I get Faces of Fear vibes from the thought of Tama Tonga and Jacob Fatu together.
WWE is not WCW. Can we let this story be told before dumping on it.
Why is nobody seeing this TWGH, Finally, there's somebody else who sees what's going on. Babyface bloodline Roman and the Usos vs Heel bloodline Solo, Tama, and the "Samoan Werewolf" Jacob Fatu, I believe he is the tribal chief Tonga had mentioned to Paul, that's not a spoiler that's a prediction!!..😂
@@brucedavis8625maybe, I think the Rock is the tribal chief, I think Jacob Fatu will be another member, another henchman.
2nd gen Samoan Swat Team feels to me
@garymaidman625 Solo is the tribal chief since Roman is gone, but I believe Rock is giving the orders to Solo since The Rock is High Chief
2:42 you also have to remember Solo screaming at Roman at Mania. "Finish him" and Roman saying: "I know"
i noticed this shit too it was like hey now whats up with this 👀
Yup all part of the setup.
I noticed that. Solo was pissed with Roman.
That's when we knew Solo was taking over
Haha o yes i was oof solo’s getting impatient!! 😮
Not only would Roman get a big pop if he was gone for 6 months but imagine the pop, after the six months, if he comes in to save Paul or the Usos from getting beat down. Hell, imagine the pop if he ran in to save Cody Rhodes from the new bloodline. All these ideas got me feeling like a kid all over again. Wrestling has, not only gotten cool again, but it's also gotten fun and exciting again. Can't wait to see what the next year holds!
Why would he save Cody?
@@mroptimistprime-bj4lz I didn't say he would, it would just be awesome if he did. Let a man dream! 🤣😂
@@mroptimistprime-bj4lz I swear why saving the guy who for 2 years was a pain in my ass and wanted my belt let him burn. But for the others yeah!!!
Nah nah cody why cody
Why would roman save cody
Maybe because he underestimated Cody and trying to redeem himself. On the way to beat the rock at WrestleMania 41 or 42.
Solo was always expressive and would talk sh*t on NXT quite often on the mic , he had the personality of his family he was just good at being stoic. And less goofy
BLOODLINE CIVIL WAR!!!!!!!!! Enter Jacob Futu!!!!!!!
He has 7 kids, he needs it! lol
The Usos are getting back together
High Chief is above the tribal chief, high chief acknowledging the tribal chief only means he accepts him to represent his family in the tribal hierarchy. Rock is a high chief!
@@joesiler9620 we will see what happens at the draft
And bring ZILLA with him!!!!
I like the menacing looks Solo gives. Especially the look he gave Paul when he looked at his tapped thumb then quickly glanced at Paul, and Paul getting scared.
Facts. I was getting sleepy at the 2hr point of Raw when Vince was in control over Raw the past decade
Thank you guys, this was an awesome, Busted Open episode. Bloodline more incredible stories future 👌 . Bully and Mark wrestling wisdom is fantastic .Blue print , Matt Morgan is the same way in gigantic pop podcast.
4:57 No Solo debuted at Clash of the castle. He screwed Drew
also something to think about down the road, Drew didn't forget what happened I doubt he'll just let that go, it'll be longterm storytelling
Thumbnail looks like an online ransom attempt by Mark 😂
I have total faith in HHH’s booking 🔥🔥🔥🔥
💯
someone has too he isnt a good booker
TOTAL. He’s earned it 💯
This bloodline shit is going to be as good as nWo 2000. 😂
Just wait for Double J and Big Poppa Pump to return as Bloodline Wolfpac to help Solo/Tama/Jacob Fatu/X to take Tribal Chief crown.
I busted when Tama Tonga showed up
No diddy
Diddy
Let’s just hope solo can take that role organically because I have doubts about him being the lead guy
TK needs to take lessons
i hope not, love to see more clown show
I wish he would...... wrestling would be better for it
AEW sucks right now aside from most of the matches
Tony needs to do great stories to make people want to tuned in
@@JordanODash stop already they have good stories already and feuds same old lame comments from haters there not doing storylines that never end only difference AEw doesnt suck
@@davidcoombsbestmegadethalb9780 so you say ?
No need to get tribal here my chief....
Why is Will and Bryan D fighting again ?
Swerve and Joe ?
What's Mercedes doing again ?
Jericho and Hook ?
Power house Hobbs about to walk out of another group for the 4x ?
Bucks V FTR
U come at me like the enemy coz you hv ur AEW blinders on
But I am just saying I would watch the matches at or after the PPV but I have no vested interest in following weekly episodes coz I know the matches will be good but no real build that makes you want to tune in next week and find out..... and the no.s r saying the same thing ( viewership and attendance) so I have facts on my side not just emotions......
@@JordanODash is there a point to your comments
Don't forget at one point Ronan did say Solo was going to be the next Tribal Chief. I'm guessing they are going to play it that since Roman couldn't get the job done so $olo now is, and there will probably be a match for who is the Tribal Chief between Roman and Solo and it will literally be a Bloodline civil war.
Mark Henry look like he can wrestle one more match. He's a huge guy. He's healthy.
Waiting on Tango Loa. Guerrillas of Destiny vs The Usos WRESTLEMANIA 41
Getting Hikuleo and Tonga Loa would be a something. Haku walking along side them with Rock calling him uncle would be even better. But what if down the line we get an OC reunion? Tama, Finn, AJ, and the Good Brothers just for good old times. I doubt Fale will join WWE in 5 years since he's happy at New Japan still.
I can't wait for The Samoan Werewolf debut
That nickname is so badass.
They are setting up the Usos reunion. They will feud with Jey eventually, probably after the draft. Jimmy will return and save Jey. This will lead to Jacob Fatu joining Solo's version of The Bloodline.
Then the Usos will be outnumbered which will probably lead to the original Bloodline reuniting with Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn.
Then we will get the reveal that Rock is the one calling the shots and not Solo and we might get a War Games: Bloodline Civil War that will culminate with Roman vs. Rock at Mania.
That's just my opinion.
WWE hitting on all cylinders 👏
If you remember when solo debuted on the main roster, heyman said solo was sent from the elders to be romans enforcer, and roman himself gave the blessings to solo to be his heir of the bloodline,
15:35 lmaoo bubba had me with this one 😂
solo and tommy both acknowledged a new chief on smackdown how yall missed them saying it IDK?????? Jacob Fatu new Tribal Chief INC
Before it was called the "Asiatic Spike" Terry Gordy brought it to WCCW in Dallas in the 80's and it was called the "Oriental Spike".
Don't forget Jacob Fatu's potential role in the Bloodline.
The rock’s final boss character makes this storyline so much better
Enter Zilla Fatu and the Super Samoan Spike. UA-cam it. It's so sick!
tama tonga with GoD face paint would go hard
I’m here in uk and I fucking love your guys podcast and bully’s passion everything he says you know he absolutely means ..no b.s from the bully keep up the awesome discussions great content guys ..💪🏽
Damn bloodline story is crazy overshadowing Cody’s reigns atm
I think anything The Bloodline does is going to be better than whatever they do w/ Cody. If Cody doesn't add a lil edge he's in trouble
I wonder if Rikishi and Haku will play a role at some point. Those two were a highly underrated tag team some twenty five years ago in the peak of the attitude era. It’s a shame they’re likely past the point of being able to work a match, although Haku is still arguably one of the most dangerous men on the planet even in his mid sixties.
Imagine if they did an Anoa’i vs Fatu thing.
Yo what if Rikishi is the tribal chief behind the scenes?? Lol that would be crazzzyyyy
Facts
Might explain why he wasn't present at WrestleMania 40; WWE might be saving him for something else.
Soooo after all this time... The Rock did it for 'Kishi? Kishi finally becoming the Samoan Godfather he should've been lol
@@miguelladinodevera614 lol the tribal godfather
Solo - Wins and loses matters..
Meanwhile Solo who lost like 40+ matches since beating Cena
That's why I don't think he's taking over as the Tribal Chief; I think he's remaining as enforcer and the new Tribal Chief will be Jacob Fatu.
He has 1 clean loss to Orton, a no contest with Seth, and 6 tag matches where Jimmy ate the pin. Nobody cares about house shows.
Somebody tell Blubber Ray that it's called the Samoan Spike because it's a tribute to Umaga. Hence why they do not call it the "asiatic spike" lol.
Wrong. Was a Samoan spike decades before Umaga was able to wipe his rear end
@@pinkribbonskies5731 Solo has even said he does the move as a tribute specifically to Umaga, but go on genius lol.
I was so ready to stop watching WWE if Roman won at Wrestlemania. Now I’m excited to see him return and excited for this new bloodline warfare. Also excited to watch Toma Tonga in WWE.
Jay and Jimmy will get back together when Solo and Tama become more established. There will probably a tag team match there somewhere. Roman shouldn't come back as a face though.
I'm calling it, eye for an eye, they're square now. Roman and Seth in some way will show up together. Shield maybe, or a double shocker run in.
Lance Anoa'i coming to WWE next?
you guys rock
Zilla and Jacob Fatu
Seth Rollins and R-Truth are lowkey the foundation of this great era HHH is leading.
Blood Line Civil War way down the road
Shouout to Mark for wearing that shirt featuring Mexican luchadores 🇲🇽
Still miffed at how angry he got about Kairi at Mania though.
I'noas are keeping wwe going with the storylnes it's cool
I just noticed Bullyray, l know he
has very valuable information.👍
Triple H did say that Roman’s next storyline is gonna be even bigger than the one he was just involved in with Cody. It looks like they’re setting up a Bloodline Civil War and I’m all here for it. With Solo making decisions for himself and Tama Tonga joining The Bloodline, things are shaking up. I have a feeling that we’re gonna see The Samoan Werewolf Jacob Fatu as well. I think Solo, Tonga, and Jacob will form kind of a “New Bloodline” with The Rock, and it’ll eventually set up Rock vs Roman with Roman and the Usos reuniting. This could go so many ways, Cody and Roman could even join forces to fight The Rock, sort of an “enemy of my enemy is my friend” type deal. Cause it seems that Cody has more beef with The Rock than he did with Roman. Roman was just the guy in Cody’s way of finishing his story, it wasn’t really anything personal between them, and Cody even showed some respect to Roman in the Raw after Mania. But with The Rock, it is personal to Cody.
people seem to forget that the rock is the high chief.
Solo can still be the chief of his tribe
Was the hi chief , can't be that in Hollywood and not on the battlefield, that's why he acknowledged roman
Man Solo is Trips after mania 14, Roman dropped the ball so solo picked it up and now like trips lead DX solo will run the Bloodline! This is gonna be great watch plus they giving him Tama, Jacob and God knows how many more members of the family that are awesome that people haven’t seen yet! I can wait this is gonna be great! Bloodline civil war will be great watch!
Anyone think Rock made the call that Tama was talking? Or is Solo taking over
I glad bully ray checked them on 1999 wrestling. It was the best era and wrestling we seen. Every week we wanted more and more. When smackdown and raw both wasn't enough . That they added Sunday night heat. So buddy let's be real. Wwe stop getting good around the 2009 time. Then it started back getting good around 2020 after covid hit. Covid saved wwe not because of the bloodline stuff. Because drew and the hurt business mad ewwe exciting again. Also randy and bray. We had black champions like Kofi,big e m, and bobby. Wwe made u believe that if you was the best you can achieve. Bloodline only got big because they didn't know who to put the title on and it was good to see roman heel along with the usos.
When Mark speeks ,you have to listen.
He's been there ,did that, & knows that.
He who knows, knows.
Solo is more scary and menacing than Roman. End of story. He's the Umaga with a better story. Looking forward to see what that is going to look like.
lol love ya’lls Haka faces. & you’re right. A lot of poly wrestlers use that “haka face”. Umaga & Jacob fatu also do it very well but tama has another level
I would love to see Tamina get in on the storyline, she is such a badass and has been in the WWE for so long and really only got that one good run with Nattie. She could be on one side of the Bloodline civil war and Nia Jax on the other side.
MY VISION IS ROMAN ROCK AND USOS VS SOLO, TONGA, JACOB, ZILLA
I just hope Solo really steps up and fill them shoes so he can be a great wrestler superstar someday I don’t wanna see him flop
Zilla won’t be coming in just yet,Rikishi will block that,because he doesn’t feel zilla is ready. But, he and Ney would be great tag champions
Why is everyone forgetting when Roman crowned Solo the next TRIBAL CHIEF? That is why he is now taking matters into his hands because Roman has already been dethroned 😢
Facts
I'm all in on the Bloodline, but only if the head of the "Too Cool" tribe is part of the squad. Seriously can’t wait to see him back in the ring, rocking those yellow sunglasses and the legendary stinky thong, ready to dish out some classic stinkface moves. 😎 #RikishiFatu #Stinkythong #Stinkface
The USO'S vs Guerillas Of Destiny book 📚 it Bully & Mark
Solo Bloodline and Roman Bloodline it would be Tribal Warfare in "WAR GAMES".
The shirt should say Busted TF Open
Double Samoan Spike by Solo And Zilla
When they discussion switched to bad RAW I thought of Raw Underground
solo screaming at roman “ FINISH HIM” at mania was a hint guys.
So he is acting on his own and the rock has nothing to do with all this??!
It's great time to watch WWE!!! What if jey uso is secretly calling the shots he was sopost to be the next tribal chief before solo... What if we get the WWE version of the bullet club the good brothers, Tama ,aj styles, finn balor, Cody Rhodes was all members at one point. Seth and Roman if face could reunite as the shield. This year I could be big on factions.
wwe SUCKS
After watching this analysis, now I can't wait to see how this story goes from here
There was some video on here saying now that Roman and Rock is gone. What next? I am like then its the next one up. Something this regime is showing us that they have the talent to step up. You just have to get them to that point. I am so looking forward to this.
Jecob will probably debute when Roman comes back, as a new enforcer of the og bloodline
NXT Gold is the RAW and Smackdown roster.
Personally after seeing Cody finally get his chance I think we now need to migrate towards seeing Rock and Roman since we didn't get it at WrestleMania I think now more than ever we need to see Rock versus Roman in my opinion as great as Romans is the tribal Chief the one person he had yet to beat to truly call himself the greatest is the superior cousin which happens to be the Rock I just feel like for the villain that Roman Reigns is character has been up to this point he was somewhat incomplete and I feel like beating the rock with solidify Roman to a level we may not have seen before in the modern era the Clashing of two extremely massive egos play Given that they're from the same family I think would be a really awesome story to tell

Tama Tonga is also a founding member of the Bullet Club.
I don’t think they are reforming g the Bullet club
Yes he is but that group belongs in aew not the WWE
More importantly he and Tonga are G.O.D…Tama is a tag team wrestler.
@@benjaminvalenti1242 Bullet Club is from NJPW.
@@benjaminvalenti1242 true
I'm ready for Bloodline: Samoan Civil War.
I would love to even see Tamina and Nia Jax even get in on it. Tamina is still signed, but just not being used on TV.
im ready foir the bloodline to be over already this is so dumb to keep it going
@@davidcoombsbestmegadethalb9780 you sound like a jabroni and thrash metal is dumb
@@NoPitBullLeftBehindTamina retired
@@NoPitBullLeftBehindDakota Kai is Samoan
I agree with Dave, solo put himself into a main event level this past week. Felt like hhh taking over dx the night after hbk lost to Austin.
The best comparison I can think of!
25:49 HHH worked for NXT and now works for main roster. He knows "What's best for business"
Yeah, giving you all his indy darlings with no storylines or personalities attatched to them. Including Johnny Sameface and Hobo Sami Zayn.
@@caterpie911 Johnny Gargano had multiple storylines in NXT, from his long running feud with Ciampa, the matches with Cole, and his own group.
Zayn just had one of the best matches on WM 40, and the pop of the night last night.
What kind of bathtub meth are you smoking?
@@WarGhoulKharas "You were my friend and betrayed me" is the only program besides long matches with injury-prone indy marks is all that Noseman knows how to do. I mean he even brought back Shit Row and that fat Oompah Loompah Bronson Reed. And if you seriously think that that match was one of the best, then the one smoking is you. A guy who looks like the homeless brother of Spike Dudley gets beat around by a guy that should realistically squash him im 10 seconds, only to get up, no sell the entire match, and win after a brainbuster and two kicks is just embarrassing nothing more. And then he continues to no sell the match and celebrate.
Lay off the meth or bath salts. Move out of the trailer park. Do better. @@caterpie911
You people suck
An ongoing excellent storyline making a debut of someone wwe audience doesn't know, so impactful and instantly relevant. Tony khan should take notes. All he does is ruin the momentum of the free agents he signed
Irs always weird to me hear wwe fans not knowing anything about wrestling outside of wwe because I'm like you don't know who that is really im like he was part of the og bullet club or with AJ Styles being in TNA and ROH
@@Chewbacca89you are thinking of wwe fans as a whole, remember they have a higher percentage of casual fans. the hardcores do know outside of wee but it’s always in sections, some know the british scene, some know the japan scene, but wwe in general has casual fans that know there are other wrestling promotions but don’t really look into it.
@@Chewbacca89 i know who he is. Majority of casual wwe fans don't. Idk why you are crying about not knowing something. I had no idea who leo di caprio was before titanic and that's fine because titanic was global powerhouse which brought him recognition and movies before that were good but not a juggernaut. His previous movies only made him recognized among his peers and some watchers. Titanic made him relevant for ages. Like he could have stopped working after titanic and still everyone would know him. Wwe is titanic in wrestling, it makes you recognized and whatever tama tonga did before that is simoly indy regional cinema, it's good, gives him recognition in his peers and people who watch regional stuff but it's not titanic or wwe. Simply it's normal for wwe fans to not know him. Just like people don't watch all movies and know all actors and aren't expected to same way people don't need to know all wrestlers or watch all wrestling promotions. Ted talk over.
@@zzrr933because these neckbeards like to gate keep wrestling and they thinking knowing more about other fans makes them invincible. Like wow he knows Tama Tonga!! So does everyone in the IWC for the past 10 years.
@@zzrr933 I'm not crying I just find it funny in a way when I tell them who they are and their just like what's TNA whats ROH or NJPW I haven't watched any British indie companies to my knowledge but I might be wrong there might have been a few but either way I understand what you are saying
Where is the pink robe? Cody won, where is the pink robe???????
Zila should go to NXT
Roman is not locking his wounds like you say he is
If you watched his ticktock
Roman himself said yesterday we mourned today is day 1
So he is starting his next chapter which is going not a baby face heel but a nerdy aggressive villionus heel so watch out he is still the tribal Chief ☝🏼
I was ready for the bloodline to end for awhile but when the rock came back and progressed the story i got interested again now with tama tonga and possibly jacob fatu
Jacob Fatu and Tama Tongas brother Hakeleo is coming Cody Rhodes beware.
I saw some fan video of Solo vs Jey in the dark match after Smackdown, and you could already see a big change in the way Solo acted. He interacted with the audience quite a bit, talking a lot, being very expressive. Can't wait to see this new side of him unveiled as the weeks go on.
Can't wait for him to go unhinged
He needs to try to get his fat ass in shape, I know that much.
I just clicked because of Mark's shirt 😂😂😂
I hope that they don't try to repeat the whole storyline that Roman had with Solo. I'm down with the Tribal Heir coming for his position, but let's not try to put him in the position that Roman was in for the last 4 years. I want Solo to have his own story not a remake of Roman's.
Jacob Fatu and then Zilla. GAME OVER
I agree with Bully about Sikoa regarding the onion peeling starting to happen, a part of his maturation
Y'all think they could bring in Nia and have some female aspects to the bloodline?
1:07
Iconic.
SOMEBODY GON’ GET THEIR WIG SPLIT
I marked out 😂
Lmao. Yeah hall of pain mark..friggin legendary.
Mark Henry thinks he speaks for everyone definitely that Hogan B's we don't have to accept crap if he apologize nobody gives zero f about your opinion you mark
Tony kahn is out of his league. He’s a wwe mark who jumps at every chance he gets to hire ex wwe talent and pushes them instead of the new raw talent he has. You can’t beat wwe with bitter ex wwe talent let alone your new talent lol. Tony embarassed himself with the punk footage because all eyes were on Wrestlemania and out of spite he tries to get ratings by using the punk footage lol, so sad what a clown
If someone from Busted Open reads this, can you ask Mark where he got that shirt?! Those are 3 of my dads childhood heroes and would look to snag him one for Father's Day. Thanks!
Good to see evryone is a fan of WWE regardless where they are WWE is cooking these past few years
The usos vs tama Tonga and Jacob fatu
My guess is rock roman and usos vs Tama Tonga, Solo Sikoa and Zilla & Jacob
I love it when Bubba talks his creative thoughts it gets me excited all the time TKO NEED HIM
Hasn't Solo lost every match since Crown Jewel? How is he allowed to stay but Jimmy is out after one loss?
SOLO lost to jey after on smackdown so what happens then? who should take him out?
Disclaimer: Tony Khan feared for his life when Tama Tonga showed up on SmackDown and later called AEW a “midcard” company 😂
your wrong
Solo made his main roster debut at Clash At The Castle or am I wrong?
