SmackDown Live Live SmackDown Discussion thread, September 6th 2024: Cody Rhodes responds to Solo Sikoa

[Dale]

WWE has announced that the WWE Universal Champion, fresh off of his latest title defense over Kevin Owens at WWE Bash In Berlin 2024 over the weekend, will be on-hand on Friday’s SmackDown to respond to the challenge from Solo Sikoa.

Giovani Vinci’s return

The Bloodline (Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu, Tama Tonga & Tonga Loa) vs. Street Profits (Montez Ford & Angelo Dawkins) & DIY (Johnny Gargano & Tommaso Ciampa)​

Really hope we don’t do Cody vs Solo again, just don’t.

They basically said it was happening after he beat KO Saturday, but I'm holding out they're talking it up so much to swerve lol

Yeah, that’s what I’m hoping. Cause I’ll be real, I didn’t enjoy it enough to want to see it again.

 

[Chris]

They'd have to give it another stip I imagine since they already did Bloodline Rules, just feels like a Red Herring that they're acting like it's such a done deal that Solo challenges again

 

[Dale]

I feel like Cody is gonna send him to the back of the line, they set up some kind of #1 contenders match and Roman returns to fuck over Solo. Not all on this show obviously.

That's 3 PPV cycles of Bloodline angles brah

 

[The Jakifier]

As opposed to 3 years of them we just got done?

Bloodline ain’t going away for awhile

 

[Cwalker]

Hoping and expecting a swerve too when it comes to Solo getting another shot.

Especially cause I wouldn’t beat him again so close to War Games.

But thinking of the roster, who else is there

 

[Chris]

The hottest match they can do rn is Cody and Roman vs Solo and Fatu, I just don't really think they'll do it this year

 

[Cwalker]

That is actually the biggest match they could do the rest of the this year

 

[Dale]

Just say fuck it and do a multiman with like Owens & AJ or something. The usual interrupting one another demanding a title shot etc

Orton gonna RKO Cody very soon.

 

[Cwalker]

Orton gonna RKO Cody very soon.

Gotta be soon.

Cody needs someone to work from Rumble season to Mania
