Oba Femi proved himself once again as he levelled Brock Lesnar in the latest episode of “Raw”.

This attack marks the second week in a row where Lesnar was left floored after being attacked by newcomer Femi.

Before the 27-year-old Nigerian became a problem to the veteran Lesnar, “The Beast” issued an open challenge for “WrestleMania” last month.

“Traditionally, ‘WrestleMania’ had two main events: the title match and the Undertaker’s streak,” Paul Heyman, Lesnar’s spokesperson, stated as he reminded everyone that his client broke the Undertaker’s undefeated “WrestleMania” win streak.

“Which means that main event spot went to Brock Lesnar, and now the only dead man walking in WWE is the one that comes down the aisle to face Brock Lesnar.”

Heyman then announced the open challenge for Lesnar.

“And at any time, any man is willing to go down in history by taking the absolute worst victimisation possible in front of a global audience at the grandest stage of them all, then all that man has to do is come down that aisle and get up in the face of Brock Lesnar.”

Heyman then expressed his confidence that no one is brave enough to face his client.

Femi answers the call

In last week’s episode of “Raw”, Heyman issued the help of Lesnar against Seth Rollins and his gang of masked hooligans.

However, Rollins had an ace up his sleeve, in the form of former shot putter and the youngest North American Champion in NXT Femi.

Femi stormed to the ring, as he quickly dispatched Lesnar with a “Fall From Grace” in an impressive showing of strength.

The image of Lesnar down and out with Femi’s foot planted on his opponent’s chest shocked both the crowd and the wrestling world as a whole.

Femi’s meteoric rise established him as a serious main event contender.

He made his main roster debut in the “Royal Rumble” in January as entrant number one.

Femi then proceeded to dominate the match, eliminating five contenders before he was thrown out by Lesnar.

“The Ruler” levels “The Beast” anew

In the week’s episode of “Raw”, Heyman came out once again with Lesnar, reaffirming that Femi will not be victorious in their upcoming showdown.

“That’s the biggest moment of your career, because at “WrestleMania”, you will be beaten, you will be taken to Suplex City, you’re gonna be ‘F5’d’, you’re gonna be victimised. 

“Oba Femi, dammit, you will be conquered by Brock Lesnar,” Heyman said.

As Heyman dropped the mic, the lights dimmed and “The Ruler” made his entrance.

Femi did his signature strut to the ring as the crowd all chanted his name.

Lesnar struck first, looking for an “F5” to try and take down his younger opponent.

But Femi dispatched Lesnar out of the ring, shocking the veteran.

Their match will take place next month, as it is currently the only non-title bout announced for the event.
