Brock Lesnar is set to face Oba Femi in the second part of their rivalry at WWE Clash in Italy 2026. While he is expected to win, so are two other major superstars in marquee matches.
The WWE Clash in Italy 2026 card has turned out to be surprisingly stacked. In the last year or more, it has been the case where WWE has been modest with their European cards as they tend to rely more on the crowd’s reactions to carry the show. As a result, there were rarely memorable shows in Europe. However, this seems to be changing in a big way as Turin will witness an epic card filled with top-tier World Title and World Title-caliber matches.
Thanks for the submission!
According to a report on Fightful Select, Brock Lesnar, Rhea Ripley, and Roman Reigns are huge creative favorites to be waing out victorious at Clash in Italy 2026. Roman Reigns faces Jacob Fatu in a Tribal Combat match, while Rhea Ripley looks to put Jade Cargill away for good in their blockbuster WrestleMania 42 rematch.
Is Brock Lesnar’s win set to make a trilogy out of the rivalry with Oba Femi?
If Brock Lesnar loses at Clash in Italy 2026, then it’s most certain that the rivalry is over. However, if he wins, he will hand Oba Femi his first defeat on the main roster, and if he pins him, he will be only the third man in all of WWE to have done so.
For those who don’t know, Tony D’Angelo pinned Oba Femi to become the NXT North American Champion. SmackDown’s newcomer Ricky Saints also pinned Oba Femi to become the NXT Champion, although he lost the title back to The Ruler fairly quickly. Lesnar could join elite company. However, with D’Angelo eventually going on to become the NXT Champion, it makes sense that only the most elite names have pinned Oba.
So what happens if Lesnar pins The Ruler? We’re almost guaranteed to get a trilogy bout at some point. One can only imagine that it will be either in the immediate premium live event, which is Night of Champions in Saudi Arabia, a little less than a month from now. Otherwise, the option would be to end it at Money in the Bank 2026.
In between Night of Champions and Money in the Bank is a special Saturday Night’s Main Event, so perhaps WWE could decide to have their rivalry come to a close with a card they could actually headline.
With that being said, many will be expecting Oba Femi to walk out the victor in this rivalry. Despite his return from retirement, there seems to be an underlying sentiment that perhaps SummerSlam in Brock Lesnar’s billed hometown of Minneapolis could be where he finally calls it quits for good.
