Everyone in the babyface team has crossed paths with The Bloodline in the past, with Drew McIntyre recently feuding with Roman Reigns for the Undisputed Universal Championship. At Clash at the Castle, Drew McIntyre and Roman Reigns set the stage for the World Championship.

McIntyre was on the verge of winning the World Championship when Solo Sikoa interfered and cost him the match. The feud between Reigns and McIntyre was a decent one, as the build-up was good, and fans would surely want to see more of both of them.

During a recent interview with CricketNext, Drew McIntyre stated Roman Reigns isn’t as much of a workhorse as he used to be. McIntyre said that Reigns is undoubtedly an incredible in-ring performer but does not work hard as he used to.

Drew McIntyre hasn’t gotten over his loss at the Clash at the Castle PLE and aims to take down Roman Reigns and become the World Champion. Members of the Bloodline have played a significant role in Reigns’ championship victories, as he has relied on them most of the time.

In the same interview, McIntyre spoke of how Reigns has become insecure and wants to be surrounded by his men to ensure he remains champion. McIntyre said that after his defeat at the Clash at the Castle, he thought of forming his faction to take down the bloodline.

“He’s [Roman Reigns] now the man. He’s become very insecure, and surrounded himself with yes men……. after Clash at the Castle, where he introduced Solo Sikoa to make sure I didn’t beat Roman, I’m probably gonna have to look at forming an army of my own because right now they’re probably the most dominant faction of all time.”
