Braun Strowman is currently signed to WWE and fights on the SmackDown brand. Omos, on the other side, is currently signed to WWE and performs on the WWE Raw brand. The two will meet on November 5th, but they got physical at the WWE Crown Jewel Press Conference.
Braun Strowman and Omos were among the Superstars who received time during the WWE Crown Jewel press conference. When both stars took the stage, they were welcomed by Triple H and Michael Cole as their theme music played. While Omos received a lukewarm reaction, Braun’s entrance received a massive pop from fans.
Strowman was asked whether he wanted to say anything to his opponent tomorrow night. Strowman said, “Tomorrow at Crown Jewel, the Nigeria Giant, will show the world that there is only one room for one Giant and that’s me.” He then asked the crowd to remember that, “Monsters are not real, but Giants are.” The crowd booed him the entire time, but he delivered his words anyway, and even after he finished, the crowd continued screaming ‘Loser.’
Even Braun Strowman pointed to the crowd to show who they support. The crowd began cheering and chanting “Let’s go” when Braun picked up the microphone. Braun then turned to face Omos and asked, “Did you hear them?” He then went on to say that “Saudi Arabia, I love you first and foremost.”
This is the biggest challenge that I’ve ever had in my entire life. I’ve never stepped foot in front of a human being this big it is very obvious that Omos is better than me but tomorrow at Crown Jewel you are going to find out that I’m the baddest one in the building baby .
The show then progressed to the official weigh-in scale. When Omos was approaching the scale, he gave Braun a furious look. Both of them were getting closer to trying to hit each other when Triple H stepped in between them.
Braun stated something off-mic that was not audible, but the announcer claimed Braun told Omos, “he wants to know how much he weighs, so he can pick up Omos and press him over his head tomorrow night.”
Omos weighed-in at 416 pounds, whereas Braun weighed-in at 335 pounds, and both men seemed pleased with those numbers. Then, Braun pushed Omos back after placing his head on the Nigerian’s chest. After that, the situation grew more tense before Braun shoved Omos away and both men had to be held back. They were somehow stopped by Triple H, who was able to talk them down.
