Shelton Benjamin says Bobby Lashley potentially coming to AEW would be a win for the company.
Bobby Lashley has often been linked to AEW since he left WWE. The buzz has only heated up since MVP and Shelton Benjamin have come to AEW.
Speaking on Gabby AF with Gabby LaSpisa, Shelton Benjamin was asked about Bobby Lashley potentially coming to AEW.
“Well one, I think if Bobby were to come, I think Bobby would…obviously most people were fans of the Hurt Business,” Benjamin said. “Myself, MVP, Bobby, and Cedric, and the prospect of Bobby coming to AEW, I think that’s huge. I think it’s a win for AEW because you have, aside from myself, you have one of the most phenomenal athletes you could ever get. He’s a two-time WWE World Champion.
“I think it only brings a bigger audience to AEW, so it’s a plus. When that will happen, I’m not sure. Bobby has his own plans, and when and if they coincide with ours is yet to be determined. But I think him coming to AEW can only help everybody involved. It’ll be fun. It’ll be a lot of fun.
