Solo Sikoa out of focus during WWE Raw promo with The Bloodline behind him

WWE had one of their most talked-about backstage promos in some time on the October 26 episode of Monday Night Raw, however it attracted conversation for all of the wrong reasons.

Following a vignette from 946, WWE Raw cut backstage to Solo Sikoa and The Bloodline standing next to a car, at which point an out-of-focus Solo discussed The Bloodline's current issues with Royce Keys, OTM, Carmelo Hayes, and Jaida Parker.

Sikoa was blurry for much of the promo due to being out of focus, with the segment instead focusing on Roman Reigns and The Usos standing against the car like NPCs. The promo then focused on Sikoa and blurred out The Bloodline for the final moments.

The promo immediately fuelled discussion, with the NPC-like nature of Roman Reigns and The Usos prompting accusations from fans of WWE using AI or a green screen for the Sikoa speech. However, that reportedly was not the case as Corey Brennan of Fightful noted that Roman Reigns and The Usos were actually there for Solo's promo and it was taped during last week's Raw to air on October 26. Bryan Alvarez on Wrestling Observer Live also noted it was simply an attempt by WWE to film a backstage promo in a different way.

The Bloodline and 946 are currently feuding on WWE Raw ahead of an expected confrontation inside WarGames at Survivor Series.
