Cody Rhodes Reveals Major Stakes in Oba Femi vs. Brock Lesnar WrestleMania Match
Cody Rhodes has shared his honest thoughts on the upcoming match between Oba Femi and Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 42.
Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Rhodes said the biggest question around the match is what makes it so exciting. He said, “Well, I think that question is what’s intriguing about the match. Okay, so there’s a little bit of magic that they have, in a sense that they have Mr. Heyman next to them. Mr. Heyman could sell ketchup to a lady in white gloves.
“But he doesn’t have to in this case, because I believe Oba and I would say this for Trick as well were with Shawn long enough that they can handle what is being thrown at them. And I know that firsthand from being in there with both of them. Oba’s first foray into the main roster was with John Cena’s final night, Saturday Night’s Main Event. I got a taste of the fact that I know we’re probably going to do that dance again.”
Cody Rhodes says Oba Femi vs Brock Lesnar will decide if Oba’s ready
Cody Rhodes explained that the match could go either way, which raises the stakes.
“But here’s why the question is exciting and why fans should be there. Because if it is too much too soon, we’re going to find out. If it is too much too soon, it’s suplex city, it’s F5, and it’s a dominant, never-been-this-good Brock Lesnar all over again, which is an incredibly difficult mountain for anybody to climb.”
“But he also said this could be a breakout moment for Oba Femi. “And if all the stars align and it’s Oba’s night, then you have a new star on the stage at a time when it’s talked about a lot who is on top? If we’re using that terminology in WWE, who’s meant to replace them, and when will that happen?”
He said WWE is entering a phase where new talent is stepping up to challenge top stars. “You know how that goes. These aren’t just given up. It’s not just, ‘Hey, here you go.’ This is the best season of it all because I’m not budging. I don’t think Punk is budging. But here’s Oba. Here’s Trick. Here’s a guy like Kit Wilson, who I’m really fond of. Here they come, and that makes for a great battle.”
In recent weeks, Brock Lesnar and Oba Femi have built excitement among fans with their face-offs. This week, their feud intensified when Triple H stepped into the ring to stop them from fighting.
