Bobby Lashley, a powerhouse in WWE, has always craved competition from the best. Recently, he revealed his interest in facing GUNTHER, the current Intercontinental Champion.
Injury Delays Potential Showdown
Lashley expressed his desire to fight GUNTHER in the King of the Ring tournament. He even tried to arrange the match multiple times, directly asking GUNTHER himself. However, GUNTHER reportedly declined.
“I’ve asked for this matchup several times,” Lashley said on WWE’s The Bump. “I even asked him. He didn’t want to. He backed out.”
Unfortunately, the injury forced Lashley to withdraw from the King of the Ring tournament. Angelo Dawkins took his place. Despite this setback, Lashley remains determined to face GUNTHER. Fans are also excited about this potential dream match.
Will Lashley recover in time to challenge GUNTHER for the Intercontinental Championship? Or will we have to wait for another opportunity to see these two titans collide? Only time will tell, but one thing’s for sure: the WWE Universe is eagerly anticipating this colossal clash of brute force.
While GUNTHER’s reason for refusing the match with Lashley remains a mystery, speculation runs wild. Did he fear facing such a dominant opponent? Or perhaps he has other plans for his championship reign.
