Sami Zayn, a former member of The Bloodline, has recently expressed his support for the group’s newest addition, CM Punk, on WWE SmackDown. The news of Punk joining Roman Reigns’ team for the upcoming Survivor Series: WarGames 2024 Premium Live Event has sent ripples throughout the WWE universe, with many fans eager to see how the veteran wrestler will fit in with the group. Punk and Paul Heyman, the group’s leader, have a long history together, dating back to Punk’s first stint in the WWE, and it’s no surprise that Heyman would bring Punk in to join The Bloodline.
Meanwhile, Sami Zayn’s journey back to The Bloodline has been a winding one. After betraying Roman Reigns earlier this year, it seemed unlikely that Zayn would ever return to the group, but a series of events, including a chance encounter with Reigns at Crown Jewel 2024, led to Zayn re-pledging his allegiance to the group. Now, with Punk on board, Zayn is embracing his new role within the group, and his tweet reacting to Punk’s addition features a photo of The Bloodline’s signature “ones” gesture, with Punk doing his signature “Go To Sleep” pose.
The addition of Punk to The Bloodline has sparked speculation about what the future holds for Zayn, with WWE analyst Matt Camp predicting that Zayn will eventually face Kevin Owens, a long-time thorn in the side of The Bloodline. Camp believes that a babyface Bloodline Sami Zayn against a heel Kevin Owens could lead to one of the best matches in recent history, given the longtime rivalry between the two.
Owens has been feuding with Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton in recent weeks, and it seems likely that he will soon be challenging for the Undisputed WWE Championship. Meanwhile, Zayn’s addition to The Bloodline sets him up for a potential showdown against Owens in the near future, with Punk and Zayn on the same team, it’s clear that The Bloodline is looking to make a big impact in the upcoming WarGames match.
