Oba Femi Retains his gold Against Je’Von Evans On WWE NXT, After Ricky Starks Interference. Just days after winning the Men’s Iron Survivor Challenge Match at WWE Deadline, Je’Von Evans dropped a major announcement during the opening segment of tonight’s WWE NXT.
Rather than waiting until New Year’s Evil for his guaranteed NXT Championship opportunity against Oba Femi, Je’Von Evans instead challenged “The Ruler” to a title match in the main event of tonight’s show.
After taking Femi to his limits and hitting him with several Frog Splashes and Cutters, Evans seemingly had the champion beat, only for Saints to drag the referee out of the ring at the last second. Evans wasted no time in laying out Saints with a dive, but the momentum had already shifted as back in the ring Femi cut him off and landed his powerbomb for the win. The show closed with Saints smirking at the result of the match.
