Omos hasn’t worked a WWE match since he participated within the Andre the Broad Memorial Fight Royal on April 5, but it appears to be like he’s spellbinding nearer to a return. On Friday, files broke that the 7-foot-4 huge is living to assemble his debut with Skilled Wrestling Noah, a promotion in Japan.
Omos will be teaming with Jack Morris and anxious for the GHC assign-workforce titles, per the promotion’s respectable X yarn. Right here’s Omos’ introduction video.
Besides a stint as AJ Kinds’ bodyguard that ended in a 133-day urge as assign-workforce champions with the Extra special One, Omos’ WWE profession has been basically non-descript.
WWE in most cases entered Omos into feuds with the likes of Bobby Lashley and Brock Lesnar, correct for him to be beaten and extinct to re-build noteworthy superstars. Omos has the assign of the extinct WWE huge.
He’s huge and has mastered having a assign menacing. However, that gimmick couldn’t be additional from his precise persona. Omos paints, always comes off as pleasant, and is highly shimmering and thoughtful.
You can look and hear all of those qualities within the interview underneath from a most traditional episode of The Undertaker’s podcast.
Unfortunately, WWE hasn’t figured out how to market him beyond basing every thing on his size. Let’s be right, he’s a legit 7-foot-4, so ignoring that on the earth of respectable wrestling makes no sense.
It’s possible no longer a coincidence that Omos became as soon as a customer on The Undertaker’s podcast and that, internal the same week, he showed up at Skilled Wrestling Noah.
WWE would possibly possibly possibly also merely be making ready him for a re-initiating of his persona, and it’s that you might possibly possibly presumably reflect of this would possibly possibly possibly possibly also merely be linked to the promotion’s upcoming debut on Netflix.
Omos hasn’t been announced for the kickoff of Raw on the streaming platform, scheduled for January 6, but I’d suspect all kinds of surprises to be delivered as WWE makes an strive to assemble a assign on Netflix.
Finally, I’m hoping Omos’ next urge on WWE programming is profitable and that he’s utilized because the fresh huge he has the aptitude to turn out to be.

The boulevard to the Royal Rumble is in elephantine swing. In an epic final sequence, Kevin Owens manipulated his diagram into a ladder match against Cody Rhodes for the WWE Championship.
It feels admire the dwell of Rhodes’ urge as champion would possibly possibly possibly also merely be approach. WWE has been very utter about allowing Rhodes to be pinned. In a ladder match, Owens would possibly possibly possibly exhaust the title with out having to pin Rhodes.
How amazing would it no longer’s if Owens wins which ability that of Randy Orton appears to be like and RKOs Rhodes, kicking off a feud between the outdated skool chums? Yes, that would be epic.
In the other indispensable storyline, things are coming to a head within the who-ran-over-Jade-Cargill perspective. Nia Jax accused Bianca Belair, which ended in a six-woman assign workforce match. Bianca, Naomi, and Bayley defeated Nia, Candice LeRae, and Tiffany Stratton.
The latter became as soon as seconds faraway from cashing within the Money within the Bank sooner than Lerae stopped her. I’m going to choose on up pleasure from watching those angles unfold.
