Report: Update On Solo Sikoa, Giovanni Vinci Following WWE Clash At The Castle
Main roster updates for Giovanni Vinci and Solo Sikoa
Sep 7, 2022
Two Superstars made their main roster debuts at WWE's Clash At The Castle pay-per-view on Saturday, September 3.
First, Giovanni Vinci reunited with Ludwig Kaiser and Gunther, reforming Imperium ahead of the former WALTER's Intercontinental Title defence against Sheamus. He had previously been Fabian Aichner but he was repackaged as Giovanni Vinci on NXT after Kaiser and Gunther were called up to the main roster in April.
Then in the main event, Solo Sikoa made his debut on the main roster and helped Roman Reigns defeat Drew McIntyre to retain the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.
In an update on both talents, PWInsider noted that Solo Sikoa has been officially called up and added to the SmackDown roster. He is currently advertised to appear on Friday's SmackDown alongside his Bloodline faction-mates Roman Reigns and The Usos. Giovanni Vinci, meanwhile, has been added to the SmackDown roster too. He will no longer be a singles talent, though, and he and Ludwig Kaiser are listed as a tag team on the internal roster.
Furthermore, Dexter Lumis has been officially added to the Raw roster. The former NXT star returned to WWE in early August and he has been terrorising The Miz in recent weeks.
