Kevin Nash Says Oba Femi Has Become a More Refined Character On WWE Raw

On the latest episode of fy.com/episode/6E99DUSWikh5XKQywV98s0?si=b3dccfd934bf41b5″>Kliq This, Kevin Nash praised the September 28 Raw segment in which Oba Femi and Bronson Reed signed a contract for a match at Money in the Bank. Nash said Femi has become a more refined character and recalled working with Reed when Reed was starting out in WWE. You can check out his comments below:

On Femi’s New Look:

“I heard that Femi was coming down just to say something, so I sat down in my seat because I wanted to watch his entrance. He comes in, and he’s got kind of a different look. He’s wearing a shirt and slacks. He’s talking a little bit different, with a higher degree of articulation.”

On Bronson Reed:

“Then Bronson Reed comes down. Scott and I went down when [Reed] was first breaking in and there was a group of guys there, and we went over their matches with them. I told Bronson that day, ‘Dude, you have a great look. You’ve got a unique physique because you’re built like an offensive lineman, like a right guard. You’re super athletic. You’re quick. You’re Australian. You’ve got a money look.’ He’s a big, handsome guy.”

On the Contract Signing:

“They didn’t shout or anything. He just basically told Femi, ‘Your big claim to fame is that you beat the Beast Lesnar twice, and I’ve beaten you twice, so let’s just do this.’ And Femi basically says, ‘That’s fine, and it’s real simple, but you need to sign this contract, because that’s how business is done,’ which I thought was very poignant. That’s how business is done. He’s no longer coming down as a novelty act.

“In the short time that I’ve been away, he’s become a much more refined character, and he’s found his footing, and I’m digging it. That was one of the things, man. I always hate signings because they always turn into a schmozz, and they didn’t. He signed it, Bronson left, and it was done. Then they threw up a graphic package that only WWE can do. It says Money in the Bank, and it’s got a great shot of Oba and a great shot of Bronson, and it’s like, ‘Wow, okay, that’s a made match.'”
