US EditionBREAKING: Oba Femi Walks Out of WWE Show; Leaves NXT Championship in the Ring
Oba Femi's deliberate act of leaving the NXT Championship belt in the ring suggests a potential vacating of the title as he is believed to be moving to WWE's main roster.
- On Tuesday at NXT New Year's Evil, Oba Femi defeated Leon Slater, TNA X-Division Champion, to retain the NXT Championship but left the belt in the center of the WWE Performance Center ring.
- The move left the NXT Championship's immediate future in question, and some observers say Oba Femi, The Ruler, appears main roster bound after the walk-off, while Femi vowed `I am going to finish what I started last year`.
- After misfiring on a Swanton Bomb 450, Leon Slater was put down by Oba Femi's Fall From Grace to end the match on Tuesday.
- WWE's social posts on Tuesday called Oba Femi the NXT Champion but also said the title appears vacated while Jacy Jayne, NXT Women's Champion, retains her belt.
- Other segments included Fatal Influence interfering in Jacy Jayne, NXT Women's Champion's match and Blake Monroe attacking Thea Hail before General Manager Ava barred him from the building, while Ricky Saints cut a promo putting the NXT Champion on notice.
