Khalil put on a black and yellow suit, as he prepared for a face-off with the tribal chief Roman Reigns. As he was putting the final touches on his look there was a knock on the dressing room door.
Khalil:" Come in," he said as Dwayne " The Rock" Johnson entered.
Dwayne:" Look son, you want to get in his head," he told the 3rd generation Superstar.
The two kept their conversation going, even exiting the dressing room. Khalil soaked up every word from the Hall of Famer. However, their conversation was politely interrupted by Demi.
Demi:" Hey Khalil, just wanted to wish you good luck." She hugged him, but she turned to leave
Khalil:" Wait, Wait, Demi. I just want you to thank me for that." He replied, smiling at her. As she headed off.
Dwayne:" You like her don't you" his father spoke
Khalil:" Yeah she's my friend plus she has a boyfriend," he said back
They wrapped up their conversation, as Zephyr headed to the ring for his segment with Roman Reigns. The crowd cheered for the babyface. But the Tribal Chief entered. Zephyr stood face to face with Solo Sikoa, Jimmy Uso, Paul Heyman, and Roman himself.
Roman:" Who are you?" He questioned
Zephyr:" Well see I'm gonna be the one to take the title that WWE title off of you," he said as Roman laughed in his face
Roman:" Your only accomplishment is beating Dominic Mysterio for an NXT title. I don't even know why I'm here with you right now" he taunted once more
Zephyr:" Oh no Roman you don't get it, you old news, The Bloodline needs new leadership" he replied as the crowd award
Roman:" You don't even have a claim to be the Chief" he boasted back. But Zephyr took off his jacket to reveal a tribal sleeve all down his left arm. All members looked shocked.
Zephyr:" See you must have not done your homework on who I am." He shot back
Roman:" Who are you then, I mean I just see a dude who just really wants Rhea Ripley" he smugly replied as Zephyr just smirked
Zephyr:" You have good jokes. I like that, I have a good one. How's your back y'know after Seth Rollins put a chair through it. Or better yet how does it feel your cousin betrayed you" he smirked back with the crow now going crazy.
Roman:" You want a match?" He questioned
Zephyr:" Right here, right now for that WWE Title" he coldly replied as he began taking off the suit. However, Adam Cole came sprinting out.
Adam:" No, No, Roman already has a match, so how about you go find a tag team partner and you fight Solo and Jimmy" he told as Roman and Zephyr still stared down.
Zephyr:" Don't worry Adam I already have a partner, Dad why don't you come out?" he says as everyone is confused for a moment as The Rock's theme hits with the crowd going wild.
The Bell is rung as the match starts with Zephyr looking in at his father and Solo going at it. Soon enough he was tagged in and face to face with Jimmy Uso. Zephyr soon threw him into the far corner and began kicking him. However, Jimmy countered with a kick to the knee stunning the young NXT champ. As he continued his onslaught and went to end it. Jimmy goes to throw a super but is caught and slammed down. As he climbed to tag the Rock in.
Which he did as he got to work quickly. Throwing strikes and slamming down Jimmy Uso, but Solo somehow got tagged in and began putting the beat down on The Rock. Of course that didn't last for long. Rock came back with a barrage of kicks, elbows, and slams on the bloodline's enforcer. The dirty antics of the bloodline weren't done as Jimmy snuck up behind Zephyr and threw him into the ring post stunning him. The Rock couldn't handle the 2v1 situation.
With that, they threw him into the corner of the ring before Samoan spiked him down to the middle as both Solo and Jimmy climbed up to end with the Samoan Spikes. Khalil recovered from being knocked down as he looked up to see them setting up the finish. He ran over and hit Solo with a super kick knocking him off the post. While Jimmy ran at Zephyr but the rock got up

Zephyr climbed on top to pin him after they hit the Hurricane Slam.
Crowd: 1!2!3!
Later in the night, Zephyr was backstage as he sat on one of the AV boxes. As he dug deep into his thoughts for a moment, Rhea and Samantha came across his mind. Sure he and Rhea dated in the past and it didn't work out but he still found her attractive. He also had recently met Sam and was sure both he and her hit it off but his feelings were still conflicted.
However, he was snapped out of his thoughts by Jey Uso walking up to him as part of the segment they're doing to continue his story with the Bloodline.
Jey:" Look uce, me and you don't know each other, but what you did out there against my cousins was tuff" he replied with a little smirk
Zephyr:" Yeah man, The Bloodline's days are coming to an end. Roman has to watch his back at too many turns. Now he's got someone gunning to be the new tribal chief" he responded with confidence
Jey:" Aye man I got your back out there any issue with the bloodline I'll back you up. We're family after all," he told the younger man
Zephyr:" I got your back too any beef you got imma help you settle it uce" As the two men dapped each other up
Khalil walked off as his night of being Zephyr was over. Now he looked forward to spending time with Samantha. As he walked towards the locker room he found her.
Samantha:" Wow you looked great, so is the rock you're dad" she asked
Khalil:" Yeah, Only a few people know like Seth, Roman, Jey Jimmy, and Cody" he responded
Samantha:" Oh so then you're an only child?" He questioned
Khalil:" Not exactly, I have 3 sisters one of them in NXT, but we don't have the same mother," he told her
Samantha:" I guess we both have big families then because I have 5 siblings" she laughed.
Khalil:" Let me change out of this so we can go get something to eat" he replied.
He showered and got changed quickly, as he was happy to have some free time before Monday Night Raw. With his story not taking multiple directions in more than one way
