Solo Sikoa to raise the stakes for his Tribal Combat against Roman Reigns? Exploring potential surprise for RAW on Netflix premiere

Solo Sikoa and Roman Reigns will engage in the ultimate battle for supremacy when they meet in the middle of the ring on the January 6th edition of Monday Night RAW. This episode will also be the red brand's debut on Netflix, which makes things more exciting.

However, there is a chance that on tonight's episode of Friday Night SmackDown, Sikoa could further raise the stakes for his upcoming match against Reigns. The Bloodline leader could announce that the winner of the Tribal Combat Match on January 6th won't just walk out with the Ula Fala but also with a title.

It has recently been reported that WWE has discussed introducing a Tribal Chief Championship in the storyline between Solo Sikoa and Roman Reigns. This title would be similar to The People's Championship, which was presented to The Rock earlier this year.

While nothing is official yet, Sikoa could make it official on tonight's episode of SmackDown. The title could be revealed on the blue brand, and the winner of the match on January 6th could walk away with the title and the status of being The Tribal Chief.

Wrestling analyst predicts WWE legend will interfere in the Tribal Combat Match on January 6th to cost Roman Reigns

Given the stakes of the match between Solo Sikoa and Roman Reigns, it's hard to imagine that the contest won't have an interference. Especially given the heel Sikoa is, it's almost certain someone from his Bloodline will try and cost Reigns. However, as per wrestling analyst Sam Roberts, a WWE legend will return to cost The Original Tribal Chief the match on RAW next month.

The wrestling legend in question is The Rock. During an episode of the Notsam Wrestling podcast, Roberts shunned the idea of Drew McIntyre interfering and spoke about why The Rock could return and cost Reigns the Tribal Combat Match.

Roberts said:

"What if it's not Drew McIntyre that interferes? What if The Rock interferes in that match? What if that's where The Rock comes out on Netflix? We haven't seen The Rock. What if that's where The Rock comes out and we see which Bloodline The Rock is in agreement with, if any by the way, and The Rock costs Roman Reigns that Ula Fala? Or maybe Roman wins the Ula Fala and The Rock and Roman Reigns have a showdown."

The last time The Rock made an appearance in WWE was at Bad Blood 2024, where he seemingly sent a message to Reigns, Cody Rhodes, and Jimmy Uso. The Final Boss seemed annoyed with the mentioned trio, and that's why it won't be surprising to see him cost Reigns his match on January 6th.
