Monday's Raw was the best Bobby Lashley has been booked since returning to WWE last year.

The announcers used words like "superhuman", "freak of nature" and wowed at the fact he was there after last week's stage stunt. Renee Young also pointed out that Braun Strowman was incapable of wrestling, making it more impressive that Bobby was willing to go against comeback king Rey Mysterio when he wasn't even 100% himself.

As if that wasn't enough, Lashley shook off some early Rey offence, won and then cruelly tortured him post-match. The is how "Bob" should've been booked from the beginning.
