Alright, let’s talk about my experience watching Omos in WWE. It’s been quite a journey just keeping track of this guy.
I first noticed him, like everyone else probably, because of his sheer size. You just couldn’t miss him. When he started showing up regularly, especially alongside AJ Styles, that caught my attention. My first thought was, “Okay, another giant, let’s see how they use him.” We’ve seen big guys come and go, you know?
So, I started paying closer attention during his run with AJ. It was clear from the get-go what the dynamic was. AJ did the heavy lifting in terms of wrestling, the fast moves, the selling, and Omos was the intimidating presence, the powerhouse finisher. It worked, for a time. They even got the tag titles.
Watching the Split and Solo Run
Then they split them up. I remember thinking, “This is where we see what he’s really got.” Because being a solo act is a whole different ballgame, especially for someone so huge who might be limited in the ring compared to smaller guys.
I kept watching his matches. Honestly? It’s been up and down for me.
- Sometimes you see a glimmer of dominance that looks cool.
- Other times, the matches feel slow, kinda repetitive.
- His opponent has to do a LOT to make the match work.
I specifically watched his feud with Bobby Lashley. That felt like a big test WWE put him through. Could he hang in a major singles program? He held his own in terms of presence, but the in-ring stuff still felt like it needed work. Lashley really carried the load there, making Omos look like a threat.
My Current Take
So, where am I at with Omos now? I still tune in when he’s on, mostly out of curiosity to see if there’s development. He’s got the look, absolutely. You can’t teach that size. But putting it all together into compelling matches week after week? That’s the hard part I’ve been observing.
It’s a slow process, this wrestling thing. Some guys click fast, others take time, some never quite get there despite the chances. Omos is still in that “wait and see” category for me. I’ve seen the company invest time in him, put him in big spots. Now it’s just about seeing if he can consistently deliver on that investment from my perspective as a viewer. It’s just been my ongoing observation, watching how they try to make it work.
