>>17584987oba and trick really fill two different niches.
trick is basically jey uso version 1.5. he's got a better look, is better on the mic, is better in the ring (marginally, he's not bret hart). main hurdle is not being samoan. he'll get over big on being an entrance merchant for kids.
oba is more like an early strowman before he was so badly sawdusted. just a brick shithouse, but he's fast and agile too. can't fight him, can't run away from him. and also african. great powerhouse worker. when he got comfortable on the mic he became a good promo.
oba's the smark pick and will surely eventually have the better legacy, but i don't think he's as marketable as trick is. oba will probably get a good push but they're gonna make trick a huge deal as soon as he hits the main roster. both will probably be world champions, but think like how jey vs gunther are viewed by the company in terms of hierarchy. that's how they'll pan out.
