Having been heavily speculated for a main roster call-up in recent months, it looks as if Solo Sikoa could indeed soon be set to leave the day-glo confines of NXT 2.0 behind.
As per Mike Johnson over at PWInsider.com, there has been "a lot" of talk over the last week or so of moving Sikoa to the main roster. Any such move could happen in the very near future, with this report noting that a call-up could happen as soon as next month.
Of course, Solo Sikoa is the brother of Jimmy and Jey Uso, and thus many have presumed that any move to the main roster would see the 29-year-old paired up with the Bloodline on the SmackDown brand. Whether that proves to be the case, we'll have to wait and see.

Regardless of his rich family heritage - Solo also being the youngest son of Rikishi - it's still all kinds of impressive to realise that Sikoa has only been wrestling for four years by this point in time. Having made his in-ring bow in 2018, the Street Champion signed with WWE in 2021 and soon became one of the standout names of the brand as NXT became NXT 2.0.
