Bobby Lashley Says He’ll Fight Brock Lesnar In The Ring, The Cage Or The Street

Bobby Lashley is the current TNA World Heavyweight Champion, but Lashley is a versatile performer, and over the past few years he’s branched out into the MMA world. Stars who can go back and forth between wrestling and MMA are few and far between, and as we saw when CM Punk entered the octagon in 2016, it doesn’t always work well when performers try to crossover.

One star who has managed to crossover in a big way is none other than Brock Lesnar. Brock is one of the biggest names in MMA and professional wrestling, and Bobby Lashley recently told Sports Illustrated that he wants to fight Brock Lesnar and he doesn’t care where the fight foes down.

“I want that fight with Brock Lesnar,” said Lashley. “I don’t care if it’s the ring, the cage, or in a street fight. Brock is at one of the highest points in the business, so high that they’re trying to bring him down to make other stars. Brock brings legitimacy to the business, and he has Paul Heyman with him to do everything else he can’t do. I’m completely up for that fight.”

Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley both found fame thanks to their time with WWE, but Lashley is current a TNA star. When asked about a possible return to the company that made him famous, Lashley noted that he would be open to returning under the right circumstances, however, he’s happy where he is right now.

“I’m really happy where I am,” said Lashley. “I’ve never been a politics guy in wrestling, I’m just someone who came out and worked. I’m a product of amateur wrestling, and there is no one there to help you with matches or win matches—you have to do it yourself. I love wrestling, and of course WWE is the main stage, but I’m happy to be with TNA. If the right scenario ever came up to return, then it’s a possibility, but I am extremely happy where I am right now.”

While a Bobby Lashley vs. Brock Lesnar fight would certainly get people talking, it doesn’t look like it’s going to happen anytime soon.
