During a recent interview with Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated, WWE Champion Bobby Lashley commented on his big win over Brock Lesnar at the 2022 WWE Royal Rumble pay-per-view event, what it means to him, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On his quest to become WWE Champion after WrestleMania 35: “After the match with Finn, I knew there was so much more in front of me. I was going to scrape and crawl if I needed to because I was going to be WWE champion.”
On what the match with Lesnar meant to him: “This was so much deeper than a match. My kids were in the front row, and I wanted to teach them a lesson about enduring. That’s something we talk about a lot. It’s the person who endures that wins. The match was a lot like life. I couldn’t escape Brock’s offense. He’s going to take you to Suplex City, he’s going to hit hard. That’s no different than life. I wanted to test myself and take his punches. I wanted to face him head on, take his best, and beat him in the end.”
