Paul Heyman attempted to outsmart Oba Femi on this week's episode of WWE Raw by bringing the law into Brock Lesnar's heated rivalry, but his plan quickly spiraled out of control.
With SummerSlam on the horizon and Lesnar set to face Femi inside Hell in a Cell, Heyman unveiled his latest strategy during the opening segment of Monday night's show. Surrounded by local police officers, Heyman claimed the security presence was necessary to protect both himself and Lesnar from what he described as an "obsessive stalker."
Heyman questioned why Femi had willingly given up his guaranteed World Championship opportunity at SummerSlam simply to continue chasing Lesnar, insisting it proved the powerhouse had become fixated on The Beast. Even so, Heyman acknowledged that Lesnar was eager to finally end the rivalry inside Hell in a Cell, promising the upcoming showdown would bring the feud to a definitive conclusion.
In an effort to prevent another confrontation before the premium live event, Heyman revealed that he had obtained a restraining order against Oba Femi, adding that Lesnar had secured one as well. Declaring, "This Beast is a law abiding citizen," Heyman looked pleased with himself as Lesnar reluctantly played along.
The legal tactic lasted only moments.
Oba Femi made his way to the ring regardless, prompting Heyman to warn that he was violating the court order. Police officers stepped in and attempted to arrest the former champion, but Femi swiftly overwhelmed every officer standing in his way.
After clearing the ring, Femi turned his attention to Lesnar, accusing him of hiding behind legal paperwork instead of facing him. He claimed Lesnar once "ran the place" but now only "runs away."
Femi also explained why he sacrificed his guaranteed World Championship match at SummerSlam, saying Lesnar would have found a way to cost him that opportunity regardless. Instead, he made it clear that ending his rivalry with The Beast means more to him than chasing championship gold.
