stage and address the challenge.
The buildup to this moment traces back to the recent edition of Monday Night RAW, where Jey issued a challenge to his brother Jimmy for a singles match at WrestleMania 40. Jimmy’s actions in the past, including costing Jey several championship opportunities, intensified the personal nature of this impending showdown.
Heyman’s reaction to Braxton’s approach was evident, his demeanor reflecting a momentary distraction as he and Sikoa made their way into the arena. The encounter didn’t go unnoticed, as captured in a tweet by Braxton, playfully stating, “Hey Paul… Boo!”
With WrestleMania 40 looming on the horizon, the Bloodline gears up for an action-packed weekend.
