WWE

A WWE Hall of Famer has pitched a main roster championship match for Oba Femi, having witnessed proceedings at Saturday Night’s Main Event.

The December 13 show saw members of the NXT roster take on main roster stars, with Oba Femi taking on Cody Rhodes.

Femi is the current NXT Champion, while Rhodes holds the WWE Championship, and Mark Henry is interested in seeing a title match between the pair.

With their recent match going to no-contest due to interference from Drew McIntyre, Henry is eager to see the two title holders cross paths again.

Sharing a video on Twitter, Henry shared his thoughts about the pair and where such a match could take place in a caption that reads:

“Sit ringside with me for #SNME and this tremendous match between @CodyRhodes & @Obaofwwe!

“This is sure to be something we see again on a bigger show!”

The video featured a voiceover from the WWE Hall of Famer where he went into more detail about his experience during the Rhodes vs. Femi match, saying:

“As I sat at ringside and watched Oba Femi and Cody Rhodes, all I could see was that match again for a title one day. But not just for the sake of showing champion vs champion, but for all the marbles.

“Maybe you see Cody Rhodes vs Oba Femi for the WWE Title, that’s how impressive it was to see those two guys work. Looking forward to the future.”

Sit ringside with me for #SNME and this tremendous match between @CodyRhodes & @Obaofwwe ! This is sure to be something we see again on a bigger show!
