Fresh off his King of the Ring victory, Femi chose to prioritize his rivalry with Lesnar over a shot at either World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns or WWE Champion Sami Zayn. The decision marks a significant shift in Femi's career trajectory, prioritizing personal conflict over immediate championship pursuit.
Brock Lesnar, accompanied by Paul Heyman, appeared in the ring and confronted Femi. Lesnar proposed settling their differences inside a Hell in a Cell match. Earlier in the segment, Lesnar referenced past insults attributed to Femi before striking him and delivering an F-5 during Femi's King of the Ring celebration.
Following the events, Adam Pearce acknowledged backstage that Femi's title opportunity is now paused. Femi, however, maintained his stance, asserting that he can pursue a world championship whenever he chooses.
