Paul Heyman sent a message to Solo Sikoa after WWE aired the face-to-face segment between Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes. At the upcoming Bad Blood Premium Live Event, Reigns and Rhodes will team up to face the team of Sikoa and Jacob Fatu in a highly anticipated tag team match.
The match was set up after Reigns saved Rhodes from The Bloodline. On the season premiere episode of SmackDown, The American Nightmare defeated Sikoa in a Steel Cage Match to retain his Undisputed WWE Championship. However, following the bout, The Bloodline made their presence felt and attacked Rhodes. But The OTC made his surprise return and evened the playing field.
On his Instagram story, Heyman shared the video of him refusing to acknowledge Solo Sikoa as his Tribal Chief and sent a message aimed at The Street Champion.

Sam Roberts claimed that Solo Sikoa has been the mouthpiece of The Bloodline
Sam Roberts believes The Bloodline doesn't need a new "Wiseman" after taking out Paul Heyman and kicking him out of the faction. Speaking on the Notsam Wrestling podcast, Roberts discussed the possibility of Armando Estrada being added to The Bloodline. He said:
"Like Armando spoke for Umaga because Umaga, which is a beast who didn't speak, he's just grunted. Solo speaks. So, I think that the thing about Paul Heyman is that his reputation is that of somebody who is a real power player and difference-maker. Paul Heyman will give you the secrets, the advice, the this, the that. So, I'm not saying I'd be against Armando Estrada but it would be a different thing and I don't know if you need to add that."
On this week's SmackDown, Solo Sikoa was absent from the show. However, the rest of his faction did make their presence known. In the main event, The Bloodline faced the team of Kevin Owens and The Street Profits.
The show ended in mayhem with The Bloodline taking out the babyfaces, including DIY. Cody Rhodes eventually saved Owens to end the show.
