[3.0] "It feels like this guy is asleep during every segment and match he's in. He puts in zero effort and when he does he is just very bad. He's a complete nepotism hire since he's Roman Reigns' cousin or something, I hope the WWE stops pushing him. Every time he is on screen it makes me want to stop watching. Giving him a 3 is generous but he isn't an absolute DUD. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ"
[3.0] "Never seen someone so obsessed with being the diet version of a wrestler. Umaga had a lot going for himself. An innate charisma and a style in the ring all his own which suited him because of how violent and savage it is, one can argue that he is the Anoai families best pure wrestler. Solo doesnt have that going for him and it makes him lesser. He also clearly should be his own man, as shown with his street champion gimmick. He is an okay wrestler but nothing remarkable so his push is something that is proving to be the wrong call, as has been with other wrestlers in this era."
[4.0] ""I can't understand why WWE is pushing him. He's too small to be the powerhouse they're trying to make him out to be, yet too sluggish to be anything else. His character's a mess, mimicking Umaga's moves and screaming like a savage when it doesn't fit. It's blatant nepotism; without his wrestling family, he'd be nowhere. Still, I'll give him a 4 for his in-ring ability and potential down the line, given his youth.""
[4.0] "Unconvincing in every way. Unconvincing as the muscle for a guy whose bigger than him, unconvincing as a worker, and so forth. He's mostly just boring vs genuinely hard to look at so he's better than most wwe guys right now in that regard, but he's been featured so prominently for so long now and hasn't looked promising to my knowledge at all. Not at the kendell whindham/erik watts/triple H level of bad nepotism pushes, but for a guy being entrusted to dominate and beat cena, probably the last use of the cena rub left in the guy, he's not there at all."
[5.0] "The amount of potential Solo has is crazy. He's the only bloodline member under 30, I actually believe he's the only one below 35 too. And he's already in the best story in wrestling, and doing great while in it. His finisher the samoan spike is LEGIT. This man is A future world champion for sure. Plus he's A great worker too so he's already set for when this story ends. Edit: Ok well, the rating I gave him then was A bit high but also A year has passed and he.. he's actually gotten worse. He's young, he's in his early 30s he's new he's supposed to be getting better not worse what the hell. So for his recent performances since like august I am dropping him way down to A 5 lol."
[4.0] "I've never seen what the WWE see in him. He's too small to be booked as the powerhouse that he is, but too slow to be anything other than a powerhouse. His character doesn't make sense, he's doing Umaga's moves and screaming like a savage despite not being one like Umaga was, and he's significantly smaller than Umaga was. This is just nepotism in wrestling, if he wasn't part of a cherished wrestling family he'd be no one. That being said, I can't go lower than a 4 as he's decent in the ring and his character could be something in the future, he's still young"
"Like a lot of other comments, I truly do not understand his position in all these stories. His not threatening at all, his in-ring is not impressive, he is boring, he has no charisma or presence. I barely remember one good match with him in it. He did not bring anything to the Bloodline, just a falsely threatening men with no personality added to a team full of good characters and pro-pro-wrestlers. At least, it gave him a place in the division, but........................................ Why ?"
[5.0] "As a Korean, I think he is overrated in main roster. I liked him when he was in NXT. His ring performance is good and he was not winning every matches. However, after he got called up, his gimmik became boring and just beating every superstars. I cant understand why WWE gave him the Umaga and Batista(Evolution) role. He isnt charismatic like them. I hope he escape bloodline and do the job when he was in NXT and take away the Samoan Spike. Thats trash finisher."
[3.0] "Why is this guy on television? What is his purpose story wise? So he is supposed to be a silent enforcer? Whats he enforcing? He does not really look menacing as he is not super tall nor has a good physique. I would go as far that he is not in shape at all. He looks like some average joe. So his redeeming quality must be his wrestling, right? Well, no! His matches are short and boring as he is inferior to Uso #1 and Uso #2. Very limited and static. Any mic skill? Ah, I forgot, he is the SILENT enforcer. So he just tries to look minatory. But instead his face tells me that he is holding a sh*t for 2 hours or so. So I really dont know the answer on why he is on national TV. He is the Uso nobody needed."
[3.0] "absolutely terrible pro wrestler. in fact, calling him a pro wrestler is a disgrace to all other pro wrestlers including giant gonzales. he is a nepo baby, he cant sell for shit, he is so goddamn goofy how can I take his ass seriously bruh. I feel korean when I watch him"
[3.0] "Solo is an ok wrestler with very bad mic skills but unfortunately his character is very bland and uninteresting and while his NXT run was very promising (street champ gimmick was great), his main roster run hasnt been good so far. Im honestly worried for his future when Roman will be done."
[3.0] "Solo Sikoa is someone who had a lot of hype surrounding him when he showed up in NXT. His silent-type badass babyface character got over with the crowd down there and he had some solid matches. When he got called up, everything went to hell. His presentation as a silent enforcer with no personality or emotion has not gotten him over or helped him in the ring. His moveset is limited, he's not agile, and he can't work a crowd. He has not had any good main roster singles matches. He can't cut a promo, non-existent storytelling ability outside of sometimes making faces when Roman is around. He's just not lived up to the hype at all, and will probably plummet down the card once Roman calls it quits."
[6.0] "Sehr vielversprechend. Erinnert statk an Umaga von den Bewegung her und seinen Moves. Er wird auch immer besser mit der Zeit. WWE macht mit ihm alles richtig."
[1.0] "I don't get the hype around Solo. He's one of the most boring wrestlers ever and not just in ring. His whole character work is stand still and try to look menacing and scary but he just looks like someone who tried to hold his shit for too long. In the ring he is green as baby shit with zero intersting matches to his name. I don't think after Roman drop the titles we get to see much of Solo Sikoa cause his sole purpose is to interfere in Roman's title matches."
[10.0] "Very nice in his role as enforcer of the Bloodline. He has a ton of potential and is getting booked strongly. I hope to see that potential unleashed when he finally steps out of Roman's shadow. (EDIT) In 2023, he's gotten much better. He's been booked like a beast, maybe a little boring with the character but does his role really well as the silent but deadly enforcer of the bloodline. Samoan spike is a great finisher for a powerhouse character like him and the win over Cena made him look great."
[3.0] "I can't stand Solo. His sole purpose is to interfere in Roman's matches and help him cheat. It's not like he's big talk in the ring either, he stole basically half of his entire moveset from Umaga (who was much better than he probably ever will be). Boring ass gimmick, being the "enforcer" of the Bloodline really makes me chuckle... standing around with no expression during your stable's promos must be cool, huh? And that sucks because when he does talk, he's actually shown a bit of potential. If he actually was John Cena's final opponent, that would be beyond shameful."
[3.0] "You know how many people like to talk or complain or mention nepotism in wrestling? Solo Sikoa is the biggest example of such in modern day WWE. Maybe you can argue that Charlotte is, but you could also argue that Charlotte carried the Womens division for a while and has actually contributed to the company. What the fuck has Solo contributed? Making more WWE fans switch to AEW? He's literally just a third Uso, which is something we definitely did not need. The only reason he exists is to help Roman in the Bloodline, as if he didn't already have enough help. And it's not like he's bleeding in ring ability either, because Holy Shit man he literally is just Uso #3, like Oh wow! I love 50038298 Super Kicks in my matches! And man, that Samoan Spike! Real deadly finisher you got there! You thumbed him? Match over. No coming back from that. It's hilarious how a lot of Jits sell the samoan spike harder than most refs would after getting their shit rocked by a steel chair. Oh and also I love outside interference! Thats my favorite part of every Roman Match. You'd think that Eric Bischoff is still in charge with all the outside interference."
[6.0] "Solo Isn't a bad wrestler he is just another samoan, he wrestles the same and acts very similar to samoan wrestlers of the past, But he is passable and can have a decent match, what carries him IMO is his character work at the moment as I am very interested in a future match/ rivalry with him and Roman, while I do think he was an odd choice for a bodyguard role, he plays it well and is a good hand for any feuds. But please stop having him interfere in shit it's so annoying."
[5.0] "Not convincing in his role as enforcer as he lacks both the size and the intimidation factor, as well as in ring regression. Personality is clearly defined but so far one dimensional as his bloodline role has been repetitive to a fault. Unless changes are made his ceiling will be midcard gatekeeper."
[7.0] "Solo's pretty much a one trick pony - he's the silent but deadly enforcer of the Bloodline, what Roman was to the Shield. But he's sold that one trick so well the past few years. Everyone around him works perfectly to build him up as a monster heel, and he has a great in ring presence."
[9.0] "Soon to be a star, great look, awesome presence and getting better in the ring everytime he works. While I would not have him be the man to dethrone Roman Reigns as it's too soon for him, he has potential to be a breakout babyface or a huge monster heel by himself."
[3.0] "I can't see anything interesting about Solo, he just seems like an extra, a generic character. He never showed anything interesting in the ring, and from what we've seen so far he doesn't have any charisma or mic skills. Completely boring and uninteresting character, who always has the same expression. In addition to never having done practically anything to justify his position, which can be associated with push due to his lineage."
[8.0] "2023 könnte vielleicht er noch richtig durchstarten. Viele Fans wollen auch das die Bloodline endlich aufhört. Durch den Samoa Spike ist er für jeden Gegner Mega gefährlich."
[4.0] "QUIT making this guy the "new" Umaga. He's not nearly as talented or as much of a powerhouse as Umaga. Solo Sikoa is MID at everything. He's not impressive in the ring at all. He doesn't talk much at all, and it's never special whenever he cuts a rare promo. He's not charismatic at all because he consistently comes out to crickets every week. He's pushed because of nepotism (which wouldn't be bad at all if he wasn't SO boring and average). He's also beaten more popular fan favorites like Sheamus, Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens, and Matt Riddle MULTIPLE times even though he had business in going over ANY of those names. Honestly, the Bloodline storyline is the worst nonsense to happen in YEARS regarding the WWE product, but that's a completely different discussion for another time."
[8.0] "Considering his relative inexperience he's done great in his role as the enforcer for the Bloodline, he was pushed into a main event position where it was sink or swim and has exceeded expectations. Great brawler wrestler that would do Umaga proud."
[4.0] "Is being pushed and booked well and getting over, but he doesn't talk (part of the gimmick) and his work isn't fantastic. Should have spent more time in NXT before getting so much TV time. Happy to come back in a few months or years and classify but right now his in ring work needs a lot of polishing."
[8.0] "A dude with a good look and who plays his role of enforcer to perfection. WWE protected him for a while before losing to Cody but I can see why they did that. Was alright in NXT but when he was introduced into the Bloodline it was all uphill from there."
[8.0] "he works very well in the bloodline story as the enforcer . He has a good look too and was an amazing nxt call up. Im excited what the future brings for him."
[8.0] "Solo is an amazing talent. Works well as the enforcer in the bloodline. Need to see a little more out of him in terms of character but his in ring and mic work have been good so far and with the amount of stars he is working with should improve."
[6.0] "He is in a perfect position right now and have been presented like he should be but I don't see a star in him. Good in the ring but nothing special, Have some charisma but nothing special also"
[10.0] "He can definitely be a future superstar, he has good charisma, and he has started well and is progressing well, and Roman's performance will be even better with a manager like Paul Heyman."
[7.0] "I waited a long time before evaluating him, because initially not much was going on with him. At first, I thought Solo was just an "add-on" to Bloodline. He said nothing, rarely fought, just followed Roman. But for the past few weeks, they've clearly bet on him. He has more airtime, he often fights and you can see that he is built on someone in the style of "Umaga 2.0" so far it's hard to say what the effects of this will be, but I'm satisfied with what Solo looks like and I hope that it will be even better in the future. Edited: Solo has made a lot of progress since then. It's clear he's a "Bloodline mini-boss" and his rivalry with Roman will be interesting in the future."
[4.0] "I for the life of me don't see what the big deal is supposed to be with this guy. He's got no real personality, he's moves aren't that good, I honestly think it's just this mindset of "wrestling family so he must be good""
[8.0] "A promising prospect. He has that Umaga vibe and he looks like a force to be reckoned with. Another guy with a bright future, just don't make him a tag team partner and don't make him look like an idiot and he will shine."
[8.0] "Solo is pretty good. He has a serious tough demeanor. He is good at performing the typical Samoan offense. His promos are ok and he plays his role well in the Bloodline."
[8.0] "I really like Solo from what I have seen so far. He plays his role in the bloodline very well. He has so much potential and I can see him being a great mid-card champion soon. I liked him on NXT 2.0 and working with his family is only going to make him better. I really like the direction he is going."
[7.0] "Solo Sikoa just achieved an upset victory of his career against a 4-time world champion. This clearly sees that Solo Sikoa is in a major push in the company. He seems alright another name in the Bloodline who is in relation to the Rock. His arsenal of moves occupy major similarity of Umaga which is a fresh style in modern WWE. He is still new on the main roster but for the current view into things Sikoa is a solid performer with similar traits to his Bloodline brothering. He seems very composed with his character as well since Sami Zayn admitted on an interview that he is still attempting to break his character like he has with the rest of the Bloodline."
[7.0] "too early to tell but i'm a huge fan already. very reminiscent of the late Umaga. he's held his own on the main roster. being in the Bloodline is definitely gaining him some new fans. he has the potential to be a star if booked right."
[7.0] "In the matches of his that I have seen so far, he has looked good and fits well with the WWE style of wrestling. Until now he has not been seen speaking on the mic or speaking little, so he cannot be taken for granted in that facet, but the role of brawler fits him perfectly."
[8.0] "Solo Sikoa, son of Rikishi, another Samoan wrestler in WWE. He is good at fighting, he has a good physique, I see him winning championships in NXT 2.0 and later debuting on the Main Roster with his older brothers, The Usos."
[6.0] "The youngest of Rikishi's kids, and he seems to be on the same track as the other Anoa'i family members. His career in WWE just started but his work in GCW was pretty good, I expect good things in his future."
[6.0] "I'm actually a pretty big fan of this guy from the limited stuff I've seen out of him. He's like the Uso brothers if they fused together DBZ style and turned into more of a powerhouse hybrid that calls back to some of the more beefer Samoan wrestlers we've seen throughout the years: he can cut a pretty decent promo as well on top of things and clearly has charisma. Guy got a good match out of Carlito of all people as well lol. Definitely still a bit green but keep your eyes on this guy in the future."
