#1 A very different build for Lashley

Bobby Lashley's past year would have to have to have looked differently to set up a match with Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania.

One of the problems with thinking through the hypothetical scenario of Brock Lesnar vs. Bobby Lashley being a featured match at WrestleMania 35 is that it’s so hard to picture it coming together based on what we’ve seen over the last ten months in WWE.

That’s partly true for Lesnar, who has done his best work opposite much smaller wrestlers—a mold someone like Seth Rollins fits much better than Lashley.

There’s also the matter of Lashley’s booking.

Though moments like his win over Roman Reigns at Extreme Rules keep Lashley in the main event conversation, he subsequently dropped into the mid-card.

While his heel turn freshened his character, it didn’t make him feel like any more of a headliner.

In the absence of a fluke rash of injuries taking out the top five to ten prospective challengers to the Beast Incarnate, the only way for Lashley vs. Lesnar to make sense for WrestleMania would be if Lashley had been built differently for months.

That would include WWE totally getting behind him as the guy, and more than likely with a continued face push.
