WWE has its fair share of established stars, but you never know when someone new might break into the main event scene. Bobby Lashley has been on a roll over the last few years, and he recently picked up a major win over Brock Lesnar at the Royal Rumble. Lashley is once again the WWE Champion, but it looks like Lashley’s best days in WWE could still be ahead of him.
Booker T recently discussed Bobby Lashley’s future on his Hall of Fame podcast, and he noted that he’s heard that WWE will be building Bobby up to be something special over the next few years.
“I’ve got an inside source that they’re building Bobby Lashley to be something special over these next two to three years, man. I would not sleep on Bobby Lashley and what he is going to be doing here in the future in WWE. So, Brock Lesnar, I am taking nothing away from Brock. But I am saying that I do know Bobby Lashley is being set up to do big things. You can just look at what’s going on and what’s happening around Bobby right now. You can see a huge difference in just the aura of Bobby Lashley right now.”
Bobby Lashley successfully defended the WWE Championship against Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 37 last year, so it will be interesting to see how he’s positioned on the card for WrestleMania 38. Currently Lashley is set to defend his WWE Championship against Brock Lesnar, Seth Rollins, AJ Styles, Austin Theory and Riddle at Elimination Chamber on Saturday, February 19th. Stay tuned for more updates as they become available.
