WWE hasn’t officially locked in Oba Femi vs. Brock Lesnar for WrestleMania 42 — but Oba Femi just made it clear he’s ready whenever Lesnar is.

After reports noted that the teased singles match isn’t 100 percent confirmed, Femi decided to speak for himself. During an interview with Lucha Libre Online on February 23, 2026, the Ruler didn’t hold back when asked about a potential match with Lesnar.

“Listen, whenever Brock is ready for the challenge, he knows where to find me. I’m on the roster. He’s still an active member of the roster.”

Femi made it crystal clear that the ball is in Lesnar’s court — and that he’s not ducking the opportunity: “He knows where to find me. Let’s make it happen. Big money. Take my money.”

The comments come after Dave Meltzer reported that Lesnar vs. Femi is not a done deal for WrestleMania 42, despite their intense face-off during the 2026 Men’s Royal Rumble. Femi lasted 39 minutes from the number one spot before Lesnar eliminated him with a German suplex, instantly sparking speculation about a match in Las Vegas.

But with nothing officially announced, Femi is now publicly pushing for the match. WrestleMania 42 is set for April 18 and 19 at Allegiant Stadium, and Lesnar’s status remains unclear. Still, Femi’s direct challenge adds serious momentum to the idea — especially with “big money” implications attached. If WWE was on the fence before, Oba Femi just made his position undeniable.

Should WWE pull the trigger on Oba Femi vs. Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 42? Sound off below and let us know.
