WWE News: Bobby Lashley recalls meeting Brock Lesnar for the first time

WWE Superstar Bobby Lashley recently spoke with Spandex while he was in Las Vegas for a WWE 2K20 press event. Among other things, Lashley recalled meeting with Brock Lesnar a couple of times in the past, and added that he wants a match with Lesnar before he turns 50.

A dream match

Bobby Lashley returned to WWE last year, after WrestleMania 34. Immediately, fans began speculating on a potential Lesnar vs Lashley match, and many believed that WWE would finally give them at least a short-lived program between the two former MMA fighters.

Back during Lashley's first run in WWE, he won the ECW Championship, and was a part of the biggest match on the WrestleMania 23 card: The Battle of the Billionaires. At that point in time, Lesnar had been out of WWE for around 3 years. Lashley and Lesnar both went on to compete in MMA.

This match has now become a dream bout that a better part of the WWE Universe wants to witness. Lashley himself wants it to happen and was recently seen teasing a kickoff to the feud on his official Twitter account.

Lashley on meeting Lesnar for the first time

While speaking with Spandex, Lashley revealed that he has met Lesnar a couple of times. Lashley and Lesnar met for the first time at a Saudi show. Lashley greeted The Beast and that was it. The two didn't interact much, and Lashley believes that a match between the two Superstars would be money.

I met him in passing a couple of times. Saudi was the first time I met him. Literally 'Hey, what's up?' Boom, boom and that was about it. Never said more than two words to him, so I think there's a little mystique there and also for me. Just being in the fighting world, man, I've trained and fought with some of the people that he's fought with and man, it's got to happen. It's got to happen before I hit 50.
