6 Wrestlers Bellator MMA Should Sign To Face Lashley

3. Goldberg

Before you discount him due to his age, consider that Bellator recently booked 51 year old Ken Shamrock for a headlining fight this summer. And GLORY apparently offered him a fight against Alberto del Rio that he turned down because it would send "the wrong message." However, as much as fighting another pro wrestler rubbed Goldberg the wrong way, for the right money, you'd have to imagine that he'd be interested. Goldberg has trained in striking for years, something that flew under the radar for quite some time. He has said he's more interested in pursuing a bout in kickboxing than MMA, due to not having a lot of experience with the ground game, but a fight with Lashley as a one-off could be a bucket-list item, and the fans would love seeing the two hulking wrestlers square off.
