Roman Reigns targets the new Bloodline.
Solo Sikoa called out Roman Reigns on the August 9th episode of WWE SmackDown, and he received his wish.
Reigns returned to the SmackDown for the first since before WrestleMania XL, destroying Tama Tonga & Tonga Loa. Reigns laid out Solo with a Superman Punch, but before he could hit the Spear, Solo bailed to the outside.
Reigns picked up the Ula Fala that Solo had been carrying around, but before he could put it back around his neck, he was further attacked by Tonga & Tama.
Reigns fought both men off, taking Tonga out with a Spear and then hitting a Spear on Tama through the barricade.
Solo watched from the top of the aisle as Roman warned him.
