Recently, Strowman opened up on Reigns' latest ESPN interview where he said that The Monster Among Men doesn't deserve a title shot. The former Universal Champion hit back at Reigns and said that he didn't have a bloodline in the industry, unlike The Tribal Chief.
Reigns noticed the comments and fired a stern warning at Strowman. He put up a tweet telling the former Universal Champion to not worry about bloodline. The Tribal Chief finished off his tweet by making it clear that when he's done with Strowman on SmackDown, none of his family members will ever want to join the business.

Doesn’t sound like a monster to me. Sounds like a little crowd pandering puppet. Don’t worry about my bloodline. When I’m done with you tomorrow night on #SmackDown live, none of your family will ever want to join this business. https://t.co/C7iSkoVHtR

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
