Solo Sikoa’s Hidden Bray Wyatt Tribute During SmackDown’s Bloodline Segment Spotted by Fans

It’s now been more than two months since the smash hit WrestleMania 40, which currently represents Roman Reigns’ last appearance in WWE. Since losing the title, the Tribal Chief has not appeared in WWE, and in the meantime, a new Bloodline is emerging in the promotion. In the absence of the Tribal Chief, Solo Sikoa took the reins of the Bloodline. And he surely made major moves that led many to question his motives. He first expelled his brother, Jimmy Uso, and then introduced new members. The first two were Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa, the sons of King Haku and considered cousins by several members of the Anoa’i family. And the third, and possibly the most impactful, was Jacob Fatu. Who surely made an impactful debut and can be the new enforcer of the group.

And the way the group has been acting, it seems like Solo Sikoa has no respect for any member of the WWE roster. Even the ones who are no longer active, like his own former leader, Roman Reigns, are not looked up to by the Tribal Heir. However, there is one former superstar who did receive a tribute by the leader of the Bloodline. And it is none other than the late Bray Wyatt.

Solo Sikoa pays tribute to Bray Wyatt

When Sikoa joined the WWE, he was seen bare-bodied with just his shorts on. A choice of clothing that purely described his Samoan heritage and culture most beautifully, with his tattoos for all to see. However, with his new change of mindset came his new choice of outfits as well.

As of now, The Bloodline member wears a suit everywhere he goes. Adding to the suit, he wears black gloves that somehow look very similar to something worn by another WWE superstar. And that’s because these are exactly the gloves worn by the fiend, Bray Wyatt. And not just that. He also makes the same hand gestures as the late superstar. So Solo Sikoa may be paying tribute to the late WWE superstar as he too embraces the dark side like the fiend once did.

However, there is another theory that seems possible. And it is that the Tribal Heir is somehow possessed by Wyatt Sick6’s Uncle Howdy. We are yet to find out who the mystery ‘Tribal Chief’ is that Sikoa keeps talking about. So maybe now that we have the Wyatt Sick6 on the WWE roster, the WWE Universe might get to see Howdy target the Tribal Chief. Or at least pretend to be one until Sikoa gets rid of his state of hypnosis.

Nevertheless, whether its Uncle Howdy or his actual self, Sikoa has shown an increased penchant for violence as evidenced recently. This could propel the return of The Tribal Chief who could now be forced to take direct action.

Solo Sikoa’s attack on Paul Heyman could invite the ire of Roman Reigns

Now, with the assault on Paul Heyman, everyone expects the return of Roman Reigns. He could claim his role as the true Tribal Chief, and obviously take revenge for Paul Heyman, who had never abandoned him. And maybe we will get some more clues at the WWE’s next major event. The promotion’s next big premium live event will be Money in the Bank. The show will be held at the Scotiabank Arena in the city of Toronto, Canada, on the night between Saturday, July 6, and Sunday, July 7.

Reigns’ return has been mooted around in time for SummerSlam so any recent return timeline could prove null. However, The Tribal Chief could be forced to cut his hiatus short seeing what happened to a close personal friend of his. Perhaps, Jimmy Uso will look to exact revenge on the new Bloodline after the shocking manner in which he was disposed of. We will have to wait and see how the storyline progresses. Nevertheless, whether it’s Uncle Howdy or Sikoa occupying the reins one positive trait of Sikoa has come to the spotlight with his Wyatt tribute. What did you make of the tribute?
