Coming off a massive win at Money in the Bank, Solo Sikoa and The Bloodline will once again take over SmackDown this Friday. As SummerSlam draws closer, The Bloodline will likely take things up a notch, wreak more havoc, and build serious momentum heading into the Biggest Party of the Summer.
But most of the attention will be drawn towards the leader, Sikoa. On that note, let's look at three things Solo Sikoa can do on WWE SmackDown.
#3. Solo Sikoa challenges Cody Rhodes to a WWE Championship match at SummerSlam
The Acting Tribal Chief sent a loud statement when he pinned Cody Rhodes at Money in the Bank 2024. From the moment Sikoa interrupted Rhodes' celebration at Clash at the Castle, it was evident that WWE was building towards a singles match between the two.
A pinfall win over the reigning champion is a definitive way of earning a one-on-one title shot. In addition to boosting Sikoa's momentum and improving his win-loss record, it has also increased his credibility as a potential challenger.
Many reports have indicated that Rhodes vs. Sikoa is on the cards for SummerSlam, and The Tribal Chief could lay the foundation by issuing a challenge.
#2. The Tribal Chief orders The Bloodline to take Randy Orton and Kevin Owens out of the mix
Although The Bloodline still outnumbers his allies, Cody Rhodes has found some much-needed help in the form of Randy Orton and Kevin Owens, two men who are hell-bent on taking down SmackDown's top faction.
While the babyfaces are still outnumbered by one extra member of The Bloodline, Sikoa could choose to further alienate and weaken Rhodes by removing his two most trusted allies from the equation. With a 4-on-1 advantage, The Tribal Chief will then become the favorite.
Jacob Fatu, Tama Tonga, and Tonga Loa are three of the most dangerous men in the wrestling world. They would have little problem taking out Orton and KO at Solo Sikoa's behest.
#1. Solo Sikoa appoints a new "Wiseman"
Two weeks ago, Paul Heyman refused to acknowledge Solo Sikoa as The Tribal Chief. Heyman's refusal resulted in a brutal assault and his expulsion from The Bloodline.
The faction is currently operating without a Wiseman whispering into The Tribal Chief's ear and guiding the faction's moves in and out of the ring. However, Sikoa could soon remedy this conundrum by appointing a Special Counsel for himself.
The opportunities are endless. A current member, like Tama Tonga or Tonga Loa, could be promoted to become Sikoa's advisor. An elder of the Anoa'i family, like Rikishi or Haku, could make a return to do the same. WWE may also take a different route by throwing an MVP into the fold.
