WWE winds down their road to Night Of Champions this afternoon with a special live daytime episode of WWE Raw at the O2 Arena in London, England.
And we’re officially off-and-running from the U.K., as the commentators welcome us to the show following the usual opening ‘WWE Then. Now. Forever. Together.’ signature narrated by Paul ‘Triple H’ Levesque. We see Superstar arrivals and then a video package on the King and Queen of the Ring.
2026 WWE King Of The Ring Finalists Kick Things Off
Inside the arena, the lights go out and the drums begin, as “The Ruler” himself emerges from the massive spotlight on the entrance area. Oba Femi struts down to the ring to kick off the WWE Night Of Champions “go-home” red brand show.
The crowd chants his name as he struts down to the ring. He’ll face Jey Uso in the King of the Ring Finals this Saturday at WWE Night of Champions. Femi stands in the ring as the crowd loudly chants to him. “Oba! Oba!” He soaks it all in.
Femi says, “You guys are wonderful here in London tonight.” As much as he’d love for them to chant his name all night… he’s cut off by more chants of his name. Femi listens for a bit before asking them to settle down. Since he was born, he’s been backed by destiny.
She’s been very kind to him. Destiny led him to WWE, allowed him to slay The Beast, and brought him this far in the tournament. Good news: Destiny is still on his side. This weekend, at Night of Champions, destiny will take him to new heights as he becomes the new King of the Ring.
With that said, the crowd loudly chants his name again. Femi then asks what happens when he becomes King of the Ring. He still faces a dilemma in choosing a champion. Does he go after the WWE Championship or does he go after the World Heavyweight Championship?
The crowd loudly cheers the World Heavyweight Championship and chants, “OTC.” On that note, we hear “USO!” as the familiar sounds of the YEET-tastic Jey Uso hits the house speakers inside the O2 Arena. “Main Event” Jey Uso makes his way to the ring through the crowd.
Uso mocks Femi’s strut as he comes down from the stands and then rolls into YEETing with the crowd. Uso goes to run his entrance back and Femi says he’ll stop that right now but Uso goes forward with it. Uso tells Femi that he’s “him” and he’s now in London.
Uso tells Femi that he shouldn’t count Uso out because he’s used to it and he overcomes it all. Uso says he’ll silence the haters and shock the world and he’ll become the king that he is and he’ll take Cody Rhodes’ title. Femi tells Uso that he’ll destroy him because at the end of the day Uso isn’t the family member he’s worried about and tells Uso he’ll send him back to Roman Reigns with a message after the finals.
