Solo Sikoa will face Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes at SummerSlam 2024. The Enforcer's goal is to bring the gold back to The Bloodline which Roman Reigns lost to The American Nightmare at WrestleMania 40. Apart from Sikoa, no other member of The Bloodline is on the official match card yet.
On the upcoming WWE SmackDown, WWE will host a gauntlet match to determine the challenger for the WWE Tag Team Championship, but WWE hasn't revealed the venue or event for the title match. The Bloodline's Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa are among the superstars who will compete in the gauntlet match. Apart from them, The Street Profits, Legado del Fantasma’s Angel and Berto, The O.C., Baron Corbin and Apollo Crews, and Pretty Deadly will participate in the match.
Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa can win the gauntlet match to become the #1 Contenders for the WWE Tag Team Championship. The Bloodline has already launched attacks on DIY and sparked a feud. The next step is a championship match between the two teams.

Interestingly, the match can take place at SummerSlam 2024 because of DIY's special connection with Cleveland. Johnny Gargano of the DIY (WWE Tag Team Champions) is from Ohio. He started his wrestling career with Cleveland All–Pro Wrestling (CAPW) in 2005.
If Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa are busy with the tag team championship match, Sikoa might find himself outnumbered at SummerSlam 2024. He is only left with Jacob Fatu while Rhodes has Kevin Owens and Randy Orton.
Roman Reigns will have a big problem taking down The Bloodline post-SummerSlam
The Big Dog is slated to return at The Biggest Party of the Summer and will attempt to take down Solo Sikoa and his Bloodline. It so happens that not many were viewing The Enforcer's new Bloodline as a threat until Jacob Fatu arrived. Fatu's ruthlessness truly became a problem for the SmackDown locker room.
On Notsam Wrestling Podcast, Sam Roberts explained that Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa couldn't really do what Jacob Fatu did upon joining The Bloodline:
"He [Jacob Fatu] has added, in a very short period of time, so much to this new Bloodline. I've been saying that if Roman Reigns is going to come back anytime soon. Then this Bloodline needs to really be looked at as a credible threat because, of course, Roman Reigns is eventually going to be able to conquer this Bloodline, but we wanna believe that there's a chance that it might be somewhat difficult for him. And when it was Solo Sikoa and the Tongans, I was like, 'I don't think we've found it yet.' But once Jacob entered the mix, then we get to a place where it's like, 'Okay, I see what the challenge is.'"
Roman Reigns' SummerSlam return will mark a full-circle for his character when he returns as babyface. The last time he returned to WWE was at SummerSlam 2020 as heel.
