Seth Rollins will apparently have a tough time when he meets fellow WWE Superstar Omos at Backlash 2023 in Puerto Rico.
Last night, WWE surprised fans by announcing that The Nigerian Giant would face Seth Rollins in the upcoming Backlash 2023 PLE. Many fans weren’t happy that the match was randomly booked without explaining why the two men were fighting.
One fan took to Instagram to explain the story of Omos and The Visionary, making it clear that the match wasn’t booked by accident. He also looked back on a number of interactions the two men have had in the past.
The fan recalled that Rollins ruined Omos’ celebration after beating Matt Riddle last year. He explained that Backlash’s competition is not a random match, but a “revenge match,” adding that The Nigerian Giant does not forget.
The 7’3” WWE Superstar noticed the post and was totally fine with it. He shared a three-word reaction to it, as seen below:
“I never forgot it,” he wrote.

Omos’ ultimate goal is much bigger than defeating Seth Rollins
The Nigerian-American pro wrestler has done quite well on WWE’s main roster over the years. He recently faced off against Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 39 but unfortunately failed to kill The Beast Incarnate.
Speaking to Good Karma Wrestling last year, his manager MVP explained that the giant will eventually win the WWE Championship:
“I hope to accomplish one thing at this point in my career and that is to lead The Nigerian Giant to championship gold. He knows what it means to be a winner. He’s been a winner all his life… The WWE Championship, I’d say, is inevitable. We’re going to make it, but it’s not easy… You have some amazing talents, amazingly talented people.
It remains to be seen if Omos manages to win WWE’s Grand Prize in the distant future. For now, however, he has his sights set on Seth Rollins.
Many fans are looking forward to this competition and it would certainly be interesting to see who comes out on top.
