Solo Sikoa's struggles in WWE explained; Ascension to Tribal Chief in Roman Reigns' absence dissected by veteran

Solo Sikoa took over The Bloodline in the absence of Roman Reigns following WrestleMania XL. Some fans are still not convinced with Sikoa's role as The Tribal Chief and wrestling veteran Dr. Tom Pritchard dissected his struggles in getting his new character over.

The Tribal Hier lived up to his moniker when he decided to take charge of The Bloodline after Reigns went on hiatus. Sikoa has brought in three new members – Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, and Jacob Fatu.

In a recent episode of Hannibal TV, Dr. Tom Pritchard was asked about his thoughts on Sikoa's status as the temporary Tribal Chief. Pritchard is not worried about the 31-year-old superstar as he thinks that Solo might be finding his way by stepping up.

"I think Solo is going to be just fine. He may be finding his way in there, stepping up," Pritchard said. [From 35:05 to 35:15]

Solo Sikoa has been slowly building his credibility as the new Tribal Chief by bringing in new members for The Bloodline. Some fans are still not convinced by Sikoa's presence as a leader since WWE failed to give him a proper push after he squashed John Cena last year.

The former NXT North American Champion has been given time to showcase his mic skills with interactions with Paul Heyman backstage and in live segments.


Solo Sikoa has a chance to prove himself at Money in the Bank

Solo Sikoa and the new look Bloodline will have a big match at Money in the Bank next month in Toronto, Canada. Sikoa will team up with two members of his group to take on Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton, and Kevin Owens in a six-man tag team match.

The Bloodline has been feuding with KO since Tama Tonga attacked him early in his WWE career. Orton still has his issues with the group and Sikoa has seemingly set his sights on Rhodes' championship.

Money in the Bank is scheduled on July 6 at the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Canada. It will be the final premium live event before The Biggest Party of the Summer, SummerSlam in Cleveland, Ohio on August 3.
