Israel Adesanya: I Really Like The Way Oba Femi Moves, I Like The Way He’s Carrying The WWE Right Now

Israel Adesanya comments on Oba Femi ‘carrying the WWE right now’ while discussing his favorite WWE theme songs of all time.

Over the years, many professional wrestlers have had iconic theme music that have become recognizable across the world for wrestling fans. While in WWE this has become less common in recent years, one theme song has still captured the attention of a former UFC Champion.

While speaking to Full Send MMA in a new interview, Israel Adesanya was asked to name his top five wrestling theme songs of all time, while he also briefly spoke about Oba Femi.

“Top five, top five. Rey Mysterio is definitely one of them. Boom, cool finishing move, 619. I’m gonna say The Rock, definitely. Then when you hear the, if you smelllll, Stone Cold. When you hear the glass shatter, you know what the fuck’s happening. I was at WrestleMania last year. It was a secret or surprise, but I kind of had a feeling he was going to pull up. But when I heard the glass shatter, I lost my fucking mind, and even Oscar was in the crowd with two beers in his hand like, hell yeah, bah. Who else? Let me think. You know what? Stacey Kiebler was nice. She was nice. (Do you remember The Godfather?) Oh, he’s the one with all the chicks. The Ho Train. Yeah, I remember him. Yeah, because we were watching wrestling with our family. So at certain times as a kid, you just kind of have to like, ‘oh, what’s he doing;  But one more, I’d say…. Yeah, you got to add that in there. No D.I. She’s legit. One more, I’d say right now, Oba Femi. I really like the way he just moves. I like the way he’s carrying the WWE right now. He’s the guy. He’s just like, he’s got that swagger. So shout out to Oba Femi. It’s not Oba, it’s Oba Femi. That’s the guy right now.”

On this past Monday’s edition of WWE RAW, Oba would once again get the upper hand over Brock Lesnar. You can read more about that here.
