Fans have been demanding Adam Pearce &#8216;let them fight&#8217; for weeks. But those hoping for a 20-minute classic free of interruption should order a giant pizza, or a bucket of ice cream because you&#8217;ve got some major disappointment coming.<\/p>\n<p>Reed joined the New Bloodline on WWE SmackDown and played a major part in leaving Roman Reigns flattened to the canvas. The Original Bloodline will surely seek revenge and this match is too good of an opportunity to miss. But how will that impact Reigns, The Usos, and Sami Zayn&#8217;s plight to get Rollins to join them for Survivor Series: War Games?<\/p>\n<p>The Original Bloodline won&#8217;t worry if they arrive with their unannounced fifth War Games member in tow&#8230; The Rock is probably too busy <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2024\/11\/06\/the-movies-stopping-the-rock-joining-wwes-bloodline-civil-war\/\" target=\"_self\">promoting two movies to make the match.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Bloodline &amp; Bronson Reed ambush Roman Reigns, Sami Zayn &amp; The Usos: SmackDown, Nov. 15, 2024\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VssdVADuC0k?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Sheamus Gets One More &#8216;Craic&#8217; At The Intercontinental Championship<\/h3>\n<p>Meanwhile, whether or not the Irish will wake up on Tuesday morning with a celebratory Guinness, or a commiseration Guinness depends on Sheamus.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2024\/04\/15\/sheamus-returns-to-wwe-raw-tonight\/\" target=\"_self\">The Celtic Warrior<\/a> looks to win the only WWE title he hasn&#8217;t held when he faces Intercontinental Champion <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2024\/10\/24\/bron-breakker-vs-jacob-fatu-a-battle-worth-being-excited-for\/\" target=\"_self\">Bron Breakker<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The two fought to a draw when restricted to the three-minute madness of <a  href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/WWE\/status\/1856163330756604382\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">WWE Speed recently<\/a>, let&#8217;s see what happens when they are given time to cook.<\/p>\n<h3>Everything Else<\/h3>\n<p>Elsewhere, WWE gears us up for <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2024\/11\/16\/25th-anniversary-iconic-survivor-series-1999-was-it-really-that-good\/\" target=\"_self\">Survivor Series<\/a> with a couple of tag team matches.
