The Anoa’i family appears to be in turmoil outside the WWE. A shocking event transpired at House of Glory Wrestling as Roman Reigns’ cousin, Lance Anoa’i, turned heel and speared his tag team partner.
Lance Anao’i and Zilla Fatu were at House of Glory Wrestling’s Winter Warfare event. The show emanated from the NYC Arena on December 19. The two stars were challenging Matt Hardy and Jeff Hardy for the HOG Tag Team Championships. However, the match ended in chaos after Anoa’i turned heel and speared Zilla Fatu, and left him writhing in pain in the middle of the ring.
The entire clip was uploaded to social media by the HOG Wrestling’s Twitter account. The clip started making the rounds and left fans in shock after the huge betrayal. HOG Wrestling termed it as “Blood turned on Blood,” hinting at the disintegration of the Bloodline faction outside WWE.

This heel turn could propel Lance in a singles career. The star recently parted ways with the WWE back in October. In a tweet, the wrestling star informed fans about his departure from the company and stated that he would start taking bookings for indie shows again.
Roman Reigns last appeared at Survivor Series: WarGames
At Survivor Series: WarGames, Roman Reigns teamed up with CM Punk, Cody Rhodes, and The Uso to go to war against Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed, Logan Paul, Drew McIntyre, and Brock Lesnar.
In the weeks leading up to the event, Roman Reigns had a few run-ins with the Vision. His disgust for the faction, coupled with his hatred for Paul Heyman, forced the OTC to form an uneasy alliance with the likes of Punk and Cody.
There’s never been another top guy that led others like me.
My place at the head of the table is cemented, it’s where I belong.

Although Roman Reigns and his team did not emerge victorious, the star shook hands and showed respect for Cody and Punk. However, Roman has not been seen on WWE TV since then, and it will be interesting to see when he shows up next.
