Roman Reigns Finally Reveals Biggest Mistake Months After Bloodline Betrayal

Roman Reigns finally admitted the biggest mistake he made, which led to The Bloodline getting betrayed months ago.

After serving as the “Wise Man” for almost five years for The Bloodline and running roughshod throughout the entire WWE, Paul Heyman betrayed his “Tribal Chief” Roman Reigns and even CM Punk, whom he accompanied at Night 2 of WrestleMania 41, to join Seth Rollins and create The Vision. However, his association with The Visionary didn’t last long as he, Bron Breakker, and Bronson Reed turned on their leader on RAW after Crown Jewel.

During an interview with Jackie Redmond posted on WWE’s YouTube channel ahead of Survivor Series: WarGames, Reigns gave props to Heyman and praised the former Wise Man for finding future talents.

“The old Wise Man, I think it’s a beautiful mix of both. I think he’s one of those guys where yes, all his marbles are in one basket. So does he care about this industry? Of Course. This is where he’s made his career, his life, his livelihood. His superpowers, he can identify who that future star could be. He’s gonna ride him ’til the wheels fall off and then find the next guy, so I think he’s doing exactly what he’s set out to do,” Reigns said.

The Original Tribal Chief then disclosed that he should’ve kept his empire within his Bloodline, his actual family, and not trust The Vision’s “Oracle.”

“And that’s why for me, should have kept it simple. Should have kept it family only, bloodline only, people with the same blood coursing through the same veins. That was my biggest mistake,” he added.

Roman Reigns Says His Teammates Should Defer To Him At Survivor Series

When asked about how much control he has over his WarGames team, Roman Reigns made it clear that he’s the only one who can lead emphatically and that his place on the mountain top is cemented.

The Original Tribal Chief then declared that if Cody Rhodes, CM Punk, Jimmy Uso, and Jey Uso want to win, they should all listen to him.

“There’s never been a superstar, there’s never been a top guy that led others like me. My place at the head of the table is cemented. That’s where I belong. If they wanna win, they’ll listen to me,” Reigns claimed.
