After Heyman is hospitalised during The Bloodline’s assault, chaos breaks out
On June 28, the energy inside Madison Square Garden changed from thrilling to utterly chaotic when a fight that left iconic manager Paul Heyman hospitalised broke out on WWE’s Friday Night SmackDown. The Bloodline, led by Solo Sikoa, squared off against their forthcoming WWE Money in the Bank opponents Randy Orton, Kevin Owens, and Cody Rhodes on a high-stakes and tense start to the evening. The audience had no idea that The Bloodline Acknowledgment event would be the setting for the true drama.
The Ceremony of the Bloodline
When Solo Sikoa, accompanied by Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, and the just-admitted Jacob Fatu, sought recognition from every member in attendance—including Paul Heyman—during The Bloodline’s official acknowledgment ceremony, the tension increased. Clearly affected, Heyman hesitated to refer to Solo Sikoa as the “Tribal Chief,” a title Solo appeared ready to embrace. Emotions ran high.
After a startling turn of events, Solo lost patience and gave Heyman a crushing Samoan Spike. Shortly after, Jacob Fatu performed a daring high-flying manoeuvre from the top rope. Things went south fast as the three dropped a triple powerbomb on Heyman, leaving him unable to move in the ring.
Heyman’s Scary Departure
Viewers saw the upsetting scene of medical professionals running to Heyman’s rescue as the cameras zoomed away.
