Bobby Lashley has been around a lot of times since he stepped into the WWE again.

He seems like he has been better than ever before and is steamrolling opponent through. This can only be expected.

During his first roll in WWE, he was a two-time ECW World Champion and the United States Champion. He has now come back to establish his dominion.

When asked about the desired match, Lashley named “The Deadman” as a preferred choice. He said that it would be foolish to turn down an opportunity like that. The Undertaker was Lashley’s first choice over rival Brock Lesnar.

“The Phenom” has had troubled time lately, with WWE pushing him into big matches. He doesn’t seem as agile as he used to be and can’t catch up with the pace of the match. He somehow still does it but he can’t risk heading into yet another match now given his heart condition.

The Undertaker revealed his physical problems in his documentary “The Last Ride”.

It may seem unlikely but think about a showdown between Bobby Lashley and The Undertaker. What a spectacle that would be! I’m sure if it happened, “The Deadman” would still give it his best and maybe come out on top. He’s always entertaining to watch no matter what!

Moving on to a more realistic stance, Lashley adds that the Brock Lesnar match seemed talked about since he rejoined WWE. Lashley claims that the fans want the matchup and he intends on giving it to them.

Bobby Lashley left WWE years ago after his first stint ended badly. Caught up in a dead storyline, he had no other choice but to call it quits.

However, now he seems back with a bang. With a new manager, Lashley looks like a different animal altogether. He wants the gold and will stop at nothing to get it.

Looking at Brock Lesnar in the eye and facing him is one of the biggest challenges for any wrestler. Beating him also puts you among the few others to do so. Lesnar is the ultimate challenge on the WWE proving ground.

For Lashley to consider taking on the beast, would mean that he is prepared. He is going to have to fight his way there, however.

Their potential match at Backlash is talked about constantly. There are rumors that the Lashley-McIntyre feud can last well up to Summerslam!
