CM Punk strolled past Heyman, joined his new teammates in the ring and then started a brawl with the The Bloodline (Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu, Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa) and Bronson Reed.

The OG Bloodline, featuring Roman Reigns, Jimmy and Jey Uso and Sami Zayn, got the better of this fight.
After the wreckage was cleared, Roman Reigns and Punk stared each other down. However, Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa got back into the ring to attack them both from behind.

But CM Punk hit Tama Tonga with Go To Sleep, and Reigns speared Tonga Loa to end that threat.
The staredown then continued, with Reigns seemingly confused as to why Punk was even there, let alone teaming with them. The show faded away with a smiling Heyman standing ringside in the middle of Reigns and Punk.
Obviously, some questions need to be answered after that dramatic reveal. There’s still a week left before WarGames, so perhaps will get some more clarity on the situation beforehand.
Regardless, Saturday, Nov. 30 should feature an electric show from Vancouver with the OG Bloodline and The Bloodline squaring off.
