Big E Praises Oba Femi’s Composure Against Brock Lesnar: “I Don’t See Even an Iota of Doubt in His Eyes”

Big E has seen enough from Oba Femi’s interactions with Brock Lesnar to make WrestleMania 42 his most anticipated match on the card. Speaking on the Raw Recap, the former WWE Champion gave an enthusiastic endorsement of Femi’s performances over the past two weeks — both the powerbomb from last week and Monday’s clothesline that sent Lesnar over the top rope.

“Massive Oba feminist. I almost soiled my couch last week when I saw the ease in which this man Oba Femi powerbombed Brock Lesnar,” Big E said. “And then to see what he just did on Raw again — I am telling you, this WrestleMania, this match is for me. The ease in which Oba handles Brock.”

Big E Looking for Fear in Femi’s Eyes — and Finding None

What impressed Big E most wasn’t just the physical dominance — it was the mental composure. “I’ve spent a lot of time when Oba comes to the ring and he’s about to face Brock. I’m looking at his eyes. I’m seeing if there is even an iota of doubt, of fear, of ‘this moment is too big for me, I’m in the ring with one of the greatest to ever do it’ — and I don’t see that,” he said. “This man has handled this stage with so much aplomb, with so much grace.” With WrestleMania 42 weeks away, Big E’s reaction reflects the broader sense that WWE may be building toward a genuine star-making moment for Femi.
