Coming out of WWE WrestleMania XL and the Draft, there have been some changes to the booking of certain stars as the company enters a new era.
For Solo Sikoa, he has been given the biggest push of his career thus far. He signed with WWE in 2021. After working in NXT, Solo was called up to the main roster in September 2022 to be part of The Bloodline.
In this role, he was being used as the enforcer for Roman Reigns before Reigns went away to take time off after WrestleMania XL. Following that show, Solo has taken over the role of leading the faction, as he brought in Tama Tonga, and they took out Jimmy Uso.
Sokoa scored the biggest win of his career when he beat John Cena at the Crown Jewel PLE in November but went on a long losing streak following it. According to CageMatch.net, his most recent 41 matches had resulted in 39 losses and two no-contests.
That all changed at Wednesday’s WWE house show in Bologna, Italy, as Sikoa was on the winning side, and he and Tonga beat Randy Orton and LA Knight in a tag team match.
This also marked Tonga’s WWE in-ring debut. At Saturday’s Backlash France, this match will also take place,
