Need a good jumping on point for bloodline story

[mrassbillygunn]

I havent been keeping up with the modern stuff on WWE tv but Im wanting to give it a go as im encouraged by some of the reviews the latest ppvs have been getting. Id like to jump on when this whole bloodline story got started/going. Anyone have any good recommendations?

Hell in a Cell 2020 I believe with Roman vs. Jey Uso is where things started to get rolling.

Thank you.

There’s an entire Bloodline video on YouTube showing everything that went down with the Bloodline up until a certain point.

As far as PLE’s go, I recommend starting at Clash at the Castle from last year.

Wash, rinse and repeat for about 2.5 years or so. Seen one you've seen em all.

It dragged on & never had a conclusion. It's nWo lite

SummerSlam 2020 was when Roman Reigns returned and set up the PLE the following week. The next SmackDown’s final scene was the first shot of the Reigns and Heyman alliance too.

Then the Jey Uso vs Roman Reigns feud is what really kicked it off, the matches were Clash of Champions 2020 and Hell in a Cell 2020, and both of those are great, as well as the episodes of SmackDown leading to them.

Then Jimmy’s return to competition in 2021 raised the stakes, for PLEs that’d start with Money in the Bank.

The end of 2021/22 was where Sami Zayn first got involved with the group (and with Brock Lesnar) so that might be worth checking out. But really you could go from Clash at the Castle and pretty much watch everything from there.

As someone else said though, WWE has done YouTube videos and playlists compiling just the key Bloodline stuff, so I’d go with that.

Thank you, thats the explanation I was looking for.

Really? No conclusion? Id expect a conclusion for a storyline that ran so long!

It’s still kind of on-going, so far only Sami Zayn and Jey Uso have left The Bloodline and Roman, Heyman, Jimmy Uso and Solo remain. I’ve enjoyed it a lot tbh, it’ll probably conclude at WrestleMania 40 if Cody manages to “finish the story”

End of 2020 or early 2021

It’s still on going, and while some are complaining about that, it’s looking like the logical endgame is Wrestlemania 40 with Jimmy/Jey/Solo facing off and taking each other out of the equation leaving Roman to face Cody alone and finally lose. Night after Wrestlemania I imagine Solo turns on Roman, seeing him as weak and taking his place with Heyman.
