It’s pretty incredible! Right down to Paul Hayman! It all makes sense! Dang, they need to show this show before the next few Raws, SmackDown, and Elimination Chamber! It could make people see how well they have built this story. Thank you and your team for all the time and hard work you all put into this show. It was one of the best and I understand it all so much more and even respect for everyone involved with putting the bloodline story together. They have done an incredible job doing it! Oh and again, great job on this show. Definitely one of my new favorites!

As id hoped that was a "superb" look back on the Anoa'i family tree..and im also happy yall "acknowledged" the fact that Rock has called Haku family and in turn the Tongans as well so ty for that. 👍

Great job to everyone involved. Still confused as hell 😂

This is the best video WrestleTalk have put together. Informative, clean… and Samoa Joe. I’m a massive fan of the vision and community you have created. I’d love more of these types of videos than the click bait ones. Have a nice evening all 🍻

Unbelievable job guys! Amazing video point Thank you so much for the hard work! Also, you have to love Luke’s comedy!

This is a great video, but I do wish that it covered The Rocks anointment as High Chief by King Malietoa Tanumafili II of Samoa in 2004, which is what places Dwayne above the Tribal Chief in Samoan culture. I feel like that's going to be an important plot point in the coming year of storylines and it's not touched upon in this video, which would be the perfect place to cover it

Luke's Fred Durst voice got me cackling. 😂💀

I love the idea of Oli trying to do this serious documentary and Luke's just sat at the table with him playing with his action figures, like this is how they always do things at WrestleTalk.

What an amazing breakdown of the Tribal Chief character and everything else in the Bloodline history. I've watched a few videos on this topic and this is by far my favorite.

THIS IS BRILLIANT & SO CAPTIVATING. THANK YOU WRESTLETALK ❤

What a fantastic video! Amazing work, guys and girls at Wrestletalk... After watching this I think that Roman's "Tribal Chief" character is one if not the wrestling character with the most depth I have ever come across in my time as a wrestling fan. And it explains why the bloodline story was at its peak when it was about the family and the inner conflicts in the family. It's amazing what Roman, Paul Heyman and WWE have created since Roman returned and turned in the summer of 2020. I am now going to watch the Rick Rubin interview with Paul Heyman.

Paul Heyman said it best back in 2015. “Something about a Samoan getting in the ring, it’s like a bird to air; fish to water. It is in a Samoan’s blood to get in the ring.” That stuck with me, what an incredible dynasty of dominance. Great video 👍

Man i love watching Ollie go insane

THAT ENDING THO!!!

Very impressive video and very funny. The Jon Moxley part had me in stitches. Great job

Really well put together piece here guys. Informative, funny and definitely on brand. Thank you.

This was a great video, but there were a few key points left out. While “Counterfeit” was the first single you left out the second single of “Sour” followed by the last single from the album to make the band famous the remix of “Faith”. Also for “Significant Other” the second single was “Rearranged” followed by “N 2gether now” that’s why the music videos are actually linked from one to the next. Otherwise good information there.

The breakdown of the “acknowledge me” catchphrase has made the storyline even better and it didn’t need to get any better. Real life politics in wrestling makes it better

So Samoan Joe needs to be a blood brother to Roman Reigns to further grow the family, huh?

Wait, so if Haku is part of the Bloodline due to The Rock considering him his Uncle, that means Tama Tonga is Rock's cousin. Idk what his contract status is but if they're really serious about Corporate High Chief heel Rock, then they should bring Tama in and have him act as The Rock's personal enforcer and his "eyes and ears" for when he's not here. They can even have tensions between him and Roman as Tama answers directly to The Rock and does not have to obey Roman's orders Edit: Welp...
