WWE NXT Champion Oba Femi was confronted by TNA X-Division Champion Moose on the February 18, edition of WWE NXT and now The Ruler has returned the favor. During the February 20 episode of TNA iMPACT Wrestling, Oba Femi made a surprise appearance, interrupting Moose to the delight of the live crowd in Orlando’s Full Sail University.
Although Femi didn’t get physical, his presence alone made Femi and The System running, leaving Femi to stand side-by-side with The Hardys and JDC. Following the confrontation, Santino Marella made a match for next week: Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers, and Moose will take on the Hardy Boys and Oba Femi.
Femi and Moose’s face-to-face on WWE NXT saw the pair vow that a match between the two is coming, with Moose adding that it’s just a few weeks away. Though no date has been confirmed, speculation is growing among fans that TNA Sacrifice on March 14 could be when this showdown takes place.
Femi’s arrival on iMPACT shows that even the top stars of NXT aren’t afraid to ‘cross the line’ as part of the WWE-TNA partnership. With a six-man tag-team match set for next week’s iMPACT, and the Hardys heading to NXT next week, fans have plenty to look forward to in this exciting crossover.
