WWE is teasing a special guest referee for the rematch between The Usos and Street Profits at SummerSlam on 30 July.

Both squads will battle for Jimmy and Jey's Undisputed (Raw and SmackDown) Tag-Team Titles on the bumper pay-per-view. This is The Profits' second crack at those prizes after being screwed out of them at Money In The Bank.

Most critics and fans on social media generally agree that WWE has two different choices for the special ref role: Sami Zayn or Solo Sikoa. Zayn has become an "honorary member" of The Bloodline in recent months, and his character has dedicated himself to impressing Roman Reigns and The Usos.

Meanwhile, Sikoa has already been linked with a jump from NXT 2.0 to WWE's main roster soon. Solo is Jimmy and Jey's brother, and playing special guest ref at SummerSlam would be a big spot for him. It'd also make sense if The Bloodline trusted family.

Of course, there's always the chance that creative will bring in a babyface last-minute to scupper heel plans, but Zayn or Sikoa are the frontrunners for the pay-per-view gig right now.
