Cody Rhodes to surprise Solo Sikoa with an unlikely ally's return on WWE SmackDown? Exploring the chances

The upcoming episode of WWE SmackDown will mark the final edition of the blue brand before SummerSlam 2024. The Biggest Party of the Summer will be a massive challenge for many stars, including Cody Rhodes. For those unaware, The American Nightmare will defend his Undisputed WWE Championship against Solo Sikoa.

Since this feud began, Cody has suffered a numbers disadvantage, allowing The Bloodline to gain the upper hand during brawls and physical altercations. However, the champion might enlist Jimmy Uso to make a surprise appearance on WWE SmackDown, providing much-needed assistance against Solo Sikoa.

Uso is currently on a hiatus from the Stamford-based promotion. The last time he appeared on SmackDown, he was thrashed by Solo Sikoa and Tama Tonga from the Bloodline. So Jimmy indeed has vengeance in mind, and aligning with Cody Rhodes would also help him get revenge.

Previously, Cody Rhodes and Jimmy Uso were on different sides, as Rhodes remained a babyface star since his return to WWE. On the other hand, the former tag team champ has been playing a villainous character for the past few months. However, it seems like Jimmy is now on the horizon of kickstarting his heroic turn in the company, and aiding Cody Rhodes is a likely possibility.

We still have to wait for the go-home episode of WWE SmackDown to see whether these things will come to fruition or if Cody will again suffer the numbers wrath of the Bloodline.

Solo Sikoa might also have a surprise in store for Cody Rhodes on WWE SmackDown

Not only does Cody Rhodes have surprises in store, but Solo Sikoa also has the opportunity to catch the American Nightmare off guard ahead of SummerSlam 2024. This could happen if the self-proclaimed Tribal Chief introduces a new member of the Bloodline on Friday Night SmackDown.

Hikuleo has already signed up with World Wrestling Entertainment but has yet to debut. Many fans believe he will accompany Roman Reigns in a potential Bloodline Civil War against Solo Sikoa's faction.

However, if WWE decides otherwise and Hikuleo debuts as a villainous character, Solo Sikoa introducing him in the upcoming episode of WWE SmackDown is a possibility.

Including a new Bloodline member in the go-home episode of the blue brand will shock Cody Rhodes and generate more buzz among fans for the Rhodes vs. Sikoa SummerSlam title bout.
