Lesnar spoke to Femi and called out “The Ruler” for all the trash talk Lesnar made during his time away from the show. However, Lesnar wanted to teach Femi a lesson.
“Talk—, get hit,” Lesnar said before kicking Femi in the groin and delivering an F5 to the big man.
But that wasn’t enough to defeat Femi. He got back up and challenged Lesnar at SummerSlam at US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.
Lesnar agreed but went one step further. He said that the match will be played in Hell in a Cell. The crowd went wild and then it became official.

Raw general manager Adam Pearce said he would have no problem postponing Femi’s title shot for now.
“The championship will always be there. The championships are not going anywhere,” Femi assured Pearce. “I’ll take it any time I want it. … This needs to happen. This needs to end, and I’ll be the one to end it.”
Femi and Lesnar have been at each other’s throats since WrestleMania 42. Lesnar responded to Femi’s open challenge, sparking a match at WrestleMania 42. Femi defeated Lesnar, leading to Lesnar deciding to retire from professional wrestling, at least momentarily.
