Oba Femi Beat Brock Lesnar: Is This WWE's Next Monster Star?

[NinaVrina]

Oba Femi defeating Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 42 is the kind of result WWE only books when it wants fans to take someone seriously immediately. Brock has spent years as the measuring stick for physical dominance, so beating him gives Oba a massive stamp of approval. Many people would have expected Lesnar to win on name value alone, but WWE choosing Oba suggests they are building a new final boss style attraction

This is the biggest star-making win on the show for me. Beating Brock at WrestleMania tells the audience Oba is not just another big man

[Coder65]

I expected Brock to win because WWE usually protects him, so Oba getting the victory felt like a proper statement

[SortedBuilder]

The danger now is follow-up. You cannot beat Brock and then drift around. Oba needs a strong run of dominant wins straight away

Where he goes next should be simple: keep him away from silly comedy, give him serious opponents, and build toward Roman or another top champion
