Paul Heyman: I Don't Think We're In The Third Inning Yet With The Bloodline

Paul Heyman believes The Bloodline is just getting started.

After WrestleMania 39, Paul Heyman made headlines by saying that Bloodline story was in the bottom of the third. Over a year later, The Bloodline storyline is still at the forefront of WWE television.

Speaking to Sam Roberts on Not Sam Wrestling, Heyman was asked if there was any concern that the Bloodline story might be downgraded when Triple H took over creative duties from Vince McMahon.

"I say this with all false humility aside. I could not imagine someone coming in, in this era, and saying, 'Yeah, I've seen enough of the Bloodline. Enough of them. Alright, Roman, thanks a lot; see you later.' Some people tried to rail me over the coals last year, 'Paul Heyman said they're only in the third inning. What a jerk off Paul Heyman is.' I have news for you, I don't even think we're in the third inning yet.' Now that you see the emergence of Solo and Jacob Fatu and the Tongans and the fact that they are a real threat, the first time, a real threat to Roman Reigns' dominance, to Roman Reigns sitting at the Head of the Table, to Roman Reigns being the top star, to Roman Reigns actually being the Tribal Chief, how many stories can we tell from the position that we're in now. You don't know what Jimmy Uso's stance on this is. You don't know what Jey Uso's stance on this is. You don't know if or when The Wiseman will return. You don't know who else Solo may or may not have in his back pocket ready to debut. You don't know what Roman Reigns' moves, what my moves, what anybody's moves can be. All you know is that Roman Reigns is back, he's back to reclaim the title of Tribal Chief from Solo, and Solo has so much backup right now that Roman is in deep, deep, deep trouble.

"I can't imagine someone coming into power in this company and saying, 'We've told the entire story of the Bloodline.' I see someone coming into power and saying, 'Oh my God, look what I get to play with now.'"

Heyman has been off television since being put through a table by Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu, Tama Tonga, & Tonga Loa on the June 28th episode of WWE SmackDown.
