Omos has put together a wrestling-heavy answer to one of combat sports and internet culture’s favorite hypothetical questions: who would be in his Waffle House scrap pack?
Appearing in a new interview with MuscleManMalcolm, the WWE and AAA giant was asked to name the people he would want alongside him if chaos broke out inside the late-night restaurant chain. Omos did not hesitate before naming a lineup built around size, athleticism, professional wrestling success and legitimate combat-sports backgrounds.
“Myself, Brock Lesnar, Bobby Lashley. Shelton Benjamin, MVP. Nobody can take on us.”
It is a compact answer, but it also speaks to the circles Omos has occupied during his WWE career. Every name he selected has a direct connection to WWE, and three of the four men named alongside him have shared major on-screen history with one another in different eras. More importantly for the premise, Omos chose people whose reputations extend beyond the usual wrestling character traits of toughness and intimidation.

Omos puts himself at the center of a physically imposing group
At the top of the list was Omos himself. The giant has spent the past several years standing out in WWE due to his exceptional size and presence, regularly being presented as one of the company’s most difficult physical obstacles. Whether competing in singles matches or navigating battle royals packed with WWE talent, Omos has been positioned as someone capable of changing the complexion of any contest simply by entering it.
That stature makes him an understandable first pick for the hypothetical team. A Waffle House scrap pack is not a sanctioned match with rules, entrances or a referee. It is a deliberately chaotic scenario, and Omos approached it by assembling a group that would appear overwhelming before the situation even began.
His selections also show that he was not merely choosing the biggest names possible. Lesnar, Lashley, Benjamin and MVP each bring a different type of experience to the group, from amateur wrestling and mixed martial arts to long-term WWE success and strategic leadership.
Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley bring proven combat credentials
Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley were the most immediately obvious additions to Omos’ group because both men have backgrounds that go beyond professional wrestling.
Lesnar’s athletic résumé has long been central to his persona. His mix of amateur wrestling pedigree, WWE accomplishments and mixed martial arts experience has made him one of the most recognizable combat-sports figures ever to transition into pro wrestling. Throughout his WWE career, Lesnar has been framed as an extraordinary physical force, capable of handling multiple opponents and thriving in the kind of high-impact matchups that few performers can replicate.
Omos knows firsthand what it is like to share the ring with Lesnar. The two met in a marquee WWE match, with the presentation focusing heavily on the rare visual of Lesnar facing an opponent whose size rivaled or surpassed virtually anyone else in the company. Omos’ decision to include Lesnar in this lineup reflects the respect attached to that experience as well as Lesnar’s broader reputation.
Lashley is another natural fit. Like Lesnar, Lashley has blended professional wrestling with a mixed martial arts background, while also establishing himself as one of WWE’s premier powerhouse competitors. He and Omos have faced each other in a significant WWE matchup, giving Omos another personal connection to a member of his chosen group.
In the hypothetical setting, Lashley offers a combination of power, explosiveness and combat-sports experience that would complement both Omos and Lesnar. He has consistently been presented as an elite athlete in WWE, and his inclusion means the group would have two former mixed martial artists alongside Omos’ immense size.
Shelton Benjamin adds athletic depth and wrestling pedigree
Shelton Benjamin may be the most revealing pick on Omos’ list. While his name is sometimes omitted from broad mainstream conversations about WWE’s strongest athletes, Benjamin has spent years earning the respect of peers and fans through his physical ability, amateur wrestling background and versatility in the ring.
Benjamin’s athleticism has been a defining part of his career from the beginning. He has competed across multiple WWE eras and has repeatedly shown an ability to adapt to different opponents, styles and roster environments. His technical foundation and explosive movement have made him a valuable presence in any group centered on legitimate athletic credentials.
There is also a shared association between Benjamin, Lashley and MVP that gives Omos’ answer an additional layer. Those names evoke a group dynamic rather than simply four isolated WWE stars chosen for their physical attributes. In a question about selecting people to have at one’s side, familiarity and trust are as important as reputation, and Omos’ list carries that feeling.
Benjamin is not included simply as an extra body. He rounds out the group with a different kind of wrestling-based skill set, one that emphasizes speed, coordination and a lifetime of grappling experience. For a lineup that already includes several larger-than-life powerhouses, that variety strengthens Omos’ case that “nobody can take on us.”
MVP supplies the leadership element
MVP’s inclusion is especially notable because his connection to Omos was one of the most prominent partnerships of the giant’s WWE run. The two were paired together for two years, with MVP serving as Omos’ manager. That on-screen relationship placed MVP in the role of spokesperson, strategist and veteran guide while Omos was presented as the imposing force at his side.
For this hypothetical group, MVP represents more than raw physicality. A scrap pack, at least in Omos’ framing, needs someone who can assess the situation and bring a veteran presence. MVP has built a lengthy career around confidence, intelligence and the ability to command attention, attributes that fit naturally with the role he played alongside Omos.
His selection also makes the answer more personal. Omos could have named another giant or another active powerhouse, but he instead chose the man who helped shape his presentation during a major stretch of his WWE career. That suggests the list is rooted in professional respect and established relationships, not just the idea of assembling the five largest possible men in a locker room.
A roster of former opponents and familiar allies
Omos’ choices underline the unusual path he has taken since becoming a professional wrestler. He has worked across the ring from major WWE names in both singles competition and battle royal environments. Lesnar and Lashley are two of the biggest examples, each representing a high-profile challenge for the towering star.
At the same time, MVP represents a major ally from Omos’ WWE story, while Benjamin adds another respected veteran with ties to that wider WWE orbit. The resulting group is not presented as a formal faction or a tease of any on-screen alliance. It is simply Omos’ answer to a playful hypothetical. Still, it is difficult to ignore how formidable the lineup looks on paper.
Lesnar and Lashley bring mixed martial arts experience. Benjamin brings extensive amateur wrestling credentials and elite athletic ability. MVP contributes veteran savvy and familiarity with Omos. And Omos supplies the massive presence around which the entire group is built.
Omos remains connected to WWE and AAA
The interview arrives as Omos continues to be identified with both WWE and AAA. His career has already featured encounters with some of WWE’s most recognizable stars, and his willingness to name a group full of former colleagues and rivals reinforces how strongly his WWE experiences inform his public persona.
There was no suggestion in his comments that the five men are forming a stable, pursuing a match or planning any real-world confrontation. The Waffle House question is a lighthearted one by design. Omos nevertheless answered it with complete certainty, ending his list with the emphatic declaration that no one could handle the group.
Given the names involved, it is hard to argue with the confidence. Omos’ scrap pack includes an extraordinary collection of size, wrestling ability, combat experience and veteran instincts. In the realm of wrestling hypotheticals, it is a team designed to end the debate before it starts.
