Oba Femi, a rising star in the WWE, has been absent from television for some time now, sparking concern among fans and speculation about his whereabouts. The 27-year-old Nigerian wrestler made a name for himself on NXT, winning the Breakout Tournament and later becoming the NXT North American Champion. During his reign, he successfully defended the title against various challengers, ultimately holding the championship for 273 days. However, his reign came to an end at Halloween Havoc, where he faced Tony D’Angelo in a Tables, Ladders, & Scares match and lost the title.

Since then, Oba Femi has been MIA, and his absence has left fans wondering what might be the reason behind it. According to Corey Brennan of Fightful, Oba Femi has not been seen backstage at WWE events since Halloween Havoc, fueling speculation about his future in the company. Brennan’s report suggests that WWE internally views Oba Femi as a future WWE champion, and many believe he will eventually dethrone Trick Williams for the NXT Championship during WrestleMania 41 weekend.

Oba Femi’s rise to prominence in the WWE was nothing short of meteoric. He quickly established himself as one of the top stars on NXT, impressing fans with his incredible performances. After winning the Breakout Tournament, he capitalized on the opportunity and went on to win the NXT North American Championship, making him one of the youngest champions in the brand’s history.
