Oba Femi Confirms Face-Off With Top WWE Star Was Only a Teaser

Oba Femi has reacted to his intense face-off with Brock Lesnar during the Men’s Royal Rumble match.

Speaking on the No-Contest Wrestling Podcast, Oba Femi explained that the moment was always meant to be a teaser, not the start of a full match right away. “I got to interact with him, but not, not too much on the wrestling, because he was always designed to be a teaser, just to see, you know, how people react to it.”

“That’s what a lot of wrestling is. It’s not like everyone just knows, because a lot of times it’s just, like, let’s do this. Let’s plant this seed. Let’s see what the crowd does, and based off of what the crowd does, that’s going to be our next move.”

“So there wasn’t too much interaction into like, it was a face off. It was a teaser. We knew what it was from the jump. Now we know we have something, like we really have something. And I think going from here now we’ll have, we’ll probably have more interaction down the line.” [H/T: wrestlingnews.co]

During the Royal Rumble match, the two powerhouses clashed in the middle of the ring. They exchanged German suplexes and heavy clotheslines, and neither man backed down. The moment quickly became one of the highlights of the match.
