Bobby Lashley says Brock Lesnar will have to work his way up for a WWE title shot

Bobby Lashley says Brock Lesnar will have to work his way up for a WWE title shot. The former WWE and UFC Champion hasn’t wrestled since Wrestlemania 36.

Brock Lesnar has been working a part time schedule in the WWE for the last few years. That however, hasn’t stopped him from constantly being in the World title picture. He has regularly held the Universal and WWE Championship.

He is no longer contracted with the WWE. It is more than likely that he will one day return to the promotion. Although, Bobby Lashley believes that this time, the Beast Incarnate will have to work his way up if he does make a comeback.

During an interview with ViBe and Wrestling, the CEO of Hurt Business, pointed out that the WWE locker room was filled with men hungry for a shot at the WWE Championship and Brock Lesnar would have to wait his turn in the line.

“If Brock wants to be back in the picture, Brock is gonna have to work his way back up to the title shot as there is a lot of people waiting at the front door. Myself, Braun, The Miz and several other people that want to have their shot at the title so he is not the man. Of course, that fight, everybody would love to have sometime in my career just because of the similarities between Brock and I, but at the end of the day, if Brock comes back, I welcome that challenge but is up to him. If it doesn’t, Drew is the man”.

Lashley helped Miz cash in his Money in the Bank contract on Drew McIntyre. However, he still thinks that the Scottish Psychopath is the man and has every right to be upset.

“Drew beat Brock, so of course he is a little bit upset but at the end of the day in order to be the champion you got to beat the man. It is like everybody always says, and was quoted by Ric Flair, “To be the man you got to beat the man” and Drew is the man. I mean, I helped The Miz beat Drew but else out of that, Drew has been the man. So I think all the focus should be on Drew.”

Bobby Lashley is scheduled to face the Miz next week for the WWE Championship. He beat Braun Strowman on the latest episode of RAW to earn that opportunity. It has been speculated that Lashley will eventually triumph on the Miz (Next Week on RAW or Fastlane) and will carry the title until at least Wrestlemania.

Each bruise a story to tell, each wound a song of struggle, his greatest desire is to be there to witness it all. His favorite wrestler is Shawn Michaels and he believes that GSP is the greatest to ever step foot inside the octagon. Apart from wrestling, he is also fond of poetry and music.
