Solo Sikoa made an unadvertised appearance on the July 20 episode of WWE Raw in Detroit to propose an alliance with Seth Rollins ahead of SummerSlam. Rollins, who is set to challenge Roman Reigns for the World Heavyweight Championship, said he would consider the offer. The segment ended with Rollins superkicking Jacob Fatu after Fatu entered the ring.
Sikoa warned Rollins about facing Reigns and The Bloodline in a potential four-on-one situation at the event. He referenced Rollins helping Cody Rhodes defeat Reigns at WrestleMania 40 as a comparison for the proposed partnership.
Rollins acknowledged the points but deferred a decision, saying he needed time to think. Sikoa pressed further before Fatu's arrival interrupted the exchange.
Separate vignettes aired during the show teasing Big Cass's return to WWE on the August 3 episode of Raw. The clips focused on his past in NXT and main roster tenure with Enzo Amore as well as his personal struggles, though Amore did not appear in either video.
