During a recent edition of Busted Open Radio, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray analyzed a prospective matchup between Brock Lesnar and Oba Femi, who both competed in the men’s Royal Rumble match over the weekend. According to Bully Ray, it’s still too soon to see a potential Lesner versus Femi dream match Below are some highlights (via WrestlingInc.com):
Bully Ray on Now Being Too Soon for Brock Lesnar vs. Oba Femi
“It’s much too soon for Brock and Oba, in my opinion. Oba is not credible enough yet, and Brock knows this. It’s going to be very hard. Oba is not credible enough for Brock right now. ”
On Why WWE Should Book Brock Lesnar vs. Gunther First
“I don’t see why you couldn’t get two matches out of Brock and GUNTHER. I think you could,” Ray said, referencing the rumors that GUNTHER may face Lesnar amidst his reported retirement run this year. “I could never say ‘Absolutely not, they would not do Brock and Oba.’ I couldn’t say that because they could. I feel that it’s much too soon for Oba as far as the credibility of having a shot of beating Brock Lesnar. GUNTHER has been built to be credible enough to defeat Brock. Oba still has a ways to go.”
Gunther also competed in the men’s Royal Rumble match, but he was eliminated last by Roman Reigns, who won the match, earning a title shot at WrestleMania 42. Femi and Lesnar were both eliminated from the match earlier.
