Oba Femi may be dominating WWEs main roster with power and presence, but behind the scenes, hes been soaking up wisdom from one of the greatest to ever do it John Cena. During a recent appearance on the No-Contest Wrestling Podcast, the former NXT Champion opened up about the advice Cena gave him before stepping fully into the WWE spotlight. And it wasnt about lifting heavier or hitting harder. It was about owning the moment. Oba explained that Cena is obsessed with creating memorable crowd interactions those seconds inside a match that fans remember long after the final bell rings. That phrase wasnt random. Oba broke down exactly what Cena meant and how it applies to the way he performs. That wasnt a throwaway tip. Oba made it clear this stuck with him. If youve been watching Oba Femi lately, youve already seen the shift. The slower walk to the ring. The stare before delivering a move. The talking under his breath as he circles a fallen opponent. The pauses. The breathing space. The control. Its not just dominance its theater. John Cena built his career on knowing when to slow things down and command the crowds full attention. Now Oba Femi is applying that same strategy as he transitions from NXT standout to WWE main roster threat. Instead of rushing through destruction, hes making you sit with it. And that might be the most dangerous evolution of his game yet. Do you see the difference in Oba Femis in-ring presence since his main roster debut? Has John Cenas advice already elevated his performance, or do you think he was already operating at that level? Drop your thoughts in the comments and let us know what you think.
