Lesnar and Femi are scheduled to conclude their trilogy with a Hell in a Cell Match at SummerSlam 2026. An hour ago, WWE announced that the much-awaited bout will take place on Night One of The Biggest Party of the Summer.

The Beast Incarnate vs. The Ruler opened Night Two of The Showcase of the Immortals. Many fans felt it was the perfect spot for a bout of that magnitude. Hence, their Hell in a Cell bout was also expected to kick off SummerSlam Sunday.

WWE made a massive change to its approach by booking Lesnar vs. Femi III for Night One of SummerSlam. WrestleMania Saturday was widely viewed as a flop. Therefore, the company might have decided to change the bout’s positioning to prevent SummerSlam Saturday from being a failure.

Triple H Revealed How Brock Lesnar vs. Oba Femi at WWE WrestleMania 42 Came Together

Oba Femi debuted on the main roster at Royal Rumble 2026 following a remarkable run in NXT. The Ruler’s first major feud came against Brock Lesnar. Despite being relatively new to the business, Femi retired The Beast Incarnate after handing him a humiliating loss at WrestleMania 42.

Lesnar’s retirement turned out to be a ruse. He returned to WWE for revenge against Femi ahead of Clash in Italy. Their feud has reached its boiling point ahead of their Hell in a Cell Match at SummerSlam.

In the latest season of WWE: Unreal on Netflix, Chief Content Officer Triple H disclosed how Lesnar vs. Femi at ‘Mania materialized.

“There’s not a lot [of] real estate on WrestleMania, but Oba Femi is the most legitimate bad motherf*cker that has walked through the door in a while. They’re already going like, ‘Holy sh*t, him against Brock Lesnar,” Triple H said.

Fans must stay tuned to find out if Femi can defeat Lesnar for the second time and win the high-profile feud.
