2. Sami Zayn & Kevin Owens reunite to take down The Bloodline
The WWE Universe finally saw a reunion between Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn on Friday Night SmackDown. The Bloodline has controlled WWE’s balance of power. It took having a common enemy for these men to co-exist again. Realistically, an American Nightmare could not unite them.
Cody Rhodes also shares that same nemesis. He opposes Roman Reigns at WrestleMania concerning his titles. The Prodigal son returned to fulfill the dream of a prominent father. Roman’s relatives stand in their way. Rhodes has assisted Zayn lately on TV, while Owens doesn’t need Sami’s friendship to destroy Reigns, Jimmy, Jey, & Solo, & Paul Heyman.
