The WWE Draft 2024 was set to shake things up. Wrestlers from all three brands are set to be traded, and groups like The Judgment Day and The Bloodline were in the crosshairs. Could they stay together on the same show, or would they have to be disbanded? The first round of the WWE Draft 2024 was kicked off on WWE SmackDown, and The Bloodline got an answer. Not only did that happen, but a few exciting announcements related to them were made.

Since Roman Reigns lost at WrestleMania XL, big changes have occurred in The Bloodline. Solo Sikoa is the new leader, with Tama Tonga being the latest member.

The show opened with the announcement of the WWE Draft 2024 but was followed by shocking news. Wise man Paul Heyman announced in a backstage interview that Roman Reigns had withdrawn his name from the Draft. While this means he will continue on WWE SmackDown, the rest of The Bloodline were unhappy with the news. Mid-way through the show, Sikoa and Tonga arrived and questioned Heyman about his announcement.

Later on, during the third round of the WWE Drafts, it was revealed that The Bloodline was staying on SmackDown. Sikoa, Tonga, Reigns, and Heyman will continue on the Blue Brand. With the inclusion on Tonga and the rumored debut of Jacob Fatu, fans had predicted that The Bloodline would be staying together either exactly where they are or on RAW. Many fans have theorized that Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson may have had something to do with this Draft choice. He is rumored to be the new Tribal Chief. Even their main target, Cody Rhodes, is on SmackDown moving forward.

With Rhodes now on the Blue Brand as The Bloodline, things will get dicey once their ongoing feuds are over. Rhodes will battle AJ Styles for the WWE Undisputed Universal title at Backlash. Sikoa and Tonga will face Randy Orton and Kevin Owens at the same PLE. Once everything is dusted, The Bloodline will eventually turn its sights on Rhodes.

Fans suspect this will happen once The Rock is set to return either at SummerSlam or Mania XLI. During this feud, fans hope to see the original lineup of The Bloodline with Reigns and The Usos take on the new one. What are your thoughts on this Draft pick? Are you happy with it?
