Rikishi Predicts Solo Sikoa Will Win The WWE Championship In 2025

For years now The Bloodline has been the most dominant faction in all of WWE, and the group went through some major changes following WrestleMania 40 back in April. In the months that followed the Show of Shows, Solo Sikoa built a new version of The Bloodline when he recruited Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa and Jacob Fatu.

The New Bloodline faced off against The Original Bloodline in a WarGames match that main evented Survivor Series last week, and Roman Reigns picked up the victory for his team when he pinned Solo.

Rikishi has been very outspoken when it comes to sharing his thoughts on his sons The Usos and Solo Sikoa on his Off The Top podcast. During the most recent episode the Hall of Famer praised Solo Sikoa for stepping up.

“Big shoutout to Solo. I’m gonna tell you why. Solo had to step his game up once the guy, the man, the guy that brings all the banks in, Roman Reigns, once he stepped out, and here comes Solo. There was a lot of pressure. Is he gonna be able to carry that weight? Can he carry the ball? But we’ve seen the short amount of time, the growth of this professional, learning all he’s learned. He was able to adapt into this Solo Sikoa role, and you can hear it, the fans online, he got heat so quick, it’s because how Solo invested himself into this character of who he is.

He’s a made man. You put Solo up on a marquee, fans are still gonna come because they still want to hate this guy, they still are not happy about this finish [at Survivor Series], and who knows? People might think this is over because now Roman got the one, two, three on the Tribal Chief. So who knows where it’s gonna go?”

While talking about what lies ahead for Solo, Rikishi predicted that he will become WWE Champion next year when he added, “It’s his time to eat. He’s been out for a minute, perfecting the craft, waited his turn, waited for his opportunity. 2025, I see Solo Sikoa, WWE Champion.”
