First and foremost, it's important to point out that Bobby Lashley was probably only having some fun here.

The new WWE Champ told the 'Kinda' Fun Sports' podcast that he knows who's behind some of the more negative 'online Twitter bot' accounts on social media - that's when Lashley launched into a rant about how some behind the scenes are actively seeking sneaky ways to try and take his spot on the roster.

Basically, he's pointing the finger of blame at his peers.

Not only is that top notch heel banter, it's also newsworthy stuff. Bobby knows exactly what he's doing here, and he went on to say that pro wrestling is "a cutthroat business".

There is also some truth hiding behind the heel pomp though.

Lashley has previously called out several behind the scenes for "bitching and complaining" about their positioning in WWE. He doesn't like that, because Bob values hard work and dedication over backstage whinging.

The reigning champion is "100% sure" that some members of the WWE locker room would stoop so low as to create fake social media accounts so they could snipe at him.
