The Bloodline saga is undoubtedly one of the most popular storylines in the current era of WWE. It didn’t just direct Roman Reigns and The Usos‘ career on the right path, but also provided Solo Sikoa a perfect pedestal to start his career in the WWE.
But as we all know, ‘With a great storyline, comes greater responsibilities’. Being a part of the mainstream storyline means all eyes are on you. So, there is no place for mistakes. And ‘The Bloodline’ was doing everything perfectly until its newest member Solo Sikoa made an embarrassing botch that initiated a debate on Twitter.

In the latest SmackDown edition, ‘The Tribal Chief’ Roman Reigns was not there to entertain the WWE Universe. So the entire attention was on Roman’s compadre, Solo Sikoa.
Sikoa was set against the ‘Celtic Warrior’ Sheamus in the main event of SmackDown. Everything was going fine as both stars were giving their best inside the ring. However, as the action went outside the squared circle, things became a little complicated.
During the ringside action, Solo Sikoa positioned Sheamus against the barricade for a ‘hip attack’. But, upon its execution, it turned out to be nothing but a botched move.
This mistake sparked an online debate among fans. Several fans are defending Sikoa, giving different reasons, while others are believing that it was an obvious botch.

Not likely a botch. Camera was likely supposed to cut to a behind shot.

Probably wasn’t a botch maybe it was safety

There are two reasons why fans are paying extra attention to this mistake. Firstly, it’s because Roman Reigns was not there and second, it is not the first time when a Samoan family member has made such a mistake.
