Booker T: Bobby Lashley vs. Brock Lesnar Would Be ‘One of The Best Big Men Matches We’ve Ever Seen’

Brock Lesnar’s status as a free agent hasn’t stopped fans from contining to dream about a potential showdown between “The Beast Incarnate” and WWE Champion Bobby Lashley.

It’s also important to note that several recent interviews, Lashley has emphasized his goal to face Lesnar. With the return of live fans right around the corner and a major pay-per-view on deck with WWE SummerSlam, it’s easy to connect the dots that would lead to this dream match becoming a reality.

On a recent episode of his Hall of Fame podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Booker T explained why he believes Lashley vs. Lesnar could be a match for the ages.

“It’s definitely a marquee match, it’s definitely a match that is WrestleMania-worthy,” said Booker T. “And the reason I think it would really be good is because Brock Lesnar, as a pro wrestler has come into his own. He knows how to go out and really work like a seasoned veteran, like he’s grizzled. Bobby Lashley has stepped up as far as his psychology, his aggressiveness, just that raw edge that you see when the guy is doing his business.

“So together, I think those two guys, I think that would be one of the best big men matches we’ve ever seen in the business. Just because both of those guys know how to work now at this level.”

Booker T also described how the match would have the rare ability to be genuinely convincing, as both Lesnar and Lashley are legitimate “tough guys” due to their backgrounds as MMA fighers. He then described the complex combination of styles in this potential match and shared his hope that fans won’t have to wait to long before it actually happens.

“As well as, say for instance, they match up from a wrestling perspective,” said Booker T. “Then they match up from a mixed martial arts perspective as well. So the match could have so many different dynamics in it, and all of it will be as close to real as you possibly can feel with two guys like that out there actually doing it because both of them are believable, and both of them are legitimate tough guys, legitimate fighters, so I think the world is waiting on that fight, like a [Manny] Pacquiao/[Floyd] Mayweather. And I’m hoping that we don’t wait too long like we did with Pacquiao and Mayweather.”
