Earlier this month, Solo Sikoa made his debut on the main roster at WWE Clash at the Castle premium live event by helping his cousin, Roman Reigns to retain the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.

Last week, Solo Sikoa became the new NXT North American Champion by defeating Carmelo Hayes in the main event of WWE NXT.

Solo Sikoa defended his NXT North Championship against Madcap Moss and he was able to retain the title with an assist from Sami Zayn on last week’s Friday Night SmackDown.

Last night’s WWE NXT kicked off with a segment between Shawn Michaels, Carmelo Hayes and Solo Sikoa. Michaels informed Sikoa that he must relinquish the NXT North American Title due to he was not sanctioned to compete in last week’s title match. Then, The Heart Break Kid said that a fatal five-way ladder match will take place at Halloween Havoc next month to determine the new NXT North American Champion. Carmelo Hayes and Oro Mensah will compete in the bout and the other three competitors to be announced in the next few weeks.

After relinquishing the title, Solo Sikoa issued the following statement on Twitter.

I made the NA title more valuable in a WEEK then any title reign in WWE NXT. Brought it to Smackdown with me and defended it.
Keep in mind i never lost it.
There is always more gold out there and i got my eyes set on it already.

The Honorary Uce Sami Zayn also commented on Solo Sikoa relinquishing the title. Zayn stated that his new profile picture on Twitter has nothing to do with Sikoa’s situation and The Bloodline member is doing well.

I’ve just been informed about Solo Sikoa relinquishing the NXT North American Title. The jovial expression in my delightful #NewProfilePic has nothing to do with this news, it’s simply bad timing. Just got off the phone with my dawg & he’s doing well. Bigger, better things ahead!
