Oba Femi showcased his incredible strength once again as he successfully defended his NXT Championship title against Je’Von Evans at the electrifying Heatwave event on Sunday night.
Femi has proven to be a force to be reckoned with ever since he joined the WWE NXT roster. His reign as the NXT champion began on Jan. 7 when he emerged victorious in a triple-threat match against Trick Williams and Eddy Thorpe at New Year’s Evil. Since then, he has left a trail of defeated opponents in his wake.

However, Evans provided a unique challenge with his agility and acrobatic skills. In a stunning display of athleticism, Evans executed a cutter that could have spelled defeat for Femi. Despite Evans’ confidence in his victory, the match took a dramatic turn when a NXT referee intervened, nullifying the three count and allowing Femi to continue the fight.
Determined to secure the win, Femi unleashed his power by hurling Evans out of the ring and through the announce table, much to the roaring approval of the Lowell, Massachusetts crowd. After reentering the ring, Femi delivered his finishing move and claimed the victory over Evans.
As the dust settled, Ricky Saints made his presence known in the ring, setting the stage for a potential showdown with Femi as the next challenger.
