Bobby Lashley wanted to go full method actor for a storyline he personally pitched to Vince McMahon last year.
Bobby Lashley has had some, let’s say “odd” storylines in the past. With an affair angle with Lana and Rusev along with the infamous Lashley cousins segment, Bobby has had some random angles in the company since his return to the company a few short years ago.
Bobby Lashley recently made an appearance on the NotSam Wrestling podcast.
“I told Vince a year ago, I think a year or two ago, I told him, ‘I want to do this character.’ He said, ‘What is it?’ I said, ‘If I get beat one time, I want to go into the severe depression and put on like 40, 50, 60, or 70 pounds and just be fat, and then be a completely different character and then have like somebody like an MVP, or somebody that’s on my side, kind of like, pull me back and then have the crowd watch his transition back to me.’ He said, ‘There’s no way you can do that.’ I said, ‘Man, I think I can.’”
