The 25-year-old Nigerian star won the NXT Breakout Star tournament at NXT: New Year’s Evil by defeating Riley Osborne. He immediately cashed in his NXT Breakout tournament contract and defeated Dragon Lee to become the new NXT North American Champion. The win also made him the youngest-ever African-born wrestler to hold the title.

Oba revealed his heel persona when he denied Lee his title opportunity in a cocky way and closed the open challenge for the title. It will be interesting to see whether Lee becomes the 2-time NXT North American Champion and ends the title reign of the monstrous giant or not.
