In a surprising turn of events, CM Punk has aligned with Roman Reigns’ OG Bloodline for the upcoming Survivor Series: WarGames 2024. This development follows Seth Rollins’ refusal to join the faction, setting the stage for potential new storylines and rivalries.
Why Rollins Declined the OG Bloodline
The new member of The Bloodline in the OG was Seth Rollins, aka “The Visionary,” who was twice approached to be the fifth member of WarGames. Rollins turned down the chance to reunite with former Shield member Roman Reigns. Apart from former loyalties, his move highlights his wish to carve out his direction.

Potential effect on Rollins’ future
With Punk taking the place Rollins rejected, several possibilities now open up for Rollins:
CM Punk Rivalry Renewed: Rollins has had a tense past with Punk. Punk’s betraying the new alliance may have thrown them into another rivalry, resulting in high-stakes matches.
