Oba Femi Makes SHOCKING Trick Williams’ Claim on WWE NXT

Oba Femi made bold statements on the December 10, 2024, episode of WWE NXT, claiming that Trick Williams’ NXT Championship reign exists only because he allowed it to happen.

Oba Femi’s Path to the NXT Championship

During the December 10 episode of WWE NXT, Oba Femi addressed the crowd after his impressive victory in the Men’s Iron Survivor Challenge at NXT Deadline. With his newfound status as the No. 1 contender, Femi confidently declared that Trick Williams’ reign as NXT Champion was on borrowed time. He claimed, “The only reason Trick is champion is because I allowed it to happen.”

Femi’s confidence stems from his dominance in the Iron Survivor Challenge, where he secured his title shot for NXT New Year’s Evil in Los Angeles. His imposing presence and unmatched power make him a formidable challenger for Williams.

Tension Builds Between Femi and Williams

As Femi spoke about his future championship plans, Trick Williams interrupted to confront his challenger. The crowd erupted with “Whoop That Trick” chants, showing their support for the reigning champion. Before the two could escalate their verbal exchange, Eddy Thorpe entered the scene, adding another layer of tension.

Thorpe, frustrated after being attacked backstage and replaced by Femi in the Iron Survivor Challenge, accused Femi of taking his opportunity. However, Femi dismissed Thorpe’s complaints and doubled down on his challenge to Williams.

Title Match Set for New Year’s Evil

The confrontation concluded with the official announcement that Oba Femi will challenge Trick Williams for the NXT Championship at NXT New Year’s Evil on January 14, 2025. This highly anticipated match promises to deliver a clash of strength, skill, and ambition as Femi looks to dethrone Williams.

What’s Next for NXT?

The rivalry between Trick Williams and Oba Femi is set to dominate the NXT landscape. With Femi’s confidence and Williams’ determination, their showdown at New Year’s Evil could be a defining moment for both superstars.
