Bobby Lashley is one of the most legitimate athletes to have competed in the world of both MMA and pro wrestling. For a long time now Lashley has made it clear he wants to face off against Brock Lesnar in any way possible.
Even fans themselves have wanted nothing more than for the two behemoths to finally square off inside the squared circle. Lashley made it clear on numerous occasions he wants to face the Beast.
At the WWE Day 1 pay-per-view, Brock Lesnar won the WWE Championship after defeating Big E, Seth Rollins, Kevin Owens, and Bobby Lashley. Lashley was the only Superstar who had Lesnar’s number on numerous occasions.
Bobby Lashley then became the #1 contender for Brock Lesnar’s title a couple of weeks ago. He then had a confrontation with Lesnar on last week’s episode of Monday Night RAW, which was well-received by fans.
While speaking on WWE’s After The Bell, Bobby Lashley talked about his promo with Brock Lesnar. Lashley claimed that Lesnar was scared of him during the promo as well.
“Bobby was at Brock’s level a long time ago. I’m at a whole different level right now and I think Brock knows that. So the same way I was saying I looked at Brock’s eyes, Brock saw that I saw that Brock didn’t have a soul, looking in my eyes, he saw that I enjoyed that. And I think that scared him a little bit.”
We will have to wait and see how Bobby Lashley vs Brock Lesnar will turn out to be at the WWE Royal Rumble pay-per-view on January 29th this year.
