Despite Jey being a little more high profile over on Raw, Jimmy has been low-key killing it on SD since the breakup. It’s nice to see both guys having such success as singles.

Yeah i'm really surprised how well both have turned out as singles guys. Jey moreso since he's truly singles while Jimmy is still doing Bloodline stuff. They're gonna tear it down at Mania though.

No doubt. Plus, the inevitable reunion will also blow the roof off of whichever joint they’re in. It’s good that the current system allows for both partners to receive their fair share of the spotlight. It’s a far cry from the Janetty days, even if some of that was due to backstage politics.

One hundred percent agree that Jimmy has been killing it on SmackDown. Him acting like he’s the tribal chief in Roman’s absence was fun stuff and his stuff with annoying Roman with “yeet” is great. One of the funniest guys on the roster imo, next to R-Truth.

I’ve said it before I thought Jimmy turning on Jey at Summerslam was going to be a death sentence. But both guys have been killing it. Jey is super over and he’ll probably be IC Champion at some point this year.

Jimmy is hilarious. He’s embraced his inner clown. And the fact that everyone else in the Bloodline is super serious and he’s a goof is a fresh breath of air

Have you seen the clip of him selling a knockout at a house show where he stays down in the ring while they’re taking it apart around him? It’s hilarious. The dude has some serious comic chops and I’m thrilled he’s getting a chance to show them off.

Haha yeah I saw that, that was so good. I think he did that after a SmackDown went off the air too.

I meant to mention it earlier but I think we should all be happy to see just how many people this entire Bloodline angle has helped heat up. Even when you take out Roman and the twins, Solo has been great and has had a match with John Cena ffs. Sami is infinitely more over now than he was before, and even guys like KO, Drew and Riddle benefited from working within it. Whenever it’s all said and done, I’m pretty sure a case will be easy to make that it’s been the most productive angle/storyline in the history of wrestling.

That was hilarious.

I love his character but my only problem has been him taking far too many pins since Summerslam.

He does seem to be the fall guy a lot, but it kinda works for the character too. A few decent wins can easily erase that though, and they’ll have to do it prior to the eventual bro vs. bro match. I actually wouldn’t be shocked if he got the win there.

A bit like how Matt got the first win in the Harry’s feud in 2009.

I think the win does more for Jimmy at this point.

Personally i'd have Jey go over at Mania because I want him to have momentum ready to dethrone GUNTHER

This would also be fine by me, but I have this sneaking suspicion that Ilja is going to be the one to dethrone GUNTHER. It would be amazing if he was just always kryptonite to the guy.
