In this listicle, we will look at three reasons why Oba Femi must defeat Bron Breakker at Sunday Night’s Main Event.

#3. Oba Femi needs to keep his momentum after beating Brock Lesnar

Oba Femi is heading into the match after the biggest victory of his career. The Ruler defeated Brock Lesnar inside Hell in a Cell at SummerSlam. Lesnar even embraced Femi afterward and called him the future of WWE.

That win came after a strong run for Femi. He won the 2026 King of the Ring tournament, defeating Jey Uso in the final before conquering The Beast Incarnate at SummerSlam.

WWE has clearly been building Femi as one of its next major stars. A loss to Bron Breakker so soon after beating Lesnar could take some of that momentum away. A win would allow Femi to keep building on what has been a very strong year for him.

#2. The Ruler would get one step closer to the world title scene

Oba Femi has already earned a world championship opportunity once this year. After winning King of the Ring, The Ruler had the chance to pursue a world title. However, he chose to face Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam instead.

Since that match is now behind him, Femi can turn his attention back to the world title picture, and beating Breakker would help. Another high-profile singles win would give him more momentum and make it easier for WWE to move him into the main event when the right opportunity comes up.

#1. The difference in attitudes

There is an interesting difference in how the two men have approached this match. Bron Breakker has become increasingly frustrated with Oba Femi’s rise. He clearly does not like being viewed as the one behind The Ruler in WWE’s next generation.

That could make a difference when they finally meet in the ring. Breakker is trying to prove something. On the other hand, Femi does not seem to feel that he has anything to prove.

If Breakker lets his frustration take over, Femi could take advantage of a mistake and pick up the win. A loss could also give The Dog an interesting direction. His obsession with proving himself could grow even stronger, pushing him to become more aggressive and desperate to reach the top.

Femi would get the important victory, while Breakker could use the setback to develop his character and become a bigger threat going forward.
