03:41What a moment for Oba Femi.
03:44Over 50,000 chanting his name to the first WrestleMania from this young man from Nigeria.
03:51However, things just got real Brock Lesnar, who for the first time in his career, maybe
04:00seen himself as an underdog in the heels in a match against the man the size of Oba Femi.
04:07Yeah, I'd say pop the brakes on that one, Michael Cole, I think Brock has set a trap for the
04:14rookie Oba Femi.
04:15He got Oba Femi.
04:23He may have been hustler, but the most decorated combat sports athlete ever, Brock Lesnar, looking
04:33into the eyes of that man who is a track and field star.
04:38He represented the one-time outdoor, a one-time outdoor, two-time indoor, the first NIL athlete to win a
04:50championship, that was in NXT, and tonight his first WrestleMania against one of the most decorated WrestleMania superstars of all
04:59time, the beast, Brock Lesnar.
05:04Brock Lesnar, the most famous combat athlete on planet Earth, and what a perfect matchup for the fight capital of
05:13the world.
05:16Let's take a look now at the tail of the tape between these two gigantic superstars, Wade.
05:27Both massive human beings, perhaps overtipping the scale slightly, but wow, what a matchup, carbon copies of one another.
05:37Let's head up to Alicia Taylor.
05:51Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Paul Heyman.
05:59Tonight, the beast, the conqueror, the real ruler of WrestleMania, Brock Lesnar.
06:19And his opponent, from Lagos, Nigeria, weighing in at 310 pounds, Umba Femi.
06:41You have to believe that the nerves are turning inside of Umba Femi, his first WrestleMania, against a man who
06:49has dominated the likes of The Undertaker, Kurt Angle, Goldberg, Roman Reigns, here on this grand stage.
06:58Bell rings, we are underway for one of the most anticipated matches in the history of WrestleMania.
07:06Lesnar, Femi.
07:10And a collar and elbow tie-up.
07:12Absolute stalemate here.
07:16You saw the tail of the tape pretty even between these two men.
07:20If you're Lesnar, what do you need to do to take out Femi tonight?
07:23Well, Lesnar's smarts lie in the fact that he's got 25 years in the fight game.
07:29This cannot just be about pure power.
07:32Brock Lesnar is a bully in the ring.
07:34He cannot bully someone who is equally as powerful as him.
07:38He needs to dig deep and do something cunning.
07:40And Wade, you've been in a number of WrestleMania matches.
07:43Your first one ever with the nerves there.
07:44What does Umba have to do to combat that?
07:46I'll tell you right now, my first WrestleMania match, my body felt like lead.
07:51And it took a long time to shake that feeling off.
07:53If that's the case with Umba here, he's gonna be in big trouble.
07:57And Brock Lesnar overpowering Femi into the corner.
08:00Delivering shoulders to the gut of Femi.
08:02And Femi stands up, shouts in his face, and knocks Lesnar to the match.
08:08And nobody has ever treated Brock Lesnar like this.
08:12And a clothesline, Femi does not go down.
08:15And another one by Lesnar.
08:17And Femi's still on his feet.
08:19Lesnar with a look of shock in his eye.
08:21And down goes the beast.
08:25And Brock Lesnar needs to regroup.
08:28Paul Heyman doesn't know what to make of this.
08:41I told you, he's out of sorts, Wade.
08:43Lesnar's never used, has never been in this position in his life.
08:47Well, he may well be physically outmatched here.
08:50And that is simply not an equation that works in the mind of the beast Brock Lesnar.
08:56Stop thinking quick, Paul Heyman.
08:58And this is what Lesnar, he could ill afford this, Wade.
09:01He's allowing Femi now to build confidence.
09:04Femi now knows he can go toe-to-toe with Lesnar.
09:07He's got nothing to fear at this point.
09:08That's not human.
09:09Oh my God!
09:11He's speculating about those moves and that is exactly what Brock needed to do.
09:16Get away from the pure power battle.
09:18Get the advantage any way you can.
09:20Oh, and into the post spine first.
09:22And that was a mistake Femi made.
09:24Brock Lesnar, the veteran, found the opening.
09:27And now Lesnar on the attack.
09:32And into the steps on the other side.
09:35And now Brock Lesnar's in his element.
09:38And that was shoulder first into those steps.
09:40It was about as bad a way as you can hit it outside of the head, of course.
09:45And Femi favoring his elbow as he drops to a knee.
09:48And Brock Lesnar about to bring Femi to Suplex City.
09:56We saw John Cena, our host, kick off the show tonight.
10:00Ask Mr. Cena what it's like to be in the ring.
10:03It brought Lesnar yet another release German.
10:07And it just goes to show you how tactics at this level are vital.
10:13It cannot simply be about who is the biggest, who is the strongest.
10:18And now Lesnar closing in on his third German suplex of the match.
10:25And now Brock Lesnar is being back to the Brock Lesnar we know only so well.
10:32And Femi's hurt, Wade.
10:33Oba Femi is hurt.
10:34The destruction outside the ring.
10:36And now the suplexes have taken down the ruler.
10:41This is a learning experience now for Oba Femi.
10:45And looking for another German, but Oba Femi firing back with the elbows.
10:50Remember it was Lesnar who eliminated Femi back in the Royal Rumble match.
10:54Well, into the corner with a running uppercut.
10:57Well, Brock is wobbled here, Cole.
10:58The big man with another running uppercut.
11:01He's got a big elbow on the temple and hasn't looked right since, but here we go.
11:04Lesnar now with Femi up on his shoulders.
11:07Brock Lesnar, looking to put him away.
11:09F5 to Femi.
11:11F5 to Oba Femi.
11:12Hey, look at this.
11:17Oh, but Femi got back to his feet after the F5.
11:23Oh, and a chunk slam by Femi.
11:26Both athletes dropping their nuclear bombs.
11:32Femi ondeers.
11:33Femi!
11:33Femi!
11:33Measuring Leicester.
11:35Leicester's up!
11:37No freaking way!
11:40Fall from the race!
11:41Femi!
11:42Femi with to win!
11:45Here is your winner, Oba Femi!
12:15I'm not sure all the Febby can quite believe in Wade.
12:18While the world is in shock, Obafemi took everything that Brock Lesnar could throw at him, including this F5.
12:29Brock Lesnar knows he has this in the bag, it's game over, except this guy Obafemi is built a little
12:38bit different to anything we've witnessed before.
12:41And one fall from Grace later, Obafemi has just written his ticket to the very top of this industry right
12:52off the bat.
12:53Wow! I want you to look at the ring right now. I want you to look inside the ring right
12:58now as we see Obafemi making his way back up the ramp.
13:02Brock Lesnar is laid out. Brock Lesnar hasn't moved. Brock Lesnar was taken down by Febby tonight.
13:09Obafemi is everything he said he was, the ruler and destroyer, the bringer of war. This is the one we've
13:19waited for.
13:34We have to see this one more time here.
13:38I'm still in shock. The fall from Grace from Obafemi to the beast Brock Lesnar.
13:47And who the hell in history has thrown Brock Lesnar's body around with ease like Obafemi?
13:57Paul Heyman in complete shock. Lesnar's the man who ended the Undertaker's undefeated streak at WrestleMania.
14:06But Obafemi has slayed the beast tonight.
14:13Obafemi, ladies and gentlemen, is the next big thing.
