The 7'3" Giant was in action on an NXT house show on October 10 as well, where he reigned supreme against Myles Borne. The former WWE RAW Tag Team Champion also faced Oba Femi on a house show on October 11, which ended in a no contest.

It is for those who, on their journey called life, are bold enough to take that leap of faith to achieve their dreams. It is also for those who are still discovering who they are. In short, it's for everyone!" wrote Omos.

Former WWE star Odyssey Jones talked about Omos' booking

During an edition of the Generation of Wrestling podcast in August 2025, Odyssey Jones said that he believed Omos had an extremely likable personality and the Triple H-led creative team should let him shine instead of booking him like a "King Kong."

"He has such a great personality. He’s built as a monster because he's a large black man. And unfortunately, in this world, large black man or King Kong. I don't know why. (...) I get that he's large, but he has so much personality. If you let him get it out, and if you don't put him in that box and you allow him to kind of be himself, I think he'll grow to that as time goes," Jones said.

It remains to be seen what the Stamford-based promotion has planned for Omos' WWE future.
