Bobby Lashley has a big goal in mind.
At WrestleMania 40, Bobby Lashley, alongside the Street Profits and some help from an ECW legend was able to put a stop to the carnage that The Final Testament has brought to them in the WWE for the last couple of weeks.
During a WWE digital exclusive, this is what Lashley had to say about competing at next year’s event.
“I feel great. I’m just proving my resilience. I thought my ass off to get to the top, got knocked off, and I’m fighting my way back up to the top. I’ve always had to work my ass off my entire life. As a kid, I put myself in very big positions all the way across the board. From winning Nationals… From coming here to the largest professional wrestling organization, scraping, clawing, and doing whatever I had to do to make it to the top. I got there and won the WWE Championship,” he said. “The cars got shuffled, I got dropped back down to the point of not making it to WrestleMania which was one of the biggest blows to me, that I’ve ever had in my professional wrestling career, in my athletic career. But now, I am back a year later. I am scraping and clawing and made it back onto the big show. But I feel like there’s so much more that I have to accomplish. I know where I need to be and I know how to get there, from hard work.
“I’m never one to go against hard work. I’ve worked hard my entire life,” he continued. “27 years in the wrestling business and I’m still working as hard as I did on day one. So I know what I’m capable of doing. I know where I want to go. I know I can’t get back there. WrestleMania 41, I am going to be main eventing, that’s the goal. That’s what I’m going to be working towards.”
Lashley missed out on WrestleMania 39, but insists that 41 will not be a year that he misses because he will be in the main event against whoever the world champion from either brand will be.
