nowhere to be found in WWE for several months

Let’s kick the wrestling news off with this Sami Zayn leaked video, what’s all this
about?
Well when you read that headline of a “leaked Sami Zayn video”, you may jump to some conclusions,
but this was something that we don’t see WWE do that often
So Sami Zayn had his first annual “Sami awards” on a recent edition of WWE Smackdown
Sami Zayn claimed that since the WWE Slammys are corrupted and rigged, he would host his
own yearly award show for WWE to show off who the true winners are
Sami proceeded to award himself comeback WWE superstar of the year, WWE match of the year,
and WWE superstar of the year
But there was one big issue, Big-E had switched the envelope and graphic, so Big-E was shown
and revealed as “WWE Superstar of the year” on Sami Zayn’s show
Big-E came out to accept the award before attacking Sami Zayn
That was the end of the segment, but is a nice little touch and continuation to that
segment, WWE themselves “leaked” this backstage audio of Sami Zayn having a complete
meltdown and argument with the backstage Smackdown staff
Sami was yelling and cursing at them for allowing Big-E to ruin his WWE award show
WWE Backstage reporter, Kayla Braxton, leaked the audio herself before it was later reposted
by WWE
we see no visuals of what’s happening, but we hear the audio of Sami Zayn flipping out
on everyone on this supposed “leaked WWE video”
Now obviously this isn’t a real life event and wasn’t a real situation that happened,
if this was real then WWE would not have been reposting the leaked audio themselves
WWE reposting the audio is basically the biggest giveaway that it’s fake and scripted, but
I still enjoyed it because I felt like it added that little sense of reality into the
WWE storyline
It felt like a leaked TMZ video or something ripped out of a reality show.
The WWE award show goes wrong for Sami Zayn and he goes backstage and curses everyone
out in WWE
That seems realistic and seems like something his WWE character would actually do, so I
found it to be a nice little off screen touch
Sami Zayn responded to the leaked WWE video and had this to say on twitter:
“Who recorded this??
This is a breach of privacy, take this down now.”
So Sami’s character doesn’t seem to be happy with that leak, but it’ll be interesting
to see how WWE handles this situation and if they will bring it onto television with
Sami trying to find who recorded it
Kayla Braxton was the one who first posted it, but if doesn’t mean she necessarily
recorded the actual clip
So it was a nice little off-screen addition and we’ll see if WWE continues this little
side story in any way for Sami Zayn on WWE Smackdown
—————————————
Help may be on the way for the bloodline.
Roman Reigns and Jey have been holding things down by themselves on WWE Smackdown, but you
might have forgotten about the third member of that original faction, Jey’s brother
Jimmy
Jimmy has been out of WWE action for a while after getting some surgeries done.
He did make some brief appearances towards the start of the Roman vs Jey WWE feud
He threw in the towel for Jey in the first matchup and made another appearance at WWE
Hell In A Cell by attempting to stop Roman Reigns, but he hasn’t been seen since
Reason why he hasn’t been seen is because of those injuries.
He made those appearances for WWE during the early stages of the feud while he was still
recovering, so you have to appreciate that from him
But as far as a full time return, Jey recently spoke with ProSieben MAXX and gave an update
on his brother’s WWE return
Jey had this to say:
“Definitely soon.
January/February I’m going to say.
He’s doing good.
You know he’s been watching me every week.
Inspiring him.
You know he’s calling me after every SmackDown telling me what I did wrong, what was dope,
just everything being a brother, man.
I just can’t wait to have him out here on the road with me.”
So the addition of Jimmy to the group and making his WWE return is going to be really
interesting because we don’t really know where Jimmy stands right now
Last time we saw him he was trying to give up and calm Roman Reigns down, but we haven’t
heard his thoughts on Jey aligning himself with Roman Reigns and doing all these horrible
things to the other WWE superstars
So what will Jimmy do when he returns to WWE?
Will he try to contest and go against Roman and Jey or will he automatically come back
and fall in line to join them?
I feel like Jimmy should come back by being a little unsure and on the fence about joining
Roman and that’s when Roman and Jey would have to properly break him in and force him
to fall in line
It doesn’t make sense for Jimmy to return and instantly by down with everything that
Roman and Jey are doing
It feels like you’re gonna need to slowly transition him into making that big official
heel turn
So I would expect Jimmy to be sort of like what Jey was towards the start, just undecided
about everything that’s going on
But once they do break him in, it’s going to be really interesting to see Roman, Jimmy,
and Jey all back together as the heel version of The Bloodline
It’s crazy to see the one year difference for The Bloodline in WWE.
Just one year ago they were goofy babyfaces covering people in dog food, but now they
have the potential to be one of the scariest trios WWE has seen since the shield and the
Wyatt family
So Roman and Jey have been running the main event seen as a team on WWE Smackdown, but
the addition of the returning Jimmy is really going to add a lot to the to group
We’ll have to see how Jimmy meshes with Roman and Jey
——————————-
A top superstar has gone missing from WWE Smackdown again and no one seems to know why
Lars Sullivan made his big return to WWE a few months ago right around the WWE Draft
Lars had a lousy 2019 after suffering a devastating injury and finding himself in the middle of
so many outside of the ring controversies
However, he finally made his WWE return late the this year before mysteriously disappearing
again
It seemed like WWE was picking up right where they left off at with him, by making him a
top heel, but he hasn’t been seen on WWE Smackdown in months
Reports claim that he hasn’t even been showing up to WWE tapings at all in recent weeks,
so what’s going on?
Apparently WWE wants to focus on Roman Reigns as the top heel and give him all the time
and attention right now
They don’t want to split that top heel spot between Roman and Sullivan on Smackdown, so
that also seems to be one of the reasons for his absence according to reports
But obviously Roman Reigns isn’t going anywhere, so what exactly does that mean for Lars Sullivan?
Will he just continue to sit out until Roman is out of the title picture or will he eventually
return again to WWE?
That’s the big question here that no one knows.
We know that WWE likes to wing things on a weekly basis, so it’s safe to assume that
they don’t know what the long term plan is for Roman Reigns and as a result of that,
they may have no clue what to do with Lars Sullivan either
But we’ll have to see what the future holds for Lars Sullivan on Smackdown.
Will he continue to sit out and will he be reintroduced again?
He’s been missing for so long again that you just can’t simply plug him back into
the show, he needs to be reintroduced again, so we’ll have to see how they handle that
as well
