Bronson Reed addresses Oba Femi amid backstage rumors

"

Bronson Reed has now publicly addressed the much-debated incident involving him and Oba Femi from the September 7 episode of Raw. Following a beatdown courtesy of The Vision, Femi laid on the mat while Reed and the other members of the heel stable stood over him. Reed then went for a trophy pose by putting his foot on Femi’s back, but the Nigerian big man reacted angrily and appeared to go off script by forcefully pushing away the foot. After clips of the moment were shared widely on social media, a fierce debate broke out among internet wrestling fans. Some argued that Reed took liberties with Oba by attempting the pose, while others contended that Femi should have laid still and allowed the pose instead of breaking character. Reed chalked the moment up to two men wanting to be on top during a recent appearance on The West Sport podcast. “I think you got to remember, I am the top dog. I’m always going to assert dominance, and that’s what I would try to do, and he’s very much the same,” Bronson said. “That’s why he obviously hit my foot off.” He continued: “So, if people have speculation about these things, then go for it, speculate. But of course, both of us want to be number one, and we’re going to do whatever it takes to be number one.” The Australian wrestler then indicated he had observed Femi become a big WWE star while he was sidelined with a torn biceps. “While I was away for those six months, I made sure to watch Monday nights, every single week, and I saw the rise of Oba Femi, and how much he’s become a big part of WWE. He is one of the mainstays now. “I think you should always be gunning for the top spot. So, if that’s what has happened in these last six months, that’s who I’m targeting.” What do you think of Reed’s comments about the boot-shove incident? Let us know in the comments.
