Oba Femi aims at WWE’s newest couple before the title match

Things are heating up before NXT Battleground as Oba Femi gets ready to defend his NXT Championship against Myles Borne. This match was already big, but now it has become personal.What started as a title match has pivoted into a serious rivalry with real feelings involved.A big reason for this extra drama is the rumored relationship between Myles Borne and NXT Women’s Champion Stephanie Vaquer. WWE couples are not new, but the timing of this news is making fans pay more attention. It is coming right before Borne’s biggest match, adding more excitement and tension.Oba Femi made things personal when he spoke in an interview with WFLA’s Stream Center. Instead of only talking about the match, he took a shot at Myles Borne by bringing up his relationship with Vaquer. This made the rivalry even more serious.“I mean, I’m looking forward to, you know, beating up Stephanie’s boyfriend for a little bit. But I have a one-on-one match with Miles Borne. He’s uh—he’s worked his way up the ranks and uh—he’s won a couple matches to earn an opportunity for the NXT Championship, which I respect, but at the end of the day, this is not a Disney movie. You don’t get the happy ending. You don’t get to run off into the sunset with my belt. And uh—I’m going to retain on Sunday at the Yuengling Center.”After those comments, Femi and Borne came face-to-face on NXT this week. The crowd could feel the tension. This is no longer just about wrestling. For Borne, it is now about regard and standing up for himself.Myles Borne’s journey to this match has been inspiring. He is partially deaf, but he has never let that stop him. He recently won a 25-man battle royal to earn this title shot. He has worked very hard and has become a role model for many people going through their own struggles.While Borne is focused on the NXT title, Stephanie Vaquer is in the headlines in her own way. She has been wrestling on main roster shows, which does not happen often for NXT stars. She even had a 15-minute match with Women’s World Champion IYO SKY on the Raw after WrestleMania. The match ended suddenly when Roxanne Perez ran in and attacked Sky. Later, Vaquer shared her thoughts during an interview with WWE Die Woche.“(It was) good, but (there was) no finish in this match, no end, so I want more. I want one more, yeah, please, please. She’s amazing so, I want one more.”Now, all eyes are on NXT Battleground. Fans are ready to see if Borne can win the biggest match of his career. With Femi’s harsh words and Vaquer’s rising star power, this match means a lot more than just a title.Also Read: WWE NXT star Stephanie Vaquer reveals powerful inspiration behind her iconic look
