• Solo Sikoa has been frequently featured on TV but kept out of in-ring action recently. At today’s Crown Jewel PLE, WWE has arranged a 6-man tag match where Roman Reigns, Jey Uso, and Jimmy Uso will face the new Bloodline (Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu and Tama Tonga).
Sikoa’s last match was on October 18th, where he lost to Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes in an untelevised street fight. Before that, he wrestled Rhodes during a house show tour in the UK. His most recent TV match took place on October 11th, defeating Jimmy Uso on SmackDown.
The Wrestling Observer reported that Sikoa’s absence was a “precautionary measure”:
“It should be noted that Sikoa has not wrestled since a 10/18 street fight with Rhodes in Columbia, SC, and was kept out of the firing line in some of the recent brawls. He was pulled from a few scheduled matches with Rhodes since then. We were told it was more precautionary than serious.”
