#4 WWE blockbuster match: Bobby Lashley vs. Brock Lesnar

Bobby Lashley has made no secret of his desire to face Brock Lesnar. The two men were on the same WWE roster from 2018 to 2020 but their paths did not cross.

Right now, Lesnar is reportedly a free agent after his contract talks with WWE hit an impasse in 2020. Lashley, meanwhile, is arguably enjoying the most successful run he has had since he returned to WWE in 2018.

Speaking on Corey Graves’ After The Bell podcast in 2020, the United States Champion discussed a possible match against Lesnar. He even revealed that he would want to hit The Beast with a Shooting Star Press if they ever face each other.

“I would definitely hit that on him. And I'll even get to the top rope. But that's something that's needed to happen, either I went for it and he stood up and caught me, or he took it and kicked out of it, or I hit him and pinned him, because that match is that big that it would need a big punch.” [H/T SK Wrestling’s Nishant Jayaram]

Lesnar famously attempted to hit a Shooting Star Press on Kurt Angle in the main event of WrestleMania XIX. The former UFC star misjudged the distance and landed awkwardly on his head, causing him to suffer a concussion.
