Bobby Lashley states 'now is a really good time' for him to go up against Brock Lesnar

Being a former UFC heavyweight champion has brought a lot of attention for Brock Lesnar. The Beast Incarnate faced UFC greats like Frank Mir, Cain Velasquez and others in the octagon during his MMA stint. The only other wrestler in WWE with similar credentials as Lesnar is Bobby Lashley. Just like his WWE colleague, The All-Mighty has also proved himself in the world of MMA. Although he never worked in UFC, Lashley fought in various MMA promotions including the likes of Bellator. Throughout his MMA career, Bobby Lashley won 15 fights and faced a mere two defeats.

Despite having impressive records, Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley have never faced each other in the WWE ring. Fans have been asking WWE to schedule Brock Lesnar vs Bobby Lashley for years, but the promotion is yet to set a match between the two. In 2018, WWE fans came close to seeing the two behemoths collide, but WWE included Roman Reigns in the feud and Brock Lesnar ended up fighting Reigns at WWE SummerSlam that year.
