Brock Lesnar is certainly one of the most decorated pro wrestlers in the history of the industry. He has done pretty much one would want to accomplish in WWE and then some. It is rare for him to respect others and that was the same case for his rivalry with Bobby Lashley, until recently.
Bobby Lashley was absolutely furious after Brock Lesnar returned and cost him the United States Championship match against Seth Rollins last month. This led to the two having a confrontation on the next episode of the show, where Lashley stood tall.
The two then had yet another brawl. Prior to all this, they also face each other at the Royal Rumble event. While speaking on Corey Graves’ After The Bell podcast, Paul Heyman revealed that Brock Lesnar didn’t take Bobby Lashley seriously until recently.
“It seems to be someone that may have Brock Lesnar’s number. This is an interesting, interesting, interesting scenario. Brock Lesnar has never thought much of Bobby Lashley. Knowing Brock Lesnar for as long as I do, I would presume Brock Lesnar right now is impressed with Bobby Lashley and knows that he has a fight on his hands.”
Brock Lesnar is set to face off against Bobby Lashley at WWE Crown Jewel on November 5th. We will have to wait and see whether Lesnar will be able to beat Lashley or not.
