Oba Femi recently kicked off the June 8 episode of WWE Raw from the Accor Arena in Paris, France and he gave out a spoiler.
‘The Ruler’ has declared that he will win the King of the Ring tournament and settle his score with Brock Lesnar. The promo ended with Dominik Mysterio storming out to set up a first-round tournament clash between the two next week.
Femi soaked in a loud ovation from the Paris crowd before getting down to business. Borrowing Paul Heyman’s flair for the dramatic, The Ruler said Heyman believes in spoilers, so he had one of his own.
Femi promised, vowing to win the whole thing at Night of Champions. He called it a spoiler, not a prediction.

Femi Sets Sights On Brock Lesnar
Femi’s urgency is fueled by his ongoing rivalry with Lesnar. After getting the better of The Beast Incarnate at WrestleMania, Femi was destroyed by Lesnar at Clash in Italy, eating seven F5s in the rematch.
On Raw, Femi said the next trophy he claims will be the head of Brock Lesnar. He took a shot at The Beast, saying the only thing he had seen from Lesnar in recent weeks was “a big bad bitch.”
That history added a second layer of stakes to Femi’s championship ambitions as he eyes the King of the Ring crown. Lesnar’s return and the Clash in Italy rematch are detailed in our coverage of Brock Lesnar’s WWE return, while his pre-event promo can be found in his vow to conquer Femi.
Dominik Mysterio Locks In King Of The Ring Match
As Femi laid out his plans for Lesnar, Dominik Mysterio interrupted. The two are set to meet one-on-one next week in the King of the Ring tournament.
Dom told Femi he doesn’t rule anybody because he is too worried about Lesnar, when he should have been worried about Dirty Dom instead. While Femi was distracted, JD McDonagh slid into the ring and cracked him with a chair.
Femi did not flinch. Dom tried to take advantage, but The Ruler slammed him down before McDonagh could make the save.
“Rey Mysterio is your father, but next week I will introduce you to your daddy,” Femi told Dom, capping the segment.
Femi’s rising stock heading into the tournament has not gone unnoticed, with Gunther recently calling him a standout talent.
