The 2023 WWE Backlash Event, which took place this past Saturday from San Juan, Puerto Rico, saw Seth "Freakin" Rollins defeat "The Nigerian Giant" Omos in Singles action. Since the match had no build up before it was announced, a number of fans criticized WWE's decision to have Seth "Freakin" Rollins go up against Omos as there was also the belief that Omos wasn't ready.
Immediately following the match at Backlash, Omos proved a lot of people wrong and even though he has more work to be done to become a top WWE Star, it was quite noticeable that The Nigerian Giant's work has improved tremendously. According to PWInsider.com, WWE officials were very happy with Omos' match against Rollins at Backlash and the feeling is that it was one of the best big matches he has had.
