Bobby Lashley sat down with Daniel Cormier to discuss Lashley’s upcoming match with Brock Lesnar at the Royal Rumble this Saturday.
Cormier asked Bobby Lashley what we can expect to see in his match against Brock Lesnar at The Royal Rumble:
“It’s one of those fun matchups that people want to see,” Lashley began. “It’s not going to be just a pro wrestling match because we have all these. I think people want to see the wrestling.”
“They want to see us just wrestle and see who gets the most takedowns, and who’s going to get the first takedown. Then they want to see who can fight if this thing breaks down into a fight. Who’s going to win a fight between Brock and I? A lot of people talked about that, and now in pro wrestling, I think we have to give them a little bit of everything in this match, and I think that’s what’s going to happen.”
“It’s not going to just be a tie up and shoulder tackle that two big men would do. Me and Brock have so much more than that.”
He finished with, “I think we might try to fight for that first takedown to see who gets it and then we can go from there. I think there’s a lot of things that we can play with.”
Bobby Lashley has long stated that he has wanted a match with Brock Lesnar, and now Saturday it comes to fruition. The two will face off for the WWE championship this Saturday at WWE’s Royal Rumble.
