Biography:
“The All Mighty” describes Bobby Lashley to a tee. In only his sixth AEW match, Lashley already had captured his first AEW championship when winning the world tag team titles with Hurt Syndicate stablemate Shelton Benjamin. Guided by MVP, The Hurt Syndicate shows every earmark of dominance that Lashley has exhibited throughout his sporting life.
After winning three NAIA wrestling championships while attending Missouri Valley College, Lashley continued competing in the U.S. Army & was drawing consideration for the 2004 U.S. Olympic team before suffering a knee injury.
Lashley then transitioned seamlessly to pro wrestling – he is an eight-time world champion -- and mixed martial arts. Lashley compiled a 15-2 MMA record with six knockouts & six submissions.
Lashley has parlayed such success into appearances on Deal or No Deal, Celebrity Family Feud and an episode of the CBS comedy-drama Rush Hour. Lashley also was hand-picked by future United States President Donald Trump to represent him in a highly-publicized 2007 match.
