Moose says he'll make Oba Femi trust the system.
TNA X-Division Champion Moose made his WWE in-ring debut on the February 25th episode of NXT, as he defeated Lexis King to retain his title. NXT Champion Oba Femi confronted him after the match and announced that he would defend his title against Moose at NXT Roadblock.
In an NXT digital exclusive, Moose was asked about his NXT in-ring debut.
“It’s an awesome experience. Every weight I’ve ever lifted, every flight I’ve ever boarded on, every country I’ve ever went to, every championship I’ve ever won prepared me for this moment. But like the great Bill Belichick says, it’s just another day at the office," Moose said.
Moose was then asked about how the fans cheered for him, and he said he wasn't used to that, as the TNA crowds usually booed him. Moose gave King credit for being a tough competitor, but he stated that he showed him why he was called a wrestling god. When asked about facing Oba Femi, Moose looked forward to the match.
“It’s a matchup I’ve been looking for for a very long time. I’ll be honest, I have a ton of respect for Oba. He’s done a lot of great things in the last two years. But let’s be honest, without me, there wouldn’t be no Oba. At Roadblock, I’m gonna prove that to him. I’m also gonna make him trust the system," Moose said.
