During a recent interview with TMZ Sports, WWE Superstar Omos discussed WrestleMania returning to Las Vegas for the second consecutive year, marking WrestleMania 42. Omos already has a specific opponent in mind for the premium live event: his previous WrestleMania 39 opponent, Brock Lesnar.
Speaking on WrestleMania 42 returning to Las Vegas, Omos stated, “Oh man, Mania last year in Vegas was awesome, man. Being in that environment, it’s Vegas, man. It’s the bright lights, the big city, you know, it’s just a city that is extremely vibrant. And to go back there for a second time, chef’s kiss.” He continued, “I’m excited. I’m elated to go back, I’m looking forward to being on the card this year.”
Regarding his potential dream opponent for the premium live event, Omos added, “My dream opponent? Oh man, it’s going to be bigger in Vegas. I’m going to put it out there, Brock Lesnar, we need to run it back. We need to run it back.”
Omos and Brock Lesnar First Clashed at WrestleMania 39
Omos and Brock Lesnar first clashed at WrestleMania 39: Night 2, which took place at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California in April 2023. The match saw Lesnar pick up the victory in the opening bout.
Lesnar recently made his WWE in-ring return last month at WWE Wrestlepalooza. He quickly defeated John Cena in just over eight minutes. It remains to be seen whether Omos will return to the main roster in time for WrestleMania and be included on the card.
More recently, Omos has been competing at WWE NXT live events. He’s not appeared on the main WWE roster since the April 5, 2024 edition of Friday Night SmackDown.
Meanwhile, WrestleMania 42 returns to Allegiant Stadium in Paradise, Nevada on April 18-19, 2026.
