Oba Femi didn’t just beat Bronson Reed at Money in the Bank—he made sure to send one final message after the match was over. Fans watching at home never saw it, but footage making the rounds online shows Femi getting a little payback for something that happened weeks ago.
After defeating Reed in a hard-hitting battle at Money in the Bank, Femi stuck around in the ring while Reed was still laid out. Instead of simply celebrating his victory, the King of the Ring winner walked over and placed his foot across Reed’s back.
It wasn’t a random taunt, either. It was a direct callback to the September 7 episode of RAW, when Reed put his foot on Femi during a post-match beatdown. That moment became a talking point backstage because Femi immediately knocked Reed’s foot away, something that was later reported to have not been scripted.
This time, the roles were completely reversed. Femi stood over Reed in almost the exact same position, only now he was the one standing tall after picking up the victory. Unlike what happened on RAW, however, Reed never brushed Femi’s foot away, allowing the moment to play out before Femi continued celebrating.
The exchange never made the televised broadcast, but fans who have seen the footage online quickly picked up on the callback. Whether it was planned or simply Femi deciding to have a little fun after the match, it came across as the perfect bit of payback for one of the more talked-about moments in their rivalry.
