WWE NXT Champion Oba Femi spoke with Cameron Hawkins of Uncrowned about various topics, including other NXT stars who share his mindset toward the fans.
Femi said, “Me, Tony D’Angelo, Lexis King, Trick Williams. We all have that mindset of, ‘Oh, we’re out there. Bring it. Bring it to me. Let’s make this good. Let’s give these fans what they came to see. Let’s make their money’s worth. Let’s give them their money’s worth.’ I’m so glad we have that healthy relationship.”
On not chasing accolades:
“I don’t focus on things like [winning a title] as the big wins. This is great for me and the company as well because I plan to represent this brand the best I can. But it’s little things like putting someone else over, making someone a new star, passing on the title, passing on the mantle, having a good match with someone they didn’t think you were going to have a good match with — those are the wins for me. It’s never about the accolades in and of itself. If you chase the small victories and fall in love with the craft, you always achieve the big things.”
