WWE NXT Champion Oba Femi has quickly risen to the top of the brand and continues to prove that he is one of the most dominant men to step foot in “WWE NXT” in recent years. Despite the brutality of his matches, Femi has yet to compete in a hardcore match.
During his appearance in “The Rich Eisen Show“, he was asked who he would have from the “NXT” roster alongside him in a real bar fight.
“Trick (Williams) is there, for sure,” he noted. “The thing is in there. I’ll also say Tony D’Angelo. Josh Briggs. And… I need one more, Oh, wow, why am I doing this? You know we have the son of Evander Holyfield here (in NXT)?
Femi then went on a tangent, describing Elijah Holyfield’s physique as “weird” and urging the hosts of “The Rich Eisen Show” to make sure they see him to understand why he is someone he would want to be by his side in a bar fight.
Interestingly, Williams also appeared on the same podcast a month ago, December 2024, where he was asked the same question. The former NXT champion notably also included Femi in his list of teammates in bar brawls, as well as D’Angelo. However, where the two men differed, Williams included Je’Von Evans and Lexis King on his team.
Hopefully neither man gets into a bar fight anytime soon, but with the title around his waist, Femi will likely face Williams inside the ring very soon.
