At WWE’s upcoming Bast in Berlin event on August 31, 2024,
fans are set to witness one of the most shocking and intense matchups in recent history.
Roman Reigns, the undisputed Tribal Chief, will face off against the rising star Jacob Fatu in what promises to be an explosive encounter.
However, the drama doesn’t stop there—Roman Reigns has a plan, and it involves none other than Cody Rhodes, the “American Nightmare.”
The story begins with Roman Reigns asserting his dominance over The Bloodline. Over the past year, tensions have been brewing within the faction, particularly with Solo Sikoa, who has shown signs of defiance against Reigns’ iron-fisted rule. Jacob Fatu, a formidable new addition to WWE and a cousin to Reigns, has been caught in the middle of this family feud.
As Bast in Berlin approaches, Roman Reigns makes it clear that he will do whatever it takes to maintain his position at the top, even if it means turning on his own blood. In a shocking twist, Reigns reaches out to Cody Rhodes, his former rival, to join forces for this one night. Rhodes, who has had his own issues with The Bloodline, sees this as an opportunity to settle old scores.
The match between Roman Reigns and Jacob Fatu starts off as expected—hard-hitting and intense. Fatu proves to be a powerful adversary, pushing Reigns to his limits. But just as it seems Fatu might have the upper hand, the unthinkable happens. Cody Rhodes, clad in his signature “American Nightmare” gear, storms the ring. At first, it appears that Rhodes is there to confront Reigns, but to the shock of everyone, he sides with the Tribal Chief.
Rhodes and Reigns launch a brutal assault on Jacob Fatu, leaving him defenseless. The crowd is in disbelief as the two former enemies work together with ruthless efficiency. But the betrayal doesn’t end there. Solo Sikoa, who rushes to the ring to save Fatu, is met with the same fate. Reigns and Rhodes lay waste to Solo, sending a clear message that no one is safe from the wrath of the Tribal Chief.
As the carnage unfolds, Reigns stands tall, holding both his title and the loyalty of Cody Rhodes, at least for now. The once-unbreakable bond of The Bloodline is shattered, with Reigns establishing that he will stop at nothing to retain his power. Meanwhile, Cody Rhodes’ motives remain unclear, leaving fans to wonder what this alliance means for the future of WWE.
Bast in Berlin will undoubtedly go down in history as a night of betrayal, destruction, and unexpected alliances. The fallout from this event is sure to send shockwaves through WWE, with the repercussions felt for months to come. All eyes will be on Smackdown as the WWE Universe awaits answers to the many questions raised by this explosive encounter.
