Solo Sikoa delivers WWE SmackDown message to Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes

At the end of SmackDown last night, a promo aired with Solo Sikoa delivering a message to both Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes.

Sikoa has taken control of The Bloodline with Reigns away from WWE programming since his loss to Rhodes at WrestleMania 40. Anointing himself as the new Tribal Chief, Sikoa has added Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa & Jacob Fatu to The Bloodline while kicking out Jimmy Uso and turning against Paul Heyman. In his promo last night, Sikoa said Reigns “was not man enough” to successfully defend the Undisputed WWE Championship at WrestleMania. Sikoa declared that he’s coming after Rhodes and will bring the title back to The Bloodline. And if Reigns wants the championship back, he’ll have to try and take it from Sikoa.

“Roman Reigns was not man enough to defend our title at WrestleMania. He was not man enough to defend our legacy against Cody Rhodes and his legacy. Therefore, he shall no longer call himself the Tribal Chief — because I’m the Tribal Chief now. And I’m going to take back our Undisputed WWE title from Cody Rhodes. And if Roman Reigns wants that back, he can try and take it from me,” Sikoa said.

“Cody Rhodes, I am coming for you. And you will acknowledge me.”

At Money in the Bank tonight (July 6), Rhodes, Randy Orton & Kevin Owens are facing three members of The Bloodline in a six-man tag match. It’s expected that Sikoa will then challenge Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship at SummerSlam next month.

SummerSlam is being held in Cleveland on Saturday, August 3.
