I know many AEW fans like lashley but they don't know how to book big guys, IE. Miro, Wardlow etc best bet be free agent sign one match deals Id like to see him v Josh Barnett if I'm honest. Or have another go at MMA .Guys a beast, you know what be great just as a one off Lashley v Lesnar in the octagon . That's money all over it.

Good luck in future endeavours Lashley . He's still in great condition and would be a great add to any roster.

I don't really care for Lashley. Didn't see what a lot of others saw in him, always thought he was kinda bland and dull, more hype than he was worth. But, honestly, in saying that - I still feel like the past two years at least, WWE have had absolutely no idea what to do with him. Too big to middle in the midcard, yet they don't want to throw him against Bloodline/Cody/etc, so he just floated in this... Void of nothing of substance. It's weird.

Like, I don't even rate the guy high, he's like a tax report to me, but even I think that they're been so halfhearted and unsure with pushing him or not that the past few years have been... Bonkers, really.

But he will do good at TNA or Bloodsport as let's face it AEW won't take him.

think it is fair to say Vince saw a lot more in Lashley than Hunter does

If he did a show by show deal with TNA and Bloodsport plus Mexico . Reckon he might make a nice chunk of change.

AEW would snap him up and they probably should, don't see why he would need to fuck around with TNA and the rest

He make more money in AEW, so if that’s all he cares about, go there. If he wants to be used better, go to TNA. I love AEW but the way the roster is right now, I’m not sure how well he be used. So just depends on what he truly wants.
