Solo now realizes how valuable Jacob is as an ally, so he made one final plea to get him back on his side during this week\u2019s (June 20) episode of SmackDown.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3tATjp\">The United States champion is not a dumb babyface, so he didn\u2019t fall for Sikoa\u2019s shtick. He essentially told Solo to shut up and come challenge him for the gold. Plan A didn\u2019t work for Solo, so he instead went ahead with Plan B, which was calling in JC Mateo for a beatdown on Fatu.<\/p>\n<p id=\"Wboqd0\">That\u2019s when Jimmy Uso unexpectedly showed up to save the champ. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"bbbuVK\">Later in the show, a title match between Fatu and Sikoa was booked for Night of Champions on June 28 in Saudi Arabia. Here\u2019s the updated card for that PLE:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"GDVZBw\">John Cena (c) vs. CM Punk for the WWE championship<\/li>\n<li id=\"ssSjjF\">King of the Ring Final: Randy Orton vs Cody Rhodes OR Jey Uso<\/li>\n<li id=\"GfFwm0\">Queen of the Ring Final: Asuka vs. Jade Cargill OR Roxanne Perez<\/li>\n<li id=\"AEhHCU\">Jacob Fatu (c) vs. Solo Sikoa for the United States championship<\/li>\n<li id=\"SsgYde\">Dominik Mysterio vs. AJ Styles for the Intercontinental championship<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"77rjqs\">Who do you think will win when Fatu defends the gold against Sikoa in Saudi Arabia?
