Of all things, he called Seth Rollins down to the ring for a chat that turned out to be more of a pitch.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">He wants to align with Rollins ahead of his match against Roman Reigns in Minneapolis early next month.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">The idea here is that Reigns has a lot of backup, and he\u2019s going to use that backup to ensure he holds onto the championship. Rollins, then, needs some backup of his own and Solo, a man without a community right now, can act as his shield, not unlike Rollins once did for Cody Rhodes in his quest to dethrone Reigns. It worked then, it can work now.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Jacob Fatu showed up to run Sikoa off before Rollins made a decision but he at least pledged to consider it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Like where this is headed?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"How\u2019s this for a wrinkle in the world heavyweight title program heading into SummerSlam?
