Bobby Lashley will need to take time off if one report holds true.
Lashley entered WWE Elimination Chamber as the WWE Champion. He did not leave Saudi Arabia as the titleholder, however, as Brock Lesnar outlasted the opposition.
During the match, WWE ran an injury angle with Lashley. Some speculated it was done to protect Lashley and have him face Lesnar on night one of WrestleMania. It looks like that isn’t the case.
Former WWE writer Kazeem Famuyide revealed on The Ringer Wrestling Show that Bobby Lashley has been legitimately hurt since Royal Rumble.
According to Famuyide, Lashley suffered the injury during his WWE Title match with Brock Lesnar last month. We haven’t seen him wrestle on WWE Raw since then, which should have been a sign something was up.
Lashley will most likely require shoulder surgery, which would keep him out of action for around four months. The timing of the injury is less than ideal since we are on the road to WrestleMania.
There has already been speculation running rampant on how Lashley suffered the shoulder injury. Some are pointing to “The Destroyer” landing awkwardly on his shoulder off a German suplex from Brock Lesnar during their title match back in January.
