It is the biggest match of Oba Femi’s career and he is ready for the challenge.
The NXT Champion will face Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes on Saturday Night’s Main Event tonight in a friendly encounter. No titles are up for grabs.
“To keep it simple for the casual fan, it’s basically the old guard versus the new guard or the current guard versus the upcoming guard. This is the No. 1 prospect, the No. 1 potential guy versus the number one current guy. It doesn’t get any better than that,” he told WTOP News.
Femi admits the pressure will be on tonight.
“There’s definitely pressure but it’s good pressure and pressure makes diamonds and I’ve consistently delivered under pressure of so many other times. I’ll do everything in my power to make sure that Saturday is no different,” said a confident Femi.
Femi guaranteed fans that whether he wins or not, fans will see him at his best.
“Whether you’re there or not I know you’re going to watch and I guarantee you’re going to get the best version of ‘The Ruler. You’re going to see who Oba Femi is through that screen on that day. I am the ruler, the destroyer, the bringer of war, the one who cannot be toppled. You will get to witness me in all of my glory.”
