Who’s Targeting Bobby Lashley for a Match Amidst WWE Departure?

Who’s Targeting Bobby Lashley for a Match Amidst WWE Departure?

As a long-time wrestling fan and avid follower of WWE, I can’t help but be intrigued by the latest developments surrounding Bobby Lashley‘s potential departure from the promotion. Having grown up watching legends like Hulk Hogan and The Rock dominate the ring, it’s always exciting to see former champions make their mark in the wrestling world.


Bobby Lashley, who was once the WWE Champion and is now preparing to depart from the promotion, was challenged for a fight. During WWE WrestleMania 40, Lashley and his group, The Pride, achieved a major triumph against The Final Testament. Subsequently, Lashley contended against LA Knight and Santos Escobar in a bout to decide the next title challenger. In the end, it was Knight who emerged victorious.

Following this, Lashley made several backstage showups on WWE broadcasts without participating in matches. In May, it was revealed that Lashley would join the 2024 King of the Ring competition. But right before the qualifiers, he was unexpectedly removed from the event. WWE SmackDown manager Nick Aldis disclosed that Lashley couldn’t compete for unknown reasons.

With Bobby Lashley sidelined due to injury, there have been whispers that he will leave WWE when his contract comes to an end. A few days ago, these rumors gained traction. It’s been suggested that Lashley could be signing with AEW after his departure from WWE. MVP, another notable figure, is also believed to be parting ways with the promotion and may join Lashley in AEW. This has led to widespread speculation of a The Hurt Business reunion in the rival promotion.

Matt Cardona, formerly known as Zack Ryder in WWE, has challenged Lashley as the latter is set to leave the organization.

I, Matt Cardona, found myself unexpectedly leaving WWE in 2020 due to budget cuts. However, this setback didn’t stop me. I’ve been making waves in the independent wrestling scene, most notably in GCW. Now, I’m calling out a familiar face: Bobby Lashley, former WWE Champion.

With WWE still employing him, it’s said that Bhama Carpenter-Lashley’s contract is due to end in the near future. Additionally, Matt Cardona’s proposition brings an extra dose of intrigue to the situation. It’s unclear if Lashley will respond favorably and possibly join the independent circuit instead. Keep an eye out for further developments.
