Despite the fact that Lio Rush is clearly just playing the role of Bobby Lashley's hype-man whilst competing on 205 Live as a singles competitor, there is so much potential in Lashley and Rush being used as a tag team. Lashley is currently embroiled in a rivalry with Rollins, but it's clearly a feud that is being used to make Rollins look stronger to build up to a major Wrestlemania match for The Kingslayer.

However, when the Rollins/Lashley rivalry is finished, Lashley and Rush would make great contenders to face Gable and Roode, and potentially be the ones to take the Raw Tag Team titles away from them. Rush was the main reason why Lashley had turned heel on the October 8th, 2018 episode of Raw as he had ordered Lashley to brutally attack Kevin Owens following their match.

Having Rush by Lashley's side is great, as Rush plays the role of the sneaky mouthpiece to cover up Lashley's weak mic skills. On the other hand, Lashley playing the aggressor of a potential tag team would be perfect. Both men complement each other's skills very well, and Rush knows how to rile the fans up to gain negative reactions allowing Lashley to let his actions do the talking.

A title win against Gable and Roode would allow Lashley and Rush to gain their first tag team titles in their WWE careers. It would immediately boost their statuses in the WWE, and it would give them an accomplishment that is needed to maintain their credibility. They would be fantastic foils for Gable and Roode with the possibility of the two teams having good matches.
