They fervently vowed to confine Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa within the confines of the Uso penitentiary. ## Meanwhile, Solo Sikoa exhibited a palpable rage throughout the entirety of the June 23 episode of SmackDown. His fury became evident when he executed a Samoan Spike on Ridge Holland backstage, inciting Sheamus to issue a challenge and confront Solo in a match. ## Their main event encounter reached a climax when Solo employed a devastating Samoan Hip Attack, driving Sheamus forcefully into the barricade encircling the ring. Fearing further havoc, Jimmy and Jey Uso rushed to the scene, administering Double Superkicks and a double Uso Splash on their brother to halt his rampage. The show concluded with Jimmy and Jey jubilantly celebrating their newfound liberation, coinciding with Paul Heyman's appearance as he dialed Roman Reigns on his mobile phone. ## The @WWEUsos are getting a head start for #MITB by taking down @WWESoloSikoa tonight on #SmackDown! 😤#TheBloodline CIVIL WAR. ☝️ WEEK from TOMORROW.

Paul Heyman Declares Roman Reigns' Current Run As The Best Of All Time

Paul Heyman believes that Roman Reigns' ongoing tenure as the top champion is unparalleled in the annals of professional wrestling. As 'The Wise Man,' Heyman has faithfully stood by Reigns and The Bloodline for nearly three years, cementing his status as an integral part of the 'Tribal Chief's' captivating narrative alongside his family. ## Reigns' current dominance is widely regarded as a historic feat, positioning him as one of the most exceptional world champions to have graced the sport of pro wrestling. During a recent appearance on The Pat McAfee Show, Heyman was posed with the question of whether Reigns' ongoing reign stands as the epitome of all-time greatness. ## "Undisputed. Steve Austin didn’t hold the title for 1,000 days. John Cena didn’t hold the title for 1,000 days. The Rock didn’t hold the title for 1,000 days. Come on. ## In this era, with this much pressure, with this level of competition, with a murderers’ row of heavyweights that have come after him? How many title defenses against Brock Lesnar? Defeating John Cena, stacking Edge and Daniel Bryan on top of each other in the main event of WrestleMania, admittedly just getting by Cody Rhodes? Come on. Look at the roster that has been defeated by Roman Reigns. It’s an all-time great, legendary roster." ## To stay updated with all the latest combat sports news, add Sacnilk.com to your Google News feeds and follow us on Twitter.
