Lesnar–Femi Match Rumors
WrestleMania can possibly turn out to be a blockbuster confrontation since it has been reported that Oba Femi can be on the brink of getting a career defining confrontation with Brock Lesnar. The match is currently in the table during the WWE creative deliberations (h/t Ortman), BodySlam.net). It is rapidly gaining popularity among fans and industry observers although this has not been proven.
The Royal Rumble improved the stocks of Femi significantly. On a large scale, he was strong, there, and a self-assured man. It was considered by many in the WWE Universe to be a breakout by his outing. With the momentum, it would be a sign of confidence in the long-term prospects of the company to put him against Lesnar.
High-Stakes Business Clash
The two are good business-wise. Lesnar remains to be amongst the biggest draws of WWE. As is documented, he is able to draw attention globally. It is also the case of his selling opponents to make it look like he is strong through his in-ring selling. A contest with Femi would offer the young talent the first-hand validity. It would also present a show of WrestleMania which is size and intensity based.
There have been other possible opponents of Lesnar. Those who supported the confrontation with Gunther, however, are still there. Femi is believed to do better with the opportunity though. Any match on the largest platform of WWE with Lesnar can be a milestone. It would bring him to a broader market and position himself as one of the best talent.
Momentum Builds Rapidly
WWE appears to be a good investment to cash in on the recent popularity of Femi as long as the report is true. The broadcasting of such a match can be considered to be a wasted prospect. WrestleMania feeds on new, huge knockovers. It would give Femi just that by pitting her against Lesnar. The game is still in negotiation but the hype around the game is increasing.
