The Undertaker just showed up on WWE NXT—and he didn’t come alone. He came with a message.
During the April 29 episode of NXT, reigning NXT Champion Oba Femi was backstage giving his thoughts on next week’s 25-man battle royal. The winner of that match will face him for the NXT Title at Battleground. But before Femi could finish his thoughts, the lights dimmed—and The Dead Man walked in.
The Undertaker came face-to-face with Oba Femi and kept it short, but strong. He gave the champ some props, then delivered his warning. “There are some people in LFG who are ready to step up to you soon enough,” he said. He didn’t name names, but the point was loud and clear: Oba Femi should keep his eyes open.
LFG is WWE’s new reality series based out of the Performance Center, and The Undertaker is serving as a coach on the show. His appearance on NXT was part promotion—but also a serious hint that someone from the LFG cast is coming to challenge The Ruler.
Oba Femi has been steamrolling competition since capturing the title, but now it looks like fresh threats could be coming from outside the usual NXT roster.
With The Undertaker backing them up, are we about to see a new breakout star step into the spotlight?
