Oba Femi Receives Major Warning From WWE Hall Of Famer
Oba Femi is one of the biggest draws in WWE right now.
Femi only landed on the main roster earlier this year, and his first major rivalry came against Brock Lesnar. He has faced The Beast Incarnate twice already: the first time at WrestleMania 42 (which he won), the second at Clash in Italy (which Lesnar won).
He’s scheduled to face Brock Lesnar one more time at SummerSlam in a Hell in a Cell match. Ahead of his third (and perhaps final) clash against The Beast, WWE Hall of Famer Mark Henry sent him a major warning in the form of incredible advice.
Mark Henry’s Remarkable Advice to Oba Femi
While speaking to PWMania in a new interview, Mark Henry was asked to share his thoughts on the up-and-coming wrestler. He was also asked to give advice to The Ruler to help him reach his full potential in WWE.
Henry warned Femi to be cautious about getting caught up with too many people and to avoid overextending himself. He asked him to be selective about his rivalries and not waste time on meaningless storylines to be successful in his career.
PWMania.com: You’ve competed against some of the greatest powerhouses in wrestling history. Oba Femi has drawn comparisons to your style. What advice would you give him to ensure he reaches his full potential and enjoys a Hall of Fame career?
Mark Henry: “I would say that Oba Femi has to be very cautious about getting caught up with too many people. He has to be very cautious about not overextending himself, because sometimes absence makes the heart grow fonder. You don’t have to be involved in everything to have a successful career.”
“You have to let the well fill up. Anybody that’s ever lived off well water, the last thing you want to do is drink the water at the bottom of the well. You want to let that water fill up, and you want to take water off the top, and you want to process that water, get it purified and clean. What I’m trying to say is that you want everything to be pure and clean, but that takes time.”
