#5 Update on a possible match between RAW Superstar Bobby Lashley and Brock Lesnar
Ever since Bobby Lashley won the WWE Championship at RAW last week, fans have been anticipating a clash between Lashley and Brock Lesnar. The Beast Incarnate has been absent from WWE since WrestleMania 36 where he lost the WWE Championship to Drew McIntyre.
WWE Champion and RAW Superstar Bobby Lashley recently spoke to The Wrap to talk about a match against Brock Lesnar in the future. The CEO of The Hurt Business said that he doesn't speak to Brock Lesnar one-on-one, but that a close associate of Lesnar has told him it is not the right time.
"I know I spoke with somebody that was really close to him and they just said, no, it’s just not the time. The only one I can really ask in that manner is (Paul) Heyman, because no one else really talks to Brock, that I know of, I don’t talk to Brock, I really don’t even know Brock that much.''
Not only are both Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley massive powerhouses, but the two also share a history of professional MMA fighting. Booked correctly, Lashley vs Lesnar could be a big-money match for WWE in the future.
