Any unholy union could be on the horizon in WWE.
During the October 6 episode of SmackDown, The Judgment Day were seen inside The Bloodline's locker room, waiting for Jimmy Uso, Paul Heyman, and Solo Sikoa. When they arrived, Rhea Ripley pulled Paul Heyman aside for a private conversation.
Though details are scarce, Ripley appears to have proposed a partnership between The Judgment Day and The Bloodline against a common cause. Heyman was receptive to the idea, saying that he was mad that he didn't think of it. When he explained that he needed to get Roman's approval, Rhea insisted that it was approved, positioning herself as the top decision maker. She then told Paul to acknowledge her.
Heyman cautioned Rhea before she exited the room, allowing him to call The Tribal Chief. Later in the show, Heyman came to the ring and could be heard telling Rhea that it was authorized. No further specifics on length of partnership or anything else were stated.
The Judgment Day are scheduled to face Jey Uso and Cody Rhodes at WWE Fastlane, while The Bloodline will face John Cena and LA Knight. The updated card for Fastlane can be seen here.
