‘Defeats Roman Reigns’: WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray shares two-match pitch for Oba Femi
· Yahoo Sports
Oba Femi is one of the fastest rising stars in WWE right now, and Bully Ray’s pitch for The Ruler at SummerSlam would almost certainly cement him as the most dominant wrestler in the company.

At present, Femi is competing in the King of the Ring Tournament, aiming to book a place in the final at Night of Champions later this month.
The winner of KOTR will earn a title shot at SummerSlam at the beginning of August, but Oba is also still feuding with Brock Lesnar, with both wrestlers winning one match each so far.
A final showdown at SummerSlam seems the most logical option, but that would likely mean Femi can’t win King of the Ring. That is, unless Ray’s pitch to have Oba wrestle both Brock and Roman Reigns is listened to.

SummerSlam, following in the footsteps of WrestleMania, is now a two-night affair.
And when discussing Oba on Busted Open Radio recently, Ray suggested that Oba should win King of the Ring to get a title shot at the PLE, while also facing Lesnar in a retirement vs title-shot match on Night 1.
Ray even went as far as to suggest that Femi should beat both Lesnar and Roman across the two nights.
He said: “I want Oba to win the King of the Ring. Oba wins King of the Ring, and Brock Lesnar absolutely decimates him at that. 10 F5s. So now Oba is gonna go on to face Roman Reigns at SummerSlam.
“Oba is so irate about Brock jumping him again; [he says] ‘give me Brock Lesnar on night one’. If Oba Femi defeats Brock Lesnar, Brock retires, but if Brock Lesnar defeats Oba Femi, Brock gets his number one contender’s shot and goes on to face Roman Reigns [at] night two of SummerSlam.
“What I just laid out gave WWE an opportunity to make Oba Femi their next mega star. Oba defeated Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania, Oba Femi retires Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam, Oba Femi defeats Roman Reigns at SummerSlam and becomes your champion. If you’re gonna do it, let’s ——- do it.”
Oba beating Roman and Brock across the two nights of SummerSlam would certainly be huge for his profile.
However, it doesn’t appear as though WWE want to pull the trigger on Femi vs Reigns just yet.
Instead, it was reported recently that Oba vs Roman is a backup plan for WrestleMania 43 should The Rock not wrestle at the show.
