Solo Sikoa Was Worried His Name Would Be Changed On The WWE Main Roster

Solo Sikoa is happy he was allowed to bring the character he built in NXT to the WWE main roster.

Former NXT North American Champion Solo Sikoa recently sat down with Louis Dangoor of GiveMeSport to discuss a wide variety of subjects. When asked about his main roster call up to SmackDown and if he was expecting a name change to fit in with the rest of The Bloodline, Sikoa admitted it was something he was worried about as he has really grown to love the Solo Sikoa name.

“That was one of the things that was messing with me too,” Solo Sikoa admitted. “And like I was thinking about it, I was like, man, I hope I’m not doing all this hard work down here in NXT like I’m establishing who I am. I’m building my character. How I look, how I am. I’m different from my brothers, right? I got the blonde hair, and Solo’s really grown on me. I hope they don’t change me as a Uso. But it’s such an easy transition to go back. Because I took time to perfect my craft as Solo, but it’s easy to transition if they wanted me to go back or to be another Uso.”

Solo went on to state that the blonde hair was a choice to help him stand apart from his brothers.

“Definitely. Yeah, because I had long hair at the time. So we all look alike already. And then, with the blonde hair, it still doesn’t do it necessarily,” Solo Sikoa said. “And I thought it would be a big difference, but it really ain’t. It’s just hair. I was gonna either dye my hair blonde or red, but at the time, they were just dyeing their hair red. Okay, never mind. I’ll just dye it like a blonde Mohawk. So here I am.”

When asked if he’d be interested in teaming with his brothers if WWE introduces Trios titles in the future, Solo said he would be interested in that and relates it to how The New Day has operated over the years.

“Of course, I look at it like The New Day man. They were champs. They switched on and off with the titles,” Solo Sikoa said. “Now, they do something with the trios’ titles. We all have our own belts. It can either be my brothers and me or my brothers and Sami. There’s just so many different variations that we play with. Yeah, that’ll be cool if we could do that.”
