The Bloodline appeared in WWE NXT on the September 10 episode, attacking The Street Profits and Nathan Frazer & Axiom.

Highlights from the appearance during the match between the returning Street Profits and the team known as ‘Fraxiom’ can be seen below this news story.
As previously reported, it would be Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa and Jacob Fatu who would make their presence felt on WWE NXT with Dave Meltzer explaining the reason.

Writing about the appearance on WWE NXT in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Meltzer revealed:
“They didn’t want the Street Profits losing and weren’t going to change the titles, so that meant a non-finish.
“The decision to have the three be involved in the finish was made when the decision was made to put the Street Profits in the match.
“There had been talk of having the three do a run-in on NXT even before Miguel & Wentz pulled out, but it wasn’t finalized until they needed a way to get out of the finish there.
“They really want the idea out for CW that any main roster star could show up unannounced or announced.”

The September 3 episode of WWE NXT saw The Rascalz (Zachary Wentz & Trey Miguel) win a number one contenders match for the NXT Tag Team Championships.
It would later be revealed that the pair had been pulled from the match with General Manager Ava noting “somewhat conspicuous circumstances” as the reason.
Meltzer would subsequently reveal that the reason for the change of plans was due to Migeul undergoing “unexpected minor surgery” over the weekend.

Ava has since reacted to The Bloodline turning up in WWE NXT, pointing out they could have just asked.
As for Fraser & Axiom, Nathan Frazer tweeted that “Fraxiom would like to offer their services to The Tribal Chief…”
He would make his meaning clear, just in case it wasn’t, by adding “The original one.”
