Paul Heyman has commented on Brock Lesnar vs Oba Femi at WrestleMania 42, following Femi recently dropping Lesnar on Raw.
Oba Femi got fans talking on the March 16 edition of Raw, confronting Brock Lesnar in the ring and slamming him with a Fall From Grace powerbomb.
Despite this dominant showing over Lesnar, Paul Heyman is confident that The Beast will walk out of their WrestleMania 42 match as the victor.
Speaking with MuscleManMalcolm, Paul Heyman stated that his WWE 2K26 simulations have proven that Brock Lesnar will triumph over Oba Femi, noting:
“I think it’s Oba Femi’s moment to step up and put himself into an enormous spotlight at WrestleMania. You know, to be blunt with you, sir, I’ve actually played out this scenario for WrestleMania in WWE 2K26.
“Every single time that I’ve pitted Brock Lesnar against Oba Femi, The Beast conquers the Ruler. Every. Single. Time.
“And WrestleMania won’t be any different, and I can say that with confidence because I’ve played it from every different perspective within the video game. Your winner every single time is Brock Lesnar.”

When asked if he’s nervous that real life will be different from the video game following Femi dropping Lesnar on Raw, Heyman responded:
“We weren’t expecting Oba Femi to come out. When you have the element of surprise, you have the advantage.
“But when you are a marquee match in what I consider to be the main event of WrestleMania, because anytime Brock Lesnar appears at WrestleMania, that’s the main event. When you’re going to step into that spotlight, Brock Lesnar knows you’re coming.
“You’re coming straight up against him in an advertised match that Brock Lesnar has a game plan walking in. The game plan is to conquer when no one on the face of this or any other planet can stop Brock Lesnar once he has his focus on you.”

Oba Femi also confronted Brock Lesnar on the March 23 Raw episode, clotheslining him over the top rope to once again one-up The Beast.
With these strong showings, it’s clear that WWE is putting in the effort to make Oba Femi look like a star.
While Lesnar may be victorious at WrestleMania to build to his rumored retirement match, it would make sense for Oba Femi to pick up the win, firmly establishing him as WWE’s next big thing.
