WWE's Royce Keys Discusses Adding Carmelo Hayes To 946, Future Of Faction

The 946 has made a huge impact on "WWE Raw," going head-to-head with the Bloodline since Royce Keys returned to WWE TV alongside "WWE NXT" call-ups Lucien Price and Bronco Nima. After revealing Jaida Parker's call-up and addition to the stable, they made yet another splash with the reveal Carmelo Hayes has also joined on the most recent edition of "Raw."

Keys, the leader of 946, sat down on "Busted Open Radio" to talk more about the dangerous faction and his friend, Hayes, getting involved. After months of not appearing on "WWE SmackDown," Hayes joined in the beatdown of the Usos and Solo Sikoa on Monday.

"That my dog, you know, way, way before I even set foot in the door," Keys said of "'Melo." "He's a great addition. He's got a chip on his shoulder like we all do. There's more to come... More to come with the destruction and chaos. People are genuinely afraid of us, so we like that."

Keys started his beatdown of the Bloodline alongside Sikoa, in addition to LA Knight, at SummerSlam, where the trio defeated Jacob Fatu and the Usos during night one. Keys was off WWE TV for a few weeks before returning to cause chaos alongside OTM as a surprise on the August 24 edition of "Raw."

He said going from the undercard to multiple main event segments of the red brand has been a dream. He's keeping his head down, however, and continuing the work.

"You know, you gotta always stay ready," he said. "When they call the play for you, you may only get one shot at it. I'm ready to run any play they throw at me."
