Solo Sikoa could be targeting his first singles championship on WWE’s main roster, with signs pointing to a potential confrontation with United States Champion Shinsuke Nakamura. The development follows Sikoa’s recent loss at Survivor Series 2024’s WarGames match.
Last Friday on SmackDown, Sikoa and The Bloodline launched an unprovoked attack on LA Knight and Andrade. However, when faced with Nakamura’s presence, Sikoa appeared visibly affected by the champion’s demeanor, choosing not to engage physically.
The attack on Knight and Andrade, both potential contenders for the United States Championship, suggests Sikoa may be clearing his path to challenge Nakamura. Despite these indicators, the timing of such a pursuit remains uncertain.
Standing in the way of Sikoa’s championship aspirations is unfinished business with Roman Reigns. The recent WarGames defeat has left tensions high between the former allies, with expectations of their rivalry resuming upon Reigns’ return to television.
The current landscape of SmackDown has shifted significantly in Roman Reigns’ absence. The Bloodline’s recent actions, particularly their assault on high-profile talents like LA Knight and Andrade, indicate an attempt to maintain dominance without their former leader.
This power struggle has created opportunities for various superstars to step into prominent roles. While Solo Sikoa appears focused on the United States Championship picture, the broader implications of The Bloodline’s actions continue to impact SmackDown’s competitive landscape.
The volatile situation suggests that when Roman Reigns does return, he’ll find a dramatically altered environment, potentially complicating his own position within the hierarchy he once dominated.
