The much-anticipated WWE Championship bout between Cody Rhodes and Solo Sikoa has been confirmed for Summerslam 2024 on the latest episode of Smackdown. The new version of The Bloodline also continued their rampage on the show and destroyed the champion and one of his current allies.
Jacob Fatu of The Bloodline attacked the WWE Tag Team Champions Tommaso Ciampa and Johnny Gargano after the main event match of the show following their title defense over A-Town Down Under’s Austin Theory and Grayson Waller. This dragged in from Solo Sikoa for a promo session on the show as he was surrounded by Fatu, Tama Tonga, and Tonga Loa.

Solo wanted the fans to acknowledge him and he also wanted Cody Rhodes to do the same. Cody appeared at the scene and declared he would defend his WWE Title at SummerSlam 2024 against the Bloodline leader. This comes after Solo was able to pin him in the non-title tag team match at Money in the Bank PLE, last weekend.
