Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns, despite questions about their ability to coexist, fended off the concentrated attack of Jacob Fatu and Solo Siko Saturday night, besting The Bloodline in the main event.

The match took the form of a standard tag team bout for its majority, with the heels working over The American Nightmare before the hot tag to The OTC sparked the comeback.

The babyfaces rolled from there, with Rhodes wiping out Fatu with a splash from the top of the ring post and through the announce table and setting the stage for a Reigns-Sikoa showdown.

Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa made their presence felt, but the returning Jimmy Uso wiped them out at ringside and provided the distraction that allowed Reigns to deliver a Spear for the win.

A post-match beatdown of Rhodes by the heels drew Reigns and Uso back to the squared circle and a tense staredown between the babyfaces appeared to close out the show until The Rock made his return, standing at the top of the aisle and staring down the champion and The OTC.

The show went off the air with some intimidating gestures from The Final Boss.

And with that, the road has been paved to Survivor Series: WarGames.

Rock’s return interjects him back into The Bloodline story, and while he gestured at Rhodes and Reigns, it is not out of the question that the three fingers he put up, followed by the throat-slashing sign was directed at Sikoa, who has now lost three high-profile matches as the new Tribal Chief.

Has The People’s Champ returned to seize control of The Bloodline in a battle with Reigns and in pursuit of Rhodes’ title? It would seem that way. How does it affect Survivor Series, where he almost certainly won’t compete?

Then there is the return of Uso, which was somewhat overshadowed but essential to whatever it is WWE has in store for all involved at Rogers Arena in Vancouver on November 30 and into WrestleMania season.

That the company has taken a story that is four years in and still manages to create intrigue and questions is a testament to all involved.
