Oba Femi’s time in WWE NXT has officially come to an end — and now we know where he’s heading next.

According to WrestleVotes Radio on Fightful Select, the former NXT North American Champion is set to debut on Monday Night RAW in the coming weeks. This move comes shortly after Femi vacated his title, signaling a full transition to the main roster.

“Sources indicate that after relinquishing the NXT title this past Tuesday night, former champion Oba Femi is expected to be Monday Night RAW-bound once he transitions to the main roster in the coming weeks,” Joey Votes reported.

What makes this call-up different is the level of buzz already surrounding it. Femi has been touted as one of WWE’s fastest-rising stars and is clearly viewed as a priority talent. While most rookies debut quietly and work their way up, Oba Femi is reportedly being positioned toward the top of the card from day one.

WWE fans have watched Femi bulldoze through competition in NXT, and now it looks like the red brand is where he’ll continue his dominance.
