Bobby Lashley is all set to face Drew McIntyre for the WWE Championship at Backlash. The All Mighty will finally get a chance to win the big belt in WWE. While it is being believed that Drew McIntyre will most likely retain at the show, there is a chance that Lashley might pull an upset.

The Observer reported that the reason why MVP was added as a manager for Lashley was that Paul Heyman wanted a mouthpiece for Bobby Lashley for a title run. Now, while this may not necessarily mean that Lashley will defeat McIntyre at Backlash, there is a strong chance that we will see The Almighty as the WWE Champion soon.
