Filler War has honestly been the worst outcome from all that momentum built up by the bloodline storyline. 2 months of material stretched out of over 5 months.

I wish Bloodline would be done and Reigns goes demon mode to stay champion.

The bullshyt with all these tag matches be driving me mad with a World Title not being defended. Like damn... Put AJ Styles in a title match or something. If you're gonna give me filler atleast be something that I haven't seen in 5 years.
I was saying the night of wrestlemania 38 that even Jimmy & Jey retaining while Roman lost to Brock would be more interesting than what we’ve gotten since because we could see him get jealous and lash out at them while he’s the only one with no gold and we could at least get some new title matchups along the way. Imagine how bad this shyt would be if they hadn’t stumbled into Sami becoming the honorary Uce. He single handedly revived an angle that was running on fumes as far back as 18 months ago and essentially carried it for the back half of 2022 and the first 2 months of 2023 even as Roman took a 3 month vacation in the spring last year and then went another 3 months without defending the belt last fall/winter while Drew in September & Matt Riddle in June on a random smackdown taping were the only full time wrestlers Roman faced for the belt from February last year until KO at the Royal rumble. Now we just sat through Roman not defending the belt for 4 months and likely won’t see him defend it for another 3 months before we get a filler feud at the Royal Rumble to buy time until wrestlemania. We know he isn’t losing it at a b level pay per view or the survivor series (if the event isn’t that dumb brand warfare nonsense full of non title matches again), and the rumble is rarely ever a time we see a new champ. I think the rock in 2013 & John Cena (who’d lose it a month later) in 2017 are the only times in the past 15 years the title changed hands at the rumble.

Basically we have nothing but filler for the next 6 months in regards to Roman since it’s obvious he’ll only ever drop it at wrestlemania and no other face is really over at the main event level on smackdown anyway.

Jimmy simple wants to be the Tribal Chief :manny:

Jimmy turns on Roman because he’s sick of Roman and his ego.

Jey sides with him just off of the fact that they are twins and are ride or die.

Roman and Solo take out Jimmy because he is out of pocket.

Jimmy takes out Jey because he’s jealous of his twin getting too much shine is on the verge of garnering the title of Tribal Chief.

All in all Jimmy is trying to become drunk with power by any means. No pun intended.

I can accept this, I suppose it’s time for Jimmy to get some main character time. It could be argued that if he wanted to become tribal chief he could’ve challenged Jey afterwards…so Jimmy better cut the promo of a lifetime on Friday to explain all this

But deep down he probably doesn't want to see his brother have that title of tribal chief be bestowed upon him. He rather snake him then do it the code of honor way.

Nevertheless can't wait for his promo on Friday.

This is what Roman needs to do to end his run as champion. Bloodline needs to really die off.

He needs to go on a super dominant run with clean wins till Mania. They gotta chill with the overbooking fukkery. It's too repetitive.

People will complain about that too
