WWE eyes longer babyface run for Solo Sikoa after fan approval

WWE is considering keeping Solo Sikoa in a babyface (hero) role beyond the short stint originally planned for the SummerSlam night. The shift, which saw Sikoa team with LA Knight and Royce Keys against his own family members, was met with strong positive reactions from the live audience, prompting internal discussions about extending the storyline.

The change comes amid broader backstage pressure after a poorly received RAW episode, with creative staff reportedly under scrutiny. In addition, WWE is reportedly weighing an on‑air appearance by Hall of Famer Jesse Ventura at the SummerSlam 2026 pre‑show in his home state of Minnesota, though no final decision has been announced.
