Brian Obuchi grew up in Kenya watching John Cena, The Undertaker and The Rock on TV. On Friday 7 November 2026, he was behind the cameras making WWE happen.

The Multimedia University of Kenya alumnus worked as an EVS Replay Operator on the live television production team for WWE Crown Jewel in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia — the first Kenyan to do the job, according to his announcement.

"Today is a very special day for me because I am part of the crew doing WWE wrestling live. I will be here live, the first Kenyan doing WWE live, representing the flag," Obuchi said in a video shared on social media on Saturday 7 November.

As an EVS Replay Operator, Obuchi runs the broadcast technology that picks the angles, delivers instant replays and slow-motion footage during a live production — the shots that make sure viewers never miss the big moments inside the ring.

He shared his involvement on Instagram on Sunday 8 November, and celebrated the headline moment of the night: Roman Reigns emerging victorious at Crown Jewel.

Obuchi built his career in sports broadcasting before WWE, working with SuperSport and on the technical production team behind major international events, including the 2024 Spanish Super Cup clash between Real Madrid and Barcelona.

From watching wrestling as a fan in Kenya to operating replays for a global WWE audience — the MMU graduate has taken Kenyan broadcast talent to the biggest stage in sports entertainment.
