Brock Lesnar endorses Oba Femi following SummerSlam retirement match

Brock Lesnar provided an unexpected endorsement of Oba Femi following their Hell in a Cell match at SummerSlam 2026. After defeating Lesnar in what served as his retirement match, Femi was surprised when Lesnar returned to the ring to declare him the ‘next big thing in WWE.’

Femi noted that the endorsement was unplanned and caught everyone, including camera crews, off guard. He described being on guard when he saw Lesnar returning to the ring, unsure if another confrontation was imminent. Femi highlighted that the gesture was highly out of character for Lesnar, who has rarely broken character in his 25-year career.
