Myles Borne Names Oba Femi ‘Pizza Toss’ As The WWE Move He Hates Taking The Most, ‘I Think The Rule Should Be, If You Have A Move, You Have To Take It One Time’

No-Contest Wrestling/WWE

NXT North American Champion Myles Borne has named the Oba Femi “pizza toss” as the WWE move he hates taking the most.

During Femi’s NXT Championship reign last year, one of his challengers was Myles Borne as the two had a match at Battleground in May 2025.

In an interview on the No-Contest Wrestling podcast, Borne was discussing how bumps in pro-wrestling compare to his time in amateur wrestling, and spoke about how Femi’s “pizza toss” move is the move he most hates taking, even joking that there should be a rule that wrestlers should have to take their own moves at least once to know what they feel like.

He explained:

“Oba’s pizza toss. I’ll take pretty much anything, there’s nothing on the table that I’m not… I might be a little (grimaces), but we’re gonna do it. Once the cameras are live, I’m game.

“But when he picked me up for that pizza toss, I’ve got no choice, I’m in the air, there’s nothing I can do. And he just lets you go. That bump right there, it’ll knock the breath out of you.

“I took it once and I remember I hit and I just immediately lost my breath, and I just rolled out. It was a live show, I don’t even know where we were, we were on a tour, and I just rolled out and I said, ‘I’m done, that’s it.’

“It’s funny, I always tell the guys who do big moves like that, once I took them, I’d be like, ‘That sucks,’ and they would always be like, ‘Ah, it’s not that bad, you’re fine.’ And I would just say, ‘Well have you ever taken it?’ Of course, who’s gonna throw Oba? No-one’s throwing Oba.

“But I had a rule in my head, I think the rule should be, if you have a move, you have to take it one time.”

Someone who may have had the strength to throw Oba Femi, Brock Lesnar, fell to Femi at WrestleMania a couple of weeks ago and seemingly retired directly the match.

Meanwhile, Femi has announced the Oba Femi Open Challenge that will seemingly take place every week on WWE Raw going forward.
