It seems that WWE sees this as a major episode of SmackDown, given that there is no PLE now until October. It’s unclear what Oba Femi will be doing as part of the show, since he has been appearing on RAW since his debut on the main roster, but this could be so that he could work with specific names.

Oba Femi retired Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam

Brock Lesnar came up short inside Hell in a Cell in what was his third match against Oba Femi and then put over The Nigerian star on his way out of the company. It wasn’t until later that Lesnar announced that this would be his final match and he wouldn’t be returning to the ring.

This means that in perhaps the first big feud of his career, Femi was able to retire Brock Lesnar, which means that the dream match between Lesnar and Gunther is not going to happen now.

Gunther has retired several names over the past few years, including John Cena, AJ Styles, and Goldberg, and many believed that he would be the one who retired Brock Lesnar, but that accolade now belongs to Femi.

WWE now has the headache of trying to book The Ruler following this win, since it’s going to be hard for them to find a way to push him forward after such a massive career moment, but it will be interesting to see what happens on SmackDown.

There are plenty of stars in that locker room who could step up to Femi, but right now there is no match announced for The Ruler. With two weeks to go until SmackDown in Toronto, it could take shape on next week’s show.
