Nigerian professional wrestler, Isaac Odugbesan (Oba Femi) could be heading for ‘a lesson about wrestling drills’ from Brock Lesnar this Saturday, when they clash at SummerSlam 2026, in an epic third bout between the two newest rivals of the roped square.

Sports247 reports that Oba Femi will step out for the third time against Lesnar on Saturday night, but the stakes are higher this time, as they will be the main attraction with a dicey tango dubbed ‘Hell In A Cell’ to determine who carries bragging rights from their festering rivalry.
Oba Femi first defeated Lesnar at WrestleMania 42, where it seemed like ‘The Beast’ had officially retired but, just a month later, he returned and got his revenge on ‘The Ruler’ during WWE’s ‘Clash In Italy,’ thereby setting them up for a thid and decisive battle.
As the trilogy apparently heads for a climax, all eyes will be on Minnesota, USA this weekend to see how things pan out, but WWE’s chief operating officer and iconic former wrestler, Triple H (real name Paul Michael Levesque) is rooting for the older grappler to carry the day.
Rather than stick his neck out for Oba Femi, who many WWE fans believe is more marketable due to his younger age, Triple H insists Lesnar has what it takes to win again, especially as the older wrestler is already playing the role of ‘teacher’ to the Nigerian fast-rising sensation.
Triple H disclosed, “Brock is hands on with Oba Femi. He sees something special there, and he’s like, ‘Okay, kid. Come with me, and I’m gonna teach you. Here’s all the things you’ve gotta learn.’
“Lesnar and Femi spend hours in the Beast Incarnate’s room, talking about the business. That level of stuff that brings this next generation up and I think we’ll take it to the next level.”
