However, after his father, the legendary Sika Anoa’i, passed away on June 25, The Tribal Chief posted a heartfelt message on social media. Now just a day after his passing, he once again captured the hearts of the WWE Universe with his kind gesture toward his fans.

The longest-reigning Undisputed WWE Champion was seen visiting Florida and meeting his young fans.

Even though he has been absent since WrestleMania XL, he is still an integral part of the whole Bloodline saga. Solo Sikoa took charge of the dominant faction and introduced new members, Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa, in the process. However, what made the group more dangerous was Jacob Fatu’s debut on last week’s episode of SmackDown. He destroyed the top babyfaces, Cody Rhodes, Kevin Owens, and Randy Orton.
