Solo Sikoa will make his return on the January 17 episode of WWE SmackDown. After missing the January 10 episode, WWE announced that Sikoa would be back the following week. This will mark his first appearance since he lost to Roman Reigns in a Tribal Combat on the WWE RAW on Netflix premiere.

Solo Sikoa came up short in Tribal Combat against Roman Reigns on Monday Night Raw this week, meaning he would be forced to acknowledge the OTC as his Tribal Chief. He did not do so immediately after the match.
