WWE has different uses for Superstars on their roster. Although Omos hasn’t been seen a lot, he is still around, and he understands his status as a special attraction. With WrestleMania 40 coming up, he also knows that this is a season where magic things can happen.
WrestleMania is Special for Omos
Omos appeared during Royal Rumble press events with a Rumble jersey from the Tampa Bay Rays. Although he didn’t appear in the Rumble match, he was happy to be around the atmosphere.
While speaking to SEScoops‘ Scott Fishman, Omos mentioned the show of shows, and how much it means to him.
“To be honest, WrestleMania literally changed my life. I made my debut at WrestleMania. You know, with AJ Styles and the tag team titles, I will never forget it for the rest of my life, like that is in my brain. Although I didn’t know I would be booked, the next year against Bobby Lashley in Dallas was tremendous, just me on my own, which I think was my 3rd year in the business to then do it with Brock, that was just every year it just keeps going higher and higher. To me, WrestleMania holds a special place in my heart.”
Omos Addresses WWE Absence
Omos was also asked about his absence from WWE television. He did not provide any clue that he is coming back soon, but the Nigerian did admit that he is a special attraction that requires a payday.
“You know, I’m an attraction, they call me when they need to make the big bucks, that’s when they call me when they need me.”
Omos went on to say, “When they wanna see me on TV, man, cash those checks when you see me on TV.”
WWE hasn’t made a lot of use of Omos in recent memory, but he has been paired up with MVP at recent live events. As of this writing, that pairing has yet to make their real debut on WWE television, but you never know what can happen on the road to WrestleMania 40.
