WWE Rumors: Officials Are Reportedly High on Current WWE Champion Amid Rapid Growth
One current WWE titleholder appears to be making quite an impression.
As a WWE superstar, there is always the pressure of getting the audience invested in you. For prospects, it can be nerve-wracking, but every little bit of improvement can go a long way. If you can impress those backstage as well, things are likely to go in your favor.
It appears one WWE champion is getting the best of both worlds.
Fightful Select's Corey Brennan reports that WWE officials have heaped praise over the work of NXT North American Champion Oba Femi. The report notes that Oba has dazzled the higher-ups with his quick development. With that said, he is not expected to be rushed to the main roster.

Also mentioned in the report was that WWE officials view Oba Femi as the "total package." It's easy to see why when you watch Oba on WWE TV. Not only does he pack some muscle and has impressed with his in-ring work, but he's also been showing off his mic skills.
At the moment, Oba finds himself in a feud with Josh Briggs and Dijak going into NXT Stand & Deliver. Perhaps the three are destined for a triple threat match with the North American gold at stake, but that hasn't been confirmed at this time. The three men brawled during the March 19th episode of WWE NXT.
