Former WWE Champion Planning To Retire With AEW

You never know when you might see a big debut when you watch AEW programming, and Bobby Lashley made his first appearance for the company back in October. Since then Bobby Lashley and The Hurt Syndicate have been featured as one of the top acts in AEW.

It’s safe to say that Lashley will likely be featured in a prominent spot on the All In: Texas card next year and he was on hand to promote the event at Globe Life Field on Monday.

During the AEW All In: Texas Countdown to On Sale even the former WWE Champion spoke to Denise Salcedo of Instinct Culture about what he’s looking to do as a member of the AEW roster, and he stated that he wants to end his career with the company.

“I want to go out with a bang. Everybody says that they want to end their career in a certain way, and that’s what I want to do, I want to end my career here in AEW, but one thing I want to be able to do is I want to be able to blow and show the Hurt Syndicate, what we are able to do when we get that opportunity.

“But then again, what I want to do is I wanna be able to help out some of these guys here. When I had an opportunity to come and meet some of the guys at AEW, there are some amazing talent wrestlers out there, so what I want to do is I want to have some storylines with some of those guys, I want to wrestle some matches that people didn’t really think of when I moved over, I want to do some of those matches that are like ‘I didn’t know that I really needed that match, but I love the fact that I got it’, so that’s what I want.

“I want to be able to do some big things for AEW, promote the brand, give back to Tony, give back to a lot of the wrestlers, because when I first started in wrestling there was a lot people that helped mold my career, build my career, and I want to be able to give that back to some of these younger guys.”
