Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns have had a long-standing rivalry with each other, which has been well-documented. However, both superstars are currently on the same page as they have been battling a common enemy—The Bloodline. Reigns and Rhodes have joined forces to take on Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu in a tag team match at Bad Blood.
With both superstars seeking vengeance from the heel faction, their unlikely alliance could eventually lead to astounding things. There is a good chance that The American Nightmare and The OTC could pursue the WWE Tag Team Championship, which currently rests on Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa’s shoulders.
Let’s look at three signs Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns will win the WWE Tag Team Championship from The Bloodline.
3. Both are hell-bent on ending The Bloodline’s dominance
WWE’s two biggest stars, Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes, are currently entwined in the same storyline, as they have a common enemy. Both superstars are eager to dismantle The Bloodline and end their domination. This seems to be a major indication that a simple victory over Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu at Bad Blood may not be their end goal.
Roman and Cody might not stop until they take away everything from The Bloodline, and one of the things that adorns the heel faction is the WWE Tag Team Championship. Hence, The American Nightmare, along with The Original Tribal Chief, could set out on a quest to capture the coveted title from Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa.
The fact that both Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes are hell-bent on the total annihilation of The Bloodline’s dominance is a major sign that they will likely chase and win the WWE Tag Team Championship.
2. Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes are on unstoppable momentum
Cody Rhodes has been invincible since capturing the Undisputed WWE Championship at WrestleMania XL, while Roman Reigns has also been red hot ever since his monumental return at SummerSlam. The fact that both superstars are on unstoppable momentum and formed an unlikely alliance seems to indicate that they may be getting prepared for a major run as a tag team.
The company has a very good opportunity to capitalize on their newly formed alliance. This will not only put The OTC in the title picture again, but it will also pave the way for The American Nightmare to become a double champion.
Moreover, Roman and Cody capturing the coveted title from The Bloodline will add depth to their rivalry with Sikoa’s faction.
1. Fans have been rallying behind their unlikely alliance
Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns, two of the biggest rivals in this industry, joining forces is something that no one would have imagined a few months ago. However, when it happened, it received a thunderous buzz from the WWE Universe. Fans have been rallying behind them and wanting to see how things play out between the two former nemeses.
WWE’s creative regime under Triple H is believed to listen to the voices of the fans. Hence, with the WWE Universe excited and invested to see Roman and Cody together, this is seemingly a major sign that the company could continue their alliance. It could eventually lead to them chasing the WWE Tag Team Championship after Bad Blood and winning the coveted title.
Moreover, with Crown Jewel being the next PLE after Bad Blood, a match of this magnitude is likely to happen at the Saudi extravaganza. The American Nightmare could team up with Roman Reigns to take on Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa for the WWE Tag Team Championship.
