WWE Raw results, grades (Aug. 10): Solo Sikoa forced to rejoin Bloodline; tension builds between Femi, Breakker

"WWE Raw" was in Norfolk, Virginia this Monday — Aug. 10 — at Scope Arena to follow up one of the best episodes of the show all year. For two weeks in a row, the red brand delivered a fun night of action and story beats in the ring.Solo no moreFirst of all, I have to mention how masterful the reinvention of Solo Sikoa has been. I know I talked a big game about Trick Williams upon his arrival onto the main roster. While he's cooled off, he is still arguably the most naturally charismatic individual on the roster.But Sikoa is right there, if not overtaken that throne at present.Solo Sikoa is pulling out ALL the family lines 😂 pic.twitter.com/04uidXWKuk— WWE (@WWE) August 11, 2026 CLASSIC 😂 pic.twitter.com/6Zj99RilRg— WWE (@WWE) August 11, 2026 The man started the show by making a music-less entrance — and it freaking worked. In the crowd, Sikoa is a fit snugger than his gloves. This is the type of gold WWE has long been seeking to strike, yet failed to guide in Sikoa practically since his main roster arrival. Pairing him with his older brother, Jey Uso, creates plenty of great verbal sparring that ultimately led to their main event match.There was a catch, though. If Uso won, Sikoa had to rejoin The Bloodline next week. If Sikoa won, he could finally be left alone for good.As you can read from the headline, Sikoa, unfortunately, came up short on his gamble."Is everybody alright back there"Solo is HILARIOUS 😂 pic.twitter.com/YtRUlHUcqc— WWE (@WWE) August 11, 2026 It will be an absolute travesty to nerf Sikoa in any fashion with the momentum he's accrued with the fans. It's horrific to think we'll see him fall into the same freezer Jacob Fatu currently occupies after his red-hot run was cut out from under him for the sole purpose of this story to drag out. How WWE can make sense of Sikoa rejoining without constantly fighting back is beyond me, but I guess that's the intrigue behind it.Their match was admittedly pretty solid. The brothers have great chemistry, and Sikoa has simply never been more entertaining to watch in any capacity. The interference finish was expected, and inevitably came thanks to Jimmy Uso. It just would have been nice to see Sikoa go on his own way. And for LA Knight to make an appearance ringside rather than backstage.OH MY 😳Jey Uso has pinned Solo Sikoa! pic.twitter.com/mhKKanIGId— WWE (@WWE) August 11, 2026 The gatekeeperKnight made his case throughout "Raw," continuing his targeting of Roman Reigns after last week. That included interactions with both Sikoa and Fatu, with each essentially warning him in different ways.Before any title match happens between Reigns and Knight, the narrative is that Knight has to earn it, while Reigns awaits a challenger from the luchador tournament for "Raw" in Mexico. So, realistically, Knight should be one of the lone names to score a win over Fatu. Surely, it wouldn't come clean, and potentially act as a way for Sikoa to earn Knight's aid in saving him from The Bloodline once and for all. If that's the route we go down, I'm here for it. You can't separate those two just yet. And what better way for Knight to stake his claim than beating the positioned monster below the world champion?Solo Sikoa with a WARNING for @RealLAKnight! ⚠️ pic.twitter.com/exHS1wBjuv— WWE (@WWE) August 11, 2026 Jacob Fatu just WENT OFF on LA Knight 😯@jacobfatu_wwe pic.twitter.com/ScWCHjsdRO— WWE (@WWE) August 11, 2026 Future =/= PresentAustin Theory's match against Akira Tozawa was fun for what it was, but nothing more than a vehicle to get to the post-match.Bron Breakkker is still fully fixated on Oba Femi, and seemingly, the notion that Femi has overtaken his "spot" as the "future" of the company. Well, news flash for both, and the world: These guys both should be the present. Forget all this future talk.THE RULER IS HERE!! @ObaofwweGrab your popcorn! 🍿 pic.twitter.com/WeA0bFcJ2D— WWE (@WWE) August 11, 2026 Things are FAR from over between @Obaofwwe and @bronbreakkerwwe!! 🤯 pic.twitter.com/dQEwU91IWN— WWE (@WWE) August 11, 2026 They appear destined for a collision sooner rather than later. But somehow, WWE needs to get that tag title off Breakker and free him from The Vision as well. They're serving little to no purpose for him here.Is @bronbreakkerwwe still a @HeymanHustle guy? 👀 pic.twitter.com/cvLIExzSjI— WWE (@WWE) August 11, 2026 👑 Uncrowned Gem of the Night 👑Sol Ruca's mystery teammate of her choosing for her match against The Judgment Day should have come as no surprise. Despite the appearances we saw last week, Iyo Sky was the no-brainer after just losing to Liv Morgan.As a tag team, Ruca and Sky's styles blended tremendously to take out Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez in the match of the night. Morgan was nowhere to be seen here, creating some more interesting wrinkles, as Perez (as usual) took the pin. She has to reach her breaking point here eventually, especially sitting around without gold in her faction. Well, alongside JD McDonagh, of course.These two are a FUN tag team!! 🤩@Iyo_SkyWWE | @SolRucaWWE pic.twitter.com/m08Jt42JE5— WWE (@WWE) August 11, 2026 SOL SNATCHED 🌊@Iyo_SkyWWE | @SolRucaWWE pic.twitter.com/guq4gVSAs9— WWE (@WWE) August 11, 2026 After the match, Ruca and Sky were getting along a bit too well, at least if you're remembering the "RHIYO" connection with Rhea Ripley. That could be a nice little seed to plant for Ruca's future, depending on where things go from here. Until then, Lyra Valkyria still hasn't taken a shower for some reason.Lyra Valkyria seems to be getting more and more unhinged! 😬 pic.twitter.com/Oxt3Q61w79— WWE (@WWE) August 11, 2026 I give this "Raw" a crown score of: 8.5/10 👑WWE Raw full card results:Jey Uso def.
