I've decided that I am going to send Cov on a MASSIVE preseason European tour just for the hell of it. Hitting Spain, France Portugal, Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Norway, Ireland, Scotland, the European clubs in ROW, and Premier League/Championship clubs. Every country that has more than one league...all teams will have a match except for the EFL. All matches will be CPU vs CPU and using the most up to date roster. I won't be messing around with the squad at all. If anyone wants me to add info and stats along the way. I have way too much time on my hands and will definitely do that.

I posted this yesterday in the supporters group on Facebook. I figured I would share it here as well.

Sky Blue Army,

Growing up as a Canadian kid, football wasn't even on my radar. It was always hockey or baseball. It wasn't until years later when I found the beautiful game. Deep into adulthood. I feel like I missed out on a whole different world for most of my life. I didn’t inherit Coventry City. I didn't have parents, relatives, or even friends who passed Coventry City down to me. I chose them.

Last summer I decided it was time to take the leap and find a club to support. I didn't want to be labelled as a "glory hunter" or a "tourist". I wanted something meaningful. I started following this club without knowing the full weight of its history. I didn’t grow up with the Sky Blues, and I didn’t live through the years that shaped so many of you. But what I discovered was a fanbase unlike anything I’d ever seen: loyal, loud, defiant, and proud. You pulled me in before I even realized it was happening.

I didn’t expect to feel this much, this quickly. But seeing the Sky Blue Army so happy these past few weeks. All the smiles, the noise, the pure pride. It’s been emotional in a way I didn’t see coming. I may not have been there through the hard times, but this city that I have never visited, that is roughly 2800 miles from my home, has a piece of my heart.

I dream that one day I'll be able to sing with you all at the CBS, or on an away day. Enjoy your summer and any holidays you get to take. You all deserve it.

Step 1 - Backlash (Roman vs Jacob)

• Fatu has Reigns dead to rights.

• He signals for the Samoan Spike to send a message which draws out Solo.

• He stands at the edge of the ramp while MFT surround the ring.

• Solo gives the signal and they storm the ring.

• Fatu drops them all.

• Solo stands in the centre of the ring, and Jacob Fatu spits in his face. Solo snaps.

• Roman takes the opportunity and spears them both on one shot.

• ONE. TWO. THREE.

• Roman stands over Fatu while the Usos are already in the ring celebrating.

• As Roman stands over Fatu, he extends his hand. The crowd gasps and goes silent and Jacob accepts. Roman pulls him in for a forehead to forehead Samoan embrace.

Step 2 - The MFT fracture in the weeks after Backlash

Roman, Jacob, Jimmy, and Jey are in the ring.

Solo stands at the top of the ramp.

The MFT come out… but they stand together, not behind Solo.

Why?

Because Tama Tonga refuses.

He’s the Field Commander. The other MFT follow him, not Solo.

Tama’s body language says:

“I’m not standing behind a man who lost control.”

This is subtle, but it’s the first visible crack.

Backstage.

Solo: “Tonight, we’re—”

Tama cuts him off:

“You don’t give me orders.”

Tonga Loa steps beside Tama Tonga. Talla Tonga follows. JC Mateo follows.

This isn’t rebellion. This is Tama asserting veteran authority.

Solo is furious. But he can’t do anything — not yet.

In a six‑man tag, the MFT:

• Don’t use Solo’s signals

• Don’t look to Solo for direction

• Don’t mimic Solo’s mannerisms

• Don’t run Solo’s chaotic style

They wrestle like a disciplined unit, not Solo’s wild dogs.

Commentary hints at it:

“There’s been tension between Tama Tonga and Solo Sikoa for weeks now.”

This is the fracture becoming visible.

Solo corners the MFT backstage.

Solo: “You’re MY soldiers.”

Tama steps forward, nose‑to‑nose.

Tama Tonga: “We were your soldiers… until you lost control.”

Solo’s eyes go wide.

Tama Tonga: “You let Jacob spit in your face. You let your pride get in the way. You let Roman take back the throne. You’re not leading anything right now.”

Tonga Loa, Talla Tonga , and JC Mateo stand behind Tama Tonga — not Solo.

This is the moment the audience understands:

The MFT aren’t choosing Roman. They’re choosing NOT to follow Solo.

Step 3 - Night of Champions - Roman vs Next Challenger

Roman retains. But the key is how.

Solo interferes — alone.

No MFT. No Jacob. No Usos.

Just Solo, acting out of:

• pride

• frustration

• desperation

• the need to prove he’s still relevant

He tries to cost Roman the match… …but Roman still wins.

This is important:

Solo fails. Roman succeeds. The hierarchy is undeniable.

Step 4 - The post match moment

Roman stands tall over Solo.

Not attacking him. Not punishing him. Just standing over him, holding the championship high.

A king reminding a fallen prince who rules the dynasty.

Jimmy, Jey, and Jacob stand beside Roman. Not touching him, not posing, just present, united in the moment.

They raise their ones.

The crowd reacts.

Then the camera cuts wide…

In the distant background, in the crowd. Not on the stage. Not at ringside stand:

Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, JC Mateo, and Talla Tonga. All four with their one's raised.

Not standing behind Roman, but acknowledging the hierarchy. This is the moment the audience realizes that the MFT have chosen the dynasty, not Solo. But they haven't joined yet. They're watching. Waiting. Evaluating.

The following show, Roman doesn’t mention them. Jacob doesn’t mention them. The Usos don’t mention them.

But the MFT appear again — watching.

Solo notices. Solo confronts them. Tama shuts him down.

The fracture becomes a fault line.

Step 5 - The Setup

Roman is in the ring with Jacob and the Usos.

He’s talking about dominance, legacy, the dynasty reforming.

Solo’s music hits.

He walks to the ring alone.

No MFT. No backup. Just rage.

He gets in Roman’s face.

Roman smirks. Jacob steps forward. The Usos tense up.

Solo snaps.

He attacks Roman.

Not a shove. Not a tease.

A full‑on, violent, blindside attack.

Jacob tries to pull him off — Solo drops Jacob too. Jimmy and Jey try to intervene — Solo spikes both.

Roman is down. The Usos are down. Jacob is down.

Solo stands over all of them.

This is the moment the audience realizes:

Solo is done waiting. Solo is done being ignored. Solo is done being replaced.

And then…

Tama Tonga leads the charge.

They slide into the ring and stand between Solo and Roman.

Solo’s eyes go wide.

Tama steps forward.

No words. No speech. No explanation.

Just a look that says:

“You crossed the line.”

The MFT attack Solo.

Not to protect Roman out of loyalty. Not to join the Bloodline out of emotion.

They do it because:

• Solo attacked Jacob

• Solo attacked the Usos

• Solo attacked the Head of the Dynasty

• Solo broke the code

• Solo is chaos

• Roman is order

• Jacob is strength

• The hierarchy is clear

Step 6 - The Challenge

The next week, Solo finally snaps.

He storms to the ring, grabs a mic, and:

“You stand over me again, and I’ll take your place.”

Roman smirks.

Jacob steps forward.

The Usos tense up.

Roman says:

“You want the Head of the Table? You want the seat? You want the crown? Then you fight me for it.”

The crowd explodes.

Roman steps closer.

“But understand this… If you lose… you fall in line.”

Solo doesn’t blink.

“If YOU lose… you fall in line.”

The match is set. Summerslam. To make sure no one gets in the way. Hell In A Cell.

It’s personal, emotional, tribal, violent, family, legacy, hierarchy, destiny.

And it doesn’t need the title.

Because the Head of the Table is the REAL championship.

Step 7 - NXT

The week after the MFT save Roman from Solo, you run a short backstage segment on SmackDown:

Roman is sitting in the locker room with Jacob and the Usos.

He says one line:

“If the dynasty is going to last forever… it starts in NXT.”

Jacob nods. Jimmy and Jey nod.

Roman looks at Jacob:

“Make the call.”

That’s it. No long promo. No explanation. No hype package. Just a quiet, powerful order.

Zilla Fatu, Journey Fatu, Lance Anoa’i, and Thamiko Fatu appear backstage in a short segment.

They’re not wearing Bloodline gear. They’re not throwing ones. They’re not cutting promos.

They’re just standing together.

A reporter asks: “Why are you here?”

Zilla answers: “We were told to be.”

That’s it.

Short. Cold. Direct.

A couple of weeks later Roman appears on the NXT Tron.

Not in person. Not in the arena.

Just a pre‑taped message.

Roman says: “The Bloodline is bigger than SmackDown. Bigger than Raw. Bigger than WWE. This is a dynasty. And a dynasty needs heirs.”

The camera cuts to Zilla, Journey, Lance, and Thamiko standing in formation.

Roman finishes: “You four… fall in line.”

They raise their ones.

The crowd loses it.

The takeover is official.

Step 8 - Fall/Winter - Roman's Dynasty becomes too powerful

With Solo forced to obey, the Bloodline becomes:

Roman (Head of the Table)

Jacob Fatu (War Chief)

Jimmy & Jey (Generals)

Tama, Loa, Talla, Mateo (Soldiers)

Solo (Enforcer, broken but dangerous)

This is the strongest the Bloodline has ever been. And that’s the problem.

Because when a dynasty becomes too powerful… the elders take notice.

Step 9 - Paul Heyman Returns

Not as Roman’s advisor.

Not as Solo’s manipulator.

Not as a coward.

He returns as the historian of the family, the keeper of the lineage, the man who knows the truth. Roman is not the true Head of the Table. He is the Head of the Table for now.

Heyman’s return is not about loyalty. It’s about prophecy.

He warns Roman:

“There is one man you have not defeated. There is one man you have not surpassed. There is one man the elders still acknowledge.”

Roman dismisses him.

But the seed is planted.

Step 10 - The Rock Returns

Not as Hollywood Rock. Not as a cameo. Not as a nostalgia act.

He returns as:

Not as Hollywood Rock.

Not as a cameo.

Not as a nostalgia act.

He returns as:

Dwayne “The Final Boss” Johnson

The man the elders still recognize.

The man Roman has never surpassed.

The man Heyman has always feared.

And he doesn’t challenge Roman for the title.

He challenges him for the seat.

“You call yourself the Head of the Table.

But you never beat me.”

Roman’s face drops.

Because he knows it’s true.

Step 11 - Wrestlemania 43

Roman Reigns vs The Rock

• Fatu has Reigns dead to rights.

• He signals for the Samoan Spike to send a message which draws out Solo.

• He stands at the edge of the ramp while MFT surround the ring.

• Solo gives the signal and they storm the ring.

• Fatu drops them all.

• Solo stands in the centre of the ring, and Jacob Fatu spits in his face. Solo snaps.

• Roman takes the opportunity and spears them both on one shot.

• ONE. TWO. THREE.

• Roman stands over Fatu while the Usos are already in the ring celebrating.

• As Roman stands over Fatu, he extends his hand. The crowd gasps and goes silent and Jacob accepts. Roman pulls him in for a forehead to forehead Samoan embrace.

Step 2 - The MFT fracture in the weeks after Backlash

Roman, Jacob, Jimmy, and Jey are in the ring.

Solo stands at the top of the ramp.

The MFT come out… but they stand together, not behind Solo.

Why?

Because Tama Tonga refuses.

He’s the Field Commander. The other MFT follow him, not Solo.

Tama cuts him off:

“You don’t give me orders.”

Tonga Loa steps beside Tama Tonga. Talla Tonga follows. JC Mateo follows.

This isn’t rebellion. This is Tama asserting veteran authority.

Solo is furious. But he can’t do anything — not yet.

In a six‑man tag, the MFT:

• Don’t use Solo’s signals

• Don’t look to Solo for direction

This is the fracture becoming visible.

Solo corners the MFT backstage.

Tama steps forward, nose‑to‑nose.

Tama Tonga: “We were your soldiers… until you lost control.”

Solo’s eyes go wide.

Tama Tonga: “You let Jacob spit in your face. You let your pride get in the way. You let Roman take back the throne. You’re not leading anything right now.”

Tonga Loa, Talla Tonga , and JC Mateo stand behind Tama Tonga — not Solo.

This is the moment the audience understands:

Not standing behind Roman, but acknowledging the hierarchy. This is the moment the audience realizes that the MFT have chosen the dynasty, not Solo. But they haven't joined yet. They're watching. Waiting. Evaluating.

They’re not wearing Bloodline gear. They’re not throwing ones. They’re not cutting promos.

They’re just standing together.

Short. Cold. Direct.

The man the elders still recognize.

The man Roman has never surpassed.

And he doesn’t challenge Roman for the title.

He challenges him for the seat.

Roman’s face drops.
