The Bloodline storyline is climaxing after Jey Uso officially left the group following the June 16 episode of Friday Night SmackDown.
In a shocking turn of events, Main Event Jey aligned with his twin brother, Jimmy, betraying Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa as well as the rest of The Bloodline.
Although the show ended with The Usos reigning supreme over their cousin and younger brother, WWE confirmed that this episode is not the end of the legendary Bloodline saga.
Welcome to The Bloodline Civil War.
LIVE from London, England on Saturday, July 1st, @WWERomanReigns & @WWESoloSikoa team up to take on The @WWEUsos at #MITB.

The WWE confirmed that the next chapter in this tumultuous family tale will continue at the Money in the Bank in London England. The aptly titled match, Bloodline Civil War, will see Jimmy and Jey fight in the ring against their former allies, Sikoa and Reigns. This marks the first time that either of The Usos will challenge their cousin in the ring since 2020, when Jey quit and lost to Reigns in a WWE Hell in a Cell pay-per-view.
The Bloodline storyline has been the most consistent force in the WWE for the better part of the past three years, largely due to the pull of Roman Reigns as the now-Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, but also how well the four play off each other.
However, the fractures within The Bloodline started appearing earlier this year, and the group appears to have reached a breaking point.
Despite these family problems, The Tribal Chief has managed to maintain his championship run, showing no signs of relinquishing this position. Since his latest title defense against Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 39, Reigns has crossed the 1000-day milestone as a champion, seemingly impervious to defeat.
After last night's SmackDown, the brothers finally took a stand against Roman Reigns, superkicking their Tribal Chief into submission. In a surprise twist, The Usos also attacked Solo Sikoa, delineating clear boundaries within the family. Now, the stage is set for an epic showdown between these fierce competitors.
Rumors about Roman Reigns' tag match at Money in the Bank have been swirling for weeks. With Jimmy Uso's turn at this year's Night of Champions, the trajectory was set for this direction. Now, the latest events on SmackDown have made it undeniably clear that this is the clash the WWE universe has been anticipating.
The Bloodline Civil Wawr will unfold in London's O2 Arena on Saturday, July 2, setting the stage for an epic family feud. Jey Uso's alignment with his brother Jimmy over Reigns and Sikoa adds an intense dynamic to this battle. Their decision to confront Reigns and Sikoa together marks a defining moment in The Bloodline's history.
It's unclear whether or not The Bloodline will continue to exist whatever happens after this, but one thing is clear: Roman Reigns is as vulnerable as ever without Jimmy and Jey by his side.
I love a good family feud in wrestling, this match will be lit!
If you had to pick which is better of the two, who would you pick - Jey or Jimmy? I am Jimmy 100%!
London is going to be popping off. Money in the Bank has always been my favorite PPV event of the year!!
