Tony D'Angelo is the latest victim of Oba Femi. Ever since arriving in NXT, Femi has proven to be a dominant force in the ring. He quickly rose to prominence by winning the NXT Breakout Tournament. He then quickly cashed in his contract on Dragon Lee to become the new NXT North American Champion.
Since then, Femi has kept a stranglehold over the title as he destroyed anyone who dared challenge him. He has a long list of challengers that even includes former champions like Wes Lee.

Sunil admires former world champions AJ Styles, Will Ospreay, and Kenny Omega for their ability to consistently deliver great matches as well as entertain crowds with their mic skills.
If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
