Booker T Says Oba Femi Has ‘Matured So Well’ In WWE

On the latest episode of The Hall of Fame, Booker T — who called SummerSlam night one on WWE Radio — gave his assessment of Oba Femi after his win over Brock Lesnar, and the responsibility that comes with the position. You can check out his comments below:

On where Femi is now:

“He’s in a great position, and he’s handling it very, very well, man. He’s matured so quickly in this business. I’m not talking about as a man or anything like that, but as a performer, as a professional wrestler — coming from the program into NXT to now the main roster and being the guy. You can’t imagine how huge of a responsibility that really, truly is.”

On following him from NXT:

“For him, I’m watching him, and I’m watching his every movement. Every time I see him, we always dap it up. I’ve always been one of, if not his, biggest supporter down in NXT, always used to pump him up and tell him how good he is and how he’s doing everything right in the ring as well as out of the ring. And right now he’s taking that brass ring, man, and he’s put it on. And I don’t expect for him to try to give it up anytime soon to anybody. That’s who I see Oba Femi being.”
