Bobby Lashley finishes up with Impact Wrestling at TV tapings
Bobby Lashley finished up with Impact Wrestling last night at their television tapings in Orlando, Florida.
Lashley joined Chris Adonis, Ethan Carter III, and Laurel Van Ness as top names who have left the company this week.
Lashley worked two matches with Brian Cage at the tapings, losing both nights. Cage, who made his debut on Thursday, was also the guy used for EC3 to be laid out by so he’s getting the monster push.
The win opens the door for Lashley to return to WWE, where he was being groomed at one point to be one of the top stars, but left the company over issues that as part of his release, he promised not to talk about publicly.
Lashley would make an interesting opponent for Brock Lesnar.
Impact will be back in Orlando tonight as they close out this round of tapings. Their next pay-per-view will be “Redemption” on April 22nd.
