This felt like the official jump-the-shark moment.
Guess they couldn't get Jacob or Zilla to interfere.
(You could have Roman cut a promo saying he's sending Zilla back down to dominate Booker T's promotion afterward to explain why he's not showing up again)

Vince Russo is proud of how many freaking swerves they pile onto this story.

So, to anyone who said to wait and see after Mania. Do you still think they have a long term plan? Yes. Ok, counterpoint. The long term plan sucks. |

I cannot even begin to imagine caring enough about this story to want Jimmy to explain it. Roman Reigns has plot armor and every single person he interacts with turns into a dumbass, that's the reason.

Ok, counterpoint. The long term plan sucks. Not to me it doesn't. And not to however many people still watch. |

This ending was so dumb.
Like even the whole tribal combat thing was pointless in the end.
This is late 90’s NWO booking at this point.

The Elder Gods aren't fans of Jey, are they? Always treating him like Charlie Brown, moving the football out of the way whenever he's about to beat Roman.

Good for you that you're entertained by it but this shit is brutal. Business says otherwise with them doing well The long term plan is divisive but it is working for them |

They had no better idea to keep this thing going. So they went full late 90’s WCW.

Every time it feels like something's about to happen to Roman it just... doesn't happen. |

Pick up the phone, Jey, and call Sami. Make amends. And kick the shit out of the Bloodline.

Business says otherwise with them doing well The long term plan is divisive but it is working for them I can't deny that the storyline has peaked very well at times But this feels like the second worst low point since Cody loss, just like WCW Russo shit, not a fan at all. Feels like they're stretching like Laffy Taffy now. |

In a twisted, f***ed up family dynamic way it makes sense. Jim done seen firsthand what being the Tribal Chief does to someone. Save your brother and spare him from that deal with the devil
