6 Ups And 5 Downs From WWE Raw (March 6)

4. Not A Man’s World

With each passing week, it’s becoming readily apparent that anything that gets sucked into the Wyatt Cinematic Universe is not going to come out stronger. So light a candle for Bobby Lashley.

After the embarrassing display on SmackDown that saw Lashley tangle with – and spinebuster – Uncle Howdy, Bobby cut a backstage promo where he sounded like he was embarrassed to be part of this feud, saying he was tired of playing kids’ games, saying Bray Wyatt is not a man for sending a guy in a mask to answer his challenge. He repeatedly said Bray wasn’t man enough to face him, all while Wyatt’s logo displayed on the screen behind him.

So you have Lashley trying to rise above the spooky !*$% and just call Wyatt out like a typical feud, and Bray is relying on Uncle Howdy and parlor tricks. Yep, sounds like a winner of a rivalry.

Maybe Lashley can have a summit with Huskus and Ramblin’ Rabbit next.
