The masterminds behind some of the biggest Bloodline-related moments on the May 11 episode of WWE RAW have now been revealed.
The Knoxville show pushed multiple major storylines forward involving Roman Reigns, Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso, and Jacob Fatu, and new backstage details are shedding light on who helped put those segments together behind the scenes.
According to Fightful Select, Michael Kirshenbaum was listed internally as the producer for the Roman Reigns, Jimmy Uso, and Jey Uso material that aired earlier in the show. Those segments continued building tension around the ongoing Bloodline situation as WWE heads deeper into the summer schedule.
It was also noted that Bobby Roode was the producer behind Jacob Fatu’s segment on the same episode of RAW. Fatu has continued gaining momentum since arriving in WWE, and his appearances have quickly become one of the company’s major focal points.
Another interesting backstage note revealed that the May 11 RAW episode carried the internal title “Unceremonious.”
The show itself also helped set the stage for the upcoming Saturday Night’s Main Event special on May 23 from Fort Wayne, Indiana. During RAW, WWE confirmed two championship matches for the card, including Penta defending the Intercontinental Championship against Ethan Page and The Vision putting the WWE World Tag Team Titles on the line against The Street Profits.
Even with those title matches announced, a lot of the attention coming out of RAW centered around the Bloodline-related developments and Jacob Fatu’s continued rise, especially now that the producers behind those segments are publicly known.
Do you think WWE is handling the Bloodline and Jacob Fatu storylines correctly right now, or would you change the direction of the feud heading into Saturday Night’s Main Event? Drop your thoughts and feedback in the comments below.
