With Night of the Champions concluded, WWE's focus shifts to its top stars for the next six weeks leading up to SummerSlam. Sami Zayn's recent championship victory has created new narrative pathways for Gunther and Cody Rhodes, while Oba Femi's coronation as King of the Ring also presents fresh booking opportunities.
The ongoing narrative between Brock Lesnar and Oba Femi, who are currently tied 1-1 in their match history has generated significant fan interest for a potential rubber match. This report suggests SummerSlam could be the platform for their third encounter.
The strategy proposed involves Lesnar winning the WWE Title from Sami Zayn, possibly at the Saturday Night Main Event event preceding SummerSlam. This would position Lesnar as champion, providing Oba Femi with the perfect opportunity to challenge him for a third contest. The plan advocates for WWE to have Femi not only defeat Lesnar but also dominate him to secure the championship, marking a significant torch-passing moment.
The report draws a parallel to The Undertaker's streak ending at the hands of Lesnar, suggesting a similar impact for Lesnar's involvement in elevating Femi to the company's top star. Such a move would open doors for future matches for Femi against other top stars like Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton, and Seth Rollins.
