Roman Reigns captured the WWE World Heavyweight Championship in the main event of night two of WrestleMania 42 and, apparently, already has a challenger on the horizon.
During the post-show for the Showcase of Immortals, the crowd began chanting, “Oba is going to kill you!” while Oba Femi was giving his speech, which led the Nigerian star to challenge the OTC.
Later, on the same panel, it was Reigns’ turn to send a message to “The Ruler“:
“Oba, going to kill me? You still look a little green in this business. You did something big tonight, but I’ve done that many times, and I did it with a title on the line. I won, I defended. Let’s see how you do through the summer, and then we’ll see if you’re on the level to face the greatest of all time.”
Reigns acknowledged Femi’s accomplishment, but made it clear that one big win does not immediately put him on his level.
It is worth noting that, in a recent appearance on ESPN’s First Take, Reigns listed Femi himself among the young talents he would like to face in the future.
