There's been a bit of discourse online amongst fans. Some believe Solo Sikoa is already being overshadowed by Jacob Fatu, whereas others reckon the would-be 'Tribal Chief' deserves more time to settle into his in-your-face main event role. Being balanced, Sikoa currently sits somewhere between patience and need to see more.

It's OK to be concerned.

If he's meant to come across as a pretender to the throne who's in over his head, then fine. If not, then WWE might have a developing problem post-Bad Blood. It's vital for the success of WarGames that Solo starts to show a bit more fire on the mic. It doesn't look like he's particularly confident or comfortable as the lead promo man for this revamped Bloodline.

Kevin Owens even brought attention to that during the opening promo train by pretty much talking over Sikoa. That's when Solo should be allowed to stamp his authority over segments. He absolutely cannot fade into the background if Trips has Bloodline vs. Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes and pals scheduled for Survivor Series.
