The Anointment Ceremony For Tanga Loa 

Paul Heyman: Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Paul Heyman. And as the wiseman to The Bloodline, it’s within my scope of services that, at all times, I must set the record straight. Ladies and gentlemen, until Roman Reigns comes back, Solo sits at the head of the table. It is from that position, that tonight, Solo has once again up the ante in the name of family honor and declare this a double proclamation. I call to your collective attention, this man, to my right, already anointed by Solo, a fully fledge member of The Bloodline. But from this moment forward, he will no longer be known only as Tama Tonga. From this moment forward, he will be known as Tama Tonga, the right-hand man. I also call your attention to the man on my left. Ladies and gentlemen, history in front of your very eyes, right now. Because from this moment on, the story of The Bloodline will never be complete if you don’t include the fact that a fully fledge member of The Bloodline stands before you right now, in the form of the infamous Tanga Loa. So, with that, Louisville, thank you and good night.

Solo Sikoa: Woah, woah, woah. Hold on, Wiseman. Aren’t you forgetting something?

Paul Heyman: Right-hand man. New member, infamous Tanga Loa. Thank you, you’re anointed.

Solo Sikoa: Shouldn’t you be thanking me, too, for saving you from Kevin Owens last week? Shouldn’t you thank them?

Paul Heyman: Yes, sir. Thank you for saving me from Kevin Owens, last week, infamous Tanga Loa. Thank you for saving me from Kevin Owens, last week, Tama Tonga, The Right-Hand Man.

Tama Tonga: We could’ve let Kevin Owens kill you, but we saved you, by orders of The Tribal Chief.

Paul Heyman: Well, allow me to return the favor to our family. I got here very early today to do what a wiseman does, doing wiseman things. And all I have been hearing since the moment I’ve arrived, is that Kevin Owens is looking for a piece of any and every single member of The Bloodline.
