WWE didn’t waste any time turning Oba Femi’s King of the Ring win into something massive, because his road to SummerSlam now runs straight through Brock Lesnar inside Hell in a Cell.
RAW opened with Oba Femi celebrating his King of the Ring victory in Atlantic City, but Brock Lesnar showed up with Paul Heyman and quickly made things violent. Lesnar congratulated Oba, reminded him what happens when people talk trash, then hit him with a low blow and an F5.
Oba wasn’t done. After Lesnar started leaving, he grabbed the microphone and fired right back, saying Lesnar was still a “b*tch” while standing right in front of him. That led to Oba challenging Lesnar for SummerSlam. Lesnar accepted, then raised the stakes by making it Hell in a Cell.
Triple H later reacted to the match announcement on Twitter, making it clear WWE sees this as a war that needs the cage.
“The war between Brock Lesnar and Oba Femi will end inside the only structure that can contain it… Hell. In. A. Cell. Minneapolis, Minnesota #SummerSlam”
Now Oba Femi has the biggest match of his career lined up, but it comes with one nasty catch: he has to survive Brock Lesnar inside one of WWE’s most brutal structures.
