The 946 with Carmelo Hayes on WWE Raw

On the October 12 edition of WWE Raw, The 946 and The Bloodline did battle in a scheduled six-man tag team match for the first time.

After weeks of fights and attacks, this bout would soon become out of control after Jaida Parker removed the referee from the ring. Following a wild brawl throughout the building, Carmelo Hayes returned to reveal himself as the newest member of the 946.

With the group beating down Solo Sikoa and The Usos with a crowbar, it looks like The 946 is stronger than ever.

Here are three reasons why The 946 needed Carmelo Hayes.

Power in numbers

In August, Royce Keys made his return alongside a debuting Bronco Nima and Lucien Price to form The 946 and lay waste to the likes of The Usos, Solo Sikoa and LA Knight.

Over the past couple of months, The 946 have bloodied The Usos, kidnapped Solo Sikoa, added Jaida Parker and ran over Jacob Fatu with a car.

Despite their success in getting the better of The Bloodline at every turn, The 946 knew once the family were altogether that they would be outnumbered.

Bringing in Carmelo Hayes gives The 946 more power by adding to their ranks and becoming even more unstoppable than ever before.

In need of a workhorse

While The 946 have found success with their gang like violence, fans knew things could change once they hit the ring.

Royce Keys has become a potential top star before their eyes through his leadership of the faction, while Bronco Nima and Lucien Price have gotten the spotlight upon their call-up to the main roster.

All three men are powerhouses and Jaida Parker can handle her own against anyone whether they be male or female.

What The 946 needed was a workhorse and now they have that in the form of Carmelo Hayes, making the stable even more well rounded than before.

Preparing for WarGames

Ever since The 946 formed, most fans assumed that WWE was building this unit up to eventually be the opposition to The Bloodline at Survivor Series: WarGames.

On November 28, WWE Survivor Series will take place in Houston, Texas and will be headlined by the Men’s and Women’s WarGames.

The Bloodline will more than likely consist of Roman Reigns, Jacob Fatu, The Usos and Solo Sikoa.

Needing more members, Carmelo Hayes gives The 946 their fourth member and may lead to another coming in to even the odds when The Bloodline are back to full health in time for the two-ring steel cage headliner on November 28.
