The feud between The Bloodline and Cody Rhodes is intensifying with each passing week on SmackDown. Along with him, Kevin Owens and Randy Orton have also been feuding with the dominant group for months now. Unfortunately for the babyface trio, Solo Sikoa and his allies have wreaked havoc by dismantling them week after week.
On the latest episode of SmackDown, The American Nightmare came out to address the WWE Universe. He talked about what happened to his best friend Randy Orton on last week’s episode of SmackDown. Cody Rhodes couldn’t bear the guilt of watching The Bloodline destroy The Legend Killer while being helpless. However, he was soon interrupted by Grayson Waller and Austin Theory, ultimately setting up a tag team match in the main event.
The four wrestlers delivered an electrifying performance, but ultimately, Rhodes and Kevin Owens emerged victorious in the main event. However, their celebrations were cut short by The Bloodline, who began annihilating the duo. Although they tried to put up a fight, they were no match for the dangerous Jacob Fatu. The dominant force put the champ through the table, just as they did to Orton.
They have reminded Rhodes not to mess with them week after week. They even won the six-man tag team match at the Money in the Bank PLE. The former Stardust will defend his Undisputed WWE Title against the self-proclaimed Tribal Chief at SummerSlam. It wouldn’t be surprising if the result is influenced by The Bloodline’s shenanigans.
Fans react to The Bloodline’s beatdown on Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens on SmackDown
Fans once again witnessed The Bloodline wreaking havoc on Rhodes and his allies and started discussing it on social media. Some fans understood the logic behind the group being so dominant, while others were frustrated to see the same ending repeatedly.
One fan stated that WWE was doing this to make Solo Sikoa a credible heel on SmackDown. Another fan was annoyed and on the verge of not watching the show again. Some fans liked the segment and called it the reason for the high ratings of the blue brand. Here are some of the top reactions from fans:
They have too. It’s to really push Solo haha
I still think it’s awsome!
It’s getting really old. At the point I’m going to stop watching again
— Shadows (@Shadows653) July 20, 2024Well, it's obvious that the highest rating last week since wrestlemania of over 2.3 million. People are definitely enjoying what's happening and as far as some of the other wrestling shows that can't even get 800,000 people so it shows who's watching what and tickets and ratings…
— Todd Bentley (@IamToddBentley) July 20, 2024Wwe needs to do the right thing and let Solo win the title. His title reign will not be as boring as Cody's reign is tbh
— Muti u Rehman ZarGar (@ZarGar_Speaks) July 20, 2024I usually work during #Smackdown but record…. can count on one hand the number of times I've actually watched last 2mo, by the time I get home I've been spoiled by the internet… plus this boring New Bloodline stuff is usually where I change the channel or bathroom break

One user clamored for Roman Reigns to finally return and wished that Jacob Fatu would become the leader instead of Solo. Another user compared them to The Shield and noted that they did the same thing until they split up. Overall, the WWE Universe was quite frustrated with the repeated endings over the past few weeks on SmackDown.
