CM Punk is all set to join forces with The OG Bloodline and Roman Reigns at Survivor Series this Saturday. On last night’s SmackDown, the two icons sat down for an intense conversation, exchanging candid thoughts about each other. However, the segment took a dramatic turn when Punk left Reigns stunned with a shocking revelation.

Reigns made it clear that he did not need Punk’s help, but The Best in the World had his own agenda. Punk revealed that his decision to join forces was driven by a desire to seek retribution for what Solo Sikoa did to Paul Heyman at Madison Square Garden. However, Punk made one thing crystal clear: after WarGames, The Wiseman will owe him a favor.

My friend [Paul Heyman], our wiseman, will owe me a favor.

The Second City Saint emphasized his point with conviction, leaving The OTC visibly perplexed. As Punk exited, Reigns turned to Heyman, questioning the nature of the favor Punk had mentioned. The Hall of Famer, however, deflected, insisting that the focus should remain on the WarGames match for now, promising to address the favor after Survivor Series.

Moreover, the WWE Hall of Famer gave away the fact that if The Straight Edge Superstar does not participate in WarGames, he could be the next target for The Bloodline. If Reigns fails to claim victory this Saturday, his legacy could be in jeopardy forever. Therefore, a victory is a must for The OG Bloodline at Survivor Series.

CM Punk’s addition to The Bloodline saga was one of the biggest swerves of this year. While many fans were confused why The Best in the World chose to join Roman Reigns, it was Paul Heyman who asked for him to be the fifth member. Recently, the WWE Hall of Famer shed light on why he chose The Straight Edge Superstar to represent The OG Bloodline at Survivor Series.

Speaking with ClutchPoints, Heyman described Reigns and Punk as two of the dearest individuals to him in WWE. Reflecting on his Hall of Fame induction, Heyman recalled the Chicago-born star sitting front and center, showing unwavering support while The OTC inducted him. This deep connection motivated him to turn to both The Needle Mover and The Second City Saint when seeking retribution against Solo Sikoa.

Who introduced me there? Roman Reigns. No one else should have introduced me. Our legacies are tied together forever, and my God am I blessed and fortunate for that. Then in the front row were my kids, who was sitting with my kids? My best friend, CM Punk.

Heyman further revealed that he planted the seeds for this alliance back in June during Punk’s appearance on SmackDown in Chicago, where the former AEW star stood up against The Bloodline to defend him. This Saturday at WarGames, Heyman believes it is time for that bond to bear fruit, a testament to the deep connection he shares with both Reigns and Punk.
