On the October 8, episode of WWE NXT, Oba Femi’s record-long reign as WWE NXT North American Champion came to an end at the hands of Tony D’Angelo. At NXT Halloween Havoc, Femi failed to regain the gold against ‘The Don’ in the Tables, Ladders, and Scares match, but what’s next for The Ruler?

With Femi’s future uncertain, many fans have speculated that a move to the main roster could be in the Nigerian star’s immediate future. According to Corey Brennan of Fightful however, there hasn’t been any backstage talk to suggest that Femi is coming up soon. Brennan also made clear that he hadn’t heard of anyone “saying goodbyes” after Halloween Havoc, which typically takes place before a Superstar is called to the main roster.

On the contrary, many within WWE NXT see him as “next in line for the title,” presumably the NXT Championship that Trick Williams regained earlier this month. Brennan said that NXT Stand & Deliver 2025 during WrestleMania 41 weekend was the “most likely” event where fans would see Femi dethrone Williams.

Femi has been booked strongly in NXT ever since his victory in the Men’s Breakout Tournament last year. While fans can expect a bright future for the Ruler on Monday Night Raw or SmackDown though, plans for such a move aren’t in the works at this time.
