I’ve tried to give it time before giving it a stinks stamp, but it just seems like this group is… pending?


Still don’t have a name, haven’t really explained an end goal or purpose in even existing, don’t really have chemistry or play off one another.. and it still feels like we’re missing a person. They’re outnumbered more often than not.


I’m sure shyt’ll eventually fall into place but am I trippin or are they taking it too slow with these nikkas?

They have a good look and Heyman as the manager so I think they are checking boxes but the one thing I think they are missing is backstage segments and of course simply naming the faction. Backstage segments always pushed The Bloodline narrative forward and you could see what everyone's motivations were.

This has been coming off as more of a generic stable and it really shouldn't because like I said the talent and the look is all there. They have the pieces. Needs some seasoning. Right now it's white people food.

But I will say this breh..... I think Rollins will cash in and then we are likely to get some tension with him and Bron and eventually the Bron vs. Seth feud will do numbers.

It's insane that they've been a group for two months and they still don't have a name. Might as well call them The Future and leave it at that.

I wasn't excited about Seth turning heel and it was a little interesting at first, but I'm over it now. He has the briefcase, but in general, the group's not threatening or dangerous. Look at groups we've had before. Nexus, Shield, Bloodline. They were taking over the show, making life a living hell for top stars, putting down anybody that stood in their way. They were all teams that needed to be dealt with. Seth's group is just a bunch of guys. They don't control anything, they're not dominating anything. I don't have a reason to care about them. Even the new Bloodline led by Solo felt more important (the way they broke down Heyman psychologically and then physically, Jacob's debut, Solo challenging Cody for the title at SummerSlam, Roman needing to get back the OG Bloodline and help from Punk for WarGames).

It also makes Seth look like an idiot because he's trusting Paul Heyman, the guy that's betrayed all of his clients. Bron and Bronson are young guys with longevity, so why would they want to be under a guy pushing 40 who's done everything in the business? They're going to want the same things Seth wants, so they'll turn on him eventually. Long-term, unless this leads to something major (Seth vs. Roman at next year's WrestleMania), I don't have a reason to be invested in it.

Just as an idea, Bron lost the IC title at Mania and didn't even bother trying to get it back. He just randomly decided to team up with Seth the night after. Why didn't Paul pull some strings and get him a rematch, then Bron beats the shyt out of Dom and gets a Gunther-style run with the belt? Him and Bronson can also be tag champs since New Day's not getting anything to do. Then Seth cashes in to win the WHC, and there you go. Now, you have a reason to care about the group, because they hold all the titles, which means they control RAW and you have to go through them to get anywhere.

But look what happened. Punk tried to qualify for MITB so he could stop Seth, he gets cost the match by the goons. Does Punk try to cost Seth the MITB match? No. He's not even on the show. Seth wins the briefcase with nobody trying to stop him. Next time we see Punk, he just decides to go after Cena when that storyline has nothing to do with him. It's more of a priority for him to stop Cena when Seth accomplished what he set out to do and is slowly gaining more power. Meanwhile, Seth is just leaving Punk alone when he should be doing everything possible to keep him from beating Cena. Why is he going after Jey when he's not even champion anymore? :why:

As it is, the whole thing is as half-assed as Cena's "ruin wrestling" bullshyt. Neither storyline is getting the juice it should be, and they're both missing important pieces (Roman, Rock), so they're just sitting there until the next important thing happens.

This not even a hot take when I say Paul Heyman with them feels like Paul Heyman with the big show rather than Lesnar or bloodline
