10 Superstars Who Could Take WWE Title Off Brock Lesnar
10. Bobby Lashley
Two Intercontinental Title reigns can’t disguise how badly WWE have mishandled Bobby Lashley since his 2018 return. Wrestling the slow, WWE big-man style has left ‘The Almighty’ a much less exciting performer than he was in TNA, and the “Bobby’s sisters” segment was one of the worst in bits of TV in years. Not just WWE TV or even wrestling TV. We’re talking one of the worst things to be broadcast under the guise of televisual entertainment.
His best spell came with a manager, Lio Rush, who was removed from TV before a teased split storyline could pay off. The guy can’t catch a break.
What Lashley does have in his favour is a very impressive MMA record. It’s surprising WWE don’t steer into this more. They’re not above leaning on MMA credentials to lend credibility to other roster members. Lashley has made no secret of his desire to face Brock in the ring, telling TV Insider, “It would be the biggest thing on TV.”
Handled correctly, his MMA career could help make him a legitimate title threat.
