    Kevin Owens achieved a lot within his WWE career. The personality that he has outside of the ring, I'm not surprised he has a more relaxed approach when it comes to title runs. He doesn't mind doing them if creative wants to put a title on him. He would do the best that he can to help elevate that title. Owens is a grand slam champion, had a lot of memorable moments in WWE, he main evented Wrestlemania twice, one with Stone Cold Steve Austin and another in a tag team match with his best friend, Sami Zayn, vs the Usos. He's just having fun at work and getting paid for it.

    Kevin Owens is also doing wrestling a service by not doing so. It allows the development of wrestlers and their statuses as the role he would usually take as a champ is being used on a younger guy now. Owens is smart and one of the most commendable guys in wrestling not taking title positions from the future guys.

    I gotta be honest, I didn't like KO at first. Dunno why, but it just didn't click really. But the last few years he got more and more funny and meta. Calling out (stupid) wrestling tropes or rather, calling out other wrestlers for not adhering to them - it's brilliant. Him and Randy are a great team too, I love to see that side of RKO as well. Yes I know, at some point they'll propably turn on each other, but I'm gonna enjoy the ride (and if they keep it up, all the better).

    I think they might wait awhile to debut Fatu. I think the USOs will get back together and then Leo Tonga (hikeleo) tipping the scales considerably back in the new bloodlines favor. Then Roman comes back evening the odds a bit and that’s when Jacob debuts. So then they beef back and forth til war games where we see some crazy shit like jey convincing Sami and KO to join forces with Roman lol.

    I kinda dig the current Bloodline stuff still, bringing in the new guys etc is all a good way of bringing in new talent - especially when its the well kept surprise. My only real gripe is how poorly they've covered Roman's absence. The guy has earned his time off, and I'm very excited for his eventual return - potentially as a babyface to "fix" the new direction the bloodline has gone in etc. But he was the pivotal part of the whole stable, and I feel he should've had a more impactful storyline exit rather than just "I leave the wiseman in charge"

    Really liking this new chapter for the bloodline. Do you think when Fatu joins the bloodline and when Roman and Jimmy comes back, They will build up to a Roman and Rock feud, as the Rock would be the one behind This new bloodline 2.0? and going after Roman saying you just dropped the ball and the head of the table is not supposed to fail? In which this will set up a program between Rock and Roman leading to a match at wrestlemania where the winner takes head of the table role.

I'm still curious what this means for Jacob Fatu unless he isn't going to become part of the Bloodline right away. Or maybe he'll join up on the Usos's side? Also, it seems Haku's placement in the Hall of Fame has more meaning than we knew. I wonder what Hikuleo's contract status is now? Could we get a full-on Guerrillas of Destiny takeover? Let's all take a moment to realize the founding members of the Bullet Club are now all in the WWE. Fenix is injured again... RESET THE COUNTER! Again
