The Undertaker makes bold claim about 416 lbs WWE Superstar
WWE Hall of Famer The Undertaker recently praised a major star who has been absent from television for some time. The name in question would be 416-pound Omos.
This year, The Nigeriant Giant has made only two TV appearances - one was at the Royal Rumble in January and another during the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal on SmackDown in April.
Omos recently appeared on the Six Feet Under with Mark Calaway podcast. The Deadman claimed that the 416-pound super heavyweight is one of his favorite WWE personalities, highlighting his immense size and potential.
The Undertaker compared Omos to a larger version of Kane, emphasizing his physical dominance and promising future in the Stamford-based promotion.
"I'm so happy you're here because you honestly are one of my favorite people in WWE at the moment. He has so many qualities. He [Omos] is very Kane-like, only bigger which is insane to think about how big Kane is. But, as a human being, just an unbelievable human being, and only begin[ning] to scratch the surface, I think of what you're going to do with WWE," he said. (From 01:14 to 01:46]

The Undertaker believes Omos could play a massive role in WWE
In his three-decade-long career as a professional wrestler, The Phenom emerged as a respected locker room leader. The Hall of Famer has a similar suggestion for Omos.
Speaking on his Patreon Q&A, The Undertaker noted that The Nigerian Giant could take on the role of a protective gatekeeper in WWE, similar to his own past role.
"I believe he becomes like the guardian of the castle, basically like I used to be. Anybody, any giant monster, anybody that ever came down the pike, I always got them. It was because I was an attraction, and I kept the castle clean. I didn't get as many world title opportunities and all that. But you knew, if there was a threat to the kingdom, they knew who they were gonna, they were gonna - and I feel eventually that's gonna be his role. He will be the one that decides who comes and who goes in a storytelling aspect," Taker said.
While the 416-pound superstar has faced prominent figures like Brock Lesnar, Seth Rollins, and others, the company currently seems to lack a clear direction for Omos.
The wrestling world eagerly awaits to see if The Nigerian Giant will receive the massive push predicted by The Undertaker.
