Oba Femi puts the entire WWE locker room on notice.

After dominating the NXT scene, The Ruler only joined the main roster earlier this year in February, and he wasted no time in asserting his supremacy in the WWE locker room. In an effort to do so, he went after Brock Lesnar, accepting The Beast Incarnate’s open challenge for WWE WrestleMania 42.

In a shocking performance at WrestleMania 42 at Allegiant Stadium in Paradise, Nevada, Femi slayed The Beast Incarnate in less than five minutes in front of a jam-packed crowd. Building on his momentum from WrestleMania, Femi then started his own open challenge on Monday Night Raw, inviting anyone to step up against him.

On the April 27 and May 4 editions of Monday Night Raw, Grayson Waller and The Alpha Academy member Otis fell victim to Femi’s destruction. On this week’s edition of Monday Night Raw (May 11), Oba Femi came out to the ring and waited for someone to accept his open challenge. However, nobody showed up to challenge the behemoth.

An angry Femi then went backstage, grabbed the first two people he saw, Angel and Berto of Los Garza, and dragged them into the ring for a two-on-one handicap match. Femi picked up and threw both his opponents one by one and, in under a minute, pinned them to secure the win.

Oba Femi Sends Brutal Message to WWE Locker Room After Dominant RAW Rampage

Following his victory over Los Garza, Oba Femi sent a major message to the WWE locker room, saying:

Everyone’s a coward. All of you backstage, cowards. All the boys, Coward. Test yourself. Find your faith. Realize your destiny. Step up. Do something. No one is doing anything, and that’s the problem. That’s why you are where you are, and that’s why The Ruler is where he is.”

It will be interesting to see if anyone will be able to put an end to Femi’s wrath, or if he will destroy anyone and everyone that comes in his path.
