Bobby Lashley
Back in 2005-06, Bobby Lashley was a huge name on WWE SmackDown, and fans were in absolute awe of his babyface character. Lashley competed in the Money In The Bank Ladder match at WrestleMania 22, but didn't win the briefcase. Later that year, Lashley teamed up with Batista and John Cena against the villainous trio of King Booker, Finlay, and William Regal. It would be almost a year before he got a WWE title shot against Cena.

At Night of Champions 2007, John Cena defeated Lashley, Mick Foley, King Booker, and Randy Orton to retain his belt. At The Great American Bash 2007, Cena faced Lashley in a WWE title match. The WWE Universe was behind Lashley on this night, but John Cena retained his belt again.
Lashley would leave WWE soon after, and this is all we got in terms of a rivalry between him and John Cena. Upon Lashley's return more than a decade later, he teamed up with John Cena on a few occasions, but the duo never faced off against each other in a singles bout.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
