#5 Who will WWE Champion Bobby Lashley face at WrestleMania 37?
It was reported a few days ago that WWE was planning to have a Last Man Standing match at Fastlane between Drew McIntyre and Sheamus. The two men fought in a hard-hitting battle on RAW this week, which ended in a no-contest.
WrestlingNews.co have now reported that the match between the friends-turned-foes at Fastlane will be the number one contenders' match to decide Lashley's WrestleMania 37 opponent. It was also revealed that it will be The Scottish Warrior Drew McIntyre who will take on The Almighty at WrestleMania this year.
"WrestlingNews.co was told that the Last Man Standing stipulation was decided on Monday morning and it will be announced that the winner of McIntyre vs. Sheamus will challenge Bobby Lashley for the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 37. As of this writing, the plan is for McIntyre to challenge for the title at Mania."
Drew McIntyre lost the WWE Championship at Elimination Chamber. The Miz cashed in his MITB contract soon after McIntyre was brutally assaulted by Lashley at the end of the event.
McIntyre has been occupied with his rivalry with Sheamus over the past few weeks. But it looks like he will finally get a shot to regain the WWE Championship at WrestleMania.
