The “Super Megaweight” is coming home. Omos, the 7’3” “Nigerian Giant,” announced his return to WWE after a brief yet impactful run in Pro Wrestling NOAH. During a heartfelt farewell at a NOAH event in Japan, Omos relinquished his GHC Tag Team Championship, which he held alongside Jack Morris for 24 dominant days. While his time with NOAH was short, his undefeated streak and powerhouse performances left an indelible mark.
In his farewell speech, Omos passed the torch—or in this case, the belt—to Daga, who will now join Morris as the new GHC Tag Team Champions. “Please increase the value of this belt,” Omos said, promising that he would return to NOAH someday. For now, the “Nigerian Giant” has his sights set back on WWE.
Omos’ Legacy in NOAH
Omos joined Pro Wrestling NOAH as a surprise partner to Jack Morris at the New Year’s Day event at Nippon Budokan, where they captured the GHC Tag Team Titles by defeating Naomichi Marufuji and Takashi Sugiura. Alongside Team 2000X—Daga, Yoshitatsu, OZAWA, Yu Owada, and Tetsuya Endo—Omos became the glue of the group, standing tall in singles, tag, and six-man matches. With six straight wins to his name, he leaves NOAH as one of the most dominant forces in recent memory.
What’s Next for Omos in WWE?
Omos hasn’t been seen in WWE since the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal on the April 5, 2024, edition of SmackDown. With no singles championships in his WWE history—his only title being the Raw Tag Team Championship with AJ Styles back in 2021—this return could be a fresh start. Will Omos dominate as a solo star, or will he find a new tag partner to carry him to gold? Either way, his towering presence is bound to shake things up.
