The wedding officiant who presided over Lana and Bobby Lashley’s wedding last week on RAW was back this week as well. Since Rusev interrupted Lana and Lashley’s nuptials last week, the officiant was back to quickly pronounce them man and wife this week. Evidently, nobody informed the security of this.
In between segments, as the officiant entered the ring for the segment security mistook him for an invading fan and tackled him in the ring.
Fans captured the incident and have been posting it online.
Bobby Lashley and Lana’s Wedding
Both Lana and Bobby Lashley have spoken out publicly about the angle.
“Don’t assume someone’s sexuality,” Lana wrote on Twitter. “Just because they are not outspoken in the LGTBQ community doesn’t mean that they’re not pansexual, bisexual, gay, transgender or trying to process their sexuality,” she began. “Even if they are married. For many it’s complicated. Please have compassion.”
Lashley spoke with Sports Illustrated about the angle.
“Yes, I’ve experienced a tremendous amount of hate. We as a society come out and we’re anti-bullying, anti-hate, anti-this, anti-that. I think we actually pick and choose who we hate and bully,” Lashley said in the interview.
