The Bloodline Member Rikishi Predicts Will Dethrone Cody Rhodes To Become New WWE Champion
Rikishi has already made his pick as to who will be the one to defeat Cody Rhodes and become the next WWE Undisputed Champion.
After winning the championship at WrestleMania 40 and defending the title against the likes of Kevin Owens and AJ Styles, The American Nightmare quickly crossed paths with The Bloodline. With Solo Sikoa looking to establish himself as the true Tribal Chief, multiple challenges have been made for Rhodes’s championship both at SummerSlam and on the premiere episode of SmackDown on the USA Network.
Despite the fact that Sikoa has yet to take the title from Rhodes, Rikishi believes that The Enforcer ruling SmackDown will be an inevitability. Speaking about the possible match on his Off the Top podcast, Rikishi believes that the pin on Roman Reigns by Sikoa will foreshadow a future match:
“Like I mentioned [on] the last podcast we had, Solo’s a made man. For that to happen, there’s definitely, we see plans within this kid [of] what can be the next level for him. We talked about, does he need a belt? Well, after this [pin] on Roman, I can see maybe Solo being the one to take it off of Cody. I talked about maybe Roman will come back and take it off of Cody. But after seeing that, you beat the GOAT. I believe it was two or three spikes, but now, it’s like okay, you beat the GOAT, now you’re considered the GOAT. The GOAT-slayer. So who knows?”
What’s Next For Cody Rhodes?
With Rhodes having held the championship for a number of months, fans have begun to speculate if The American Nightmare’s time as champion is approaching its end. According to a recent report, future Cody Rhodes plans look to have been revealed.
