5 Reasons why Bobby Lashley shouldn't challenge for the WWE Championship

#2 No depth in Bobby Lashley's character

Bobby Lashley deserves a run that puts him forward as a formidable contender for the WWE Championship. He was closing in on that spot when he had Lio Rush on his side. Rush made Bobby Lashley interesting outside the ring. Lashley's promos weren't the best and WWE took note of that and put Lio Rush on his side.

With Rush on his side, Lashley got more time in front of the WWE fans and captured the WWE Intercontinental Championship twice. After Rush was removed from Lashley's corner, The All-Mighty hasn't done much that is worth of note.

WWE included him in a feud with Rusev that turned Lana and Rusev's marriage into a love triangle. None of the WWE fans were sold on this angle. But WWE rolled with it for over two months.

Now, finally, that Lashley has MVP on his side, it may be a good time to build Lashley's character from scratch and make him relevant in the eyes of the fans. WWE must build Lashley as a monster who would be a legitimate threat to Drew McIntyre's WWE Championship reign.
