McIntyre has beaten both Lashley and Lesnar in 2020, but the current US Champion feels he has unfinished business with Drew. Lashley has been calling Brock Lesnar out for quite a while, but the Beast has not responded to his challenges.

“I want that fight, I want that title. Drew is old-school. He fits into any era. He’s tough, he’s real. We have a lot of unfinished business. Adding Brock always adds a lot. He’s as real as it gets, and he’s someone I want in the ring. So I’m open to that, but me and Drew can do it on our own, too. There are a lot of options, which is great for everyone.”

Brock and Bobby have a common MMA background. Both men are enormous, burly men who can toss opponents halfway across the ring, and a match between the two would be a titanic clash.

“I’ve never talked to Brock, I don’t even know Brock really well,” said Lashley. “So, it’s usually through his advocate or someone else that you can even get any kind of dialogue. So, I’m not the one to ask that question. It’s those other guys, ’cause I’m ready.'”

Bobby Lashley is a domineering presence on Monday Night Raw. Amongst the poor wrestling and terrible storylines that have plagued Raw since the Brand Split, Lashley has been a breath of fresh air.

The United States Championship looks magnificent around the waist of the Almighty, but we all know he’s destined for bigger things. He challenged for the WWE Championship at Backlash 2020 but lost to McIntyre.

Bobby is way too good to be a mid-card champion. If WWE wants to put the belt on a top heel, Bobby Lashley can be the number one choice. He is Goliath to the many Davids on Raw, and the sooner WWE realise this potential, the better.
