A popular WWE Superstar recently talked about working with Bobby Lashley a few years ago. After praising The All Mighty, he wanted him to return to the company so they could run their feud back.
Omos isn't known for many feuds in the Stamford-based promotion, but one of his biggest rivalries was against Lashley. He started as a tag team competitor with AJ Styles, but this was the feud where he had to step out as a singles star. Interestingly, he was managed by MVP at the time, someone who knew everything about the former WWE Champion.
While speaking with NarcolepsyBoy94, The Nigerian Giant briefly mentioned that in 2022, he was pushed by the company to do things on his own two feet, and this began with his feud with Bobby Lashley.
"I remember doing that WrestleMania [in Dallas, 2022] because that was the first time [WWE] was like, ‘Okay, so, you’re on your own now. You don’t have AJ Styles. It’s time to figure it out.’ And it was just me in the ring with Bobby."

He continued and said that he had a lot of respect for the AEW star, as he had helped him throughout the two years they worked together. He hoped that Lashley would eventually return to WWE so they could run it all back.
"I have tremendous respect for Bobby Lashley. Everything he has done for me in my career, because he really helped me a lot! You know this. We worked for like two years. Bobby and I were in a feud. Even after we dominated, me and Bobby were just going after each other almost like, a year and a half, two years – that time I spent with him, I cannot thank him enough. He had a tremendous effect in my career as a performer. I’m glad I was able to have that feud with him. Hopefully, if he comes back, we can run it back. You never know. But, I love Bobby, man. He’s good peoples,” Omos said. [H/T ITRWrestling]
A popular AEW star talked about working with Bobby Lashley in WWE
In 2018, Sami Zayn and Bobby Lashley had a hilarious segment during their feud. Zayn brought in three of Lashley's "sisters" to trash-talk him and ruin his image. One of these who was asked to play the part is now-AEW star Max Caster.
During a recent episode of Hey! Ew, featuring The Acclaimed, Caster was asked if he had spoken to The All Mighty about the segment they worked on together. He revealed that they did not directly acknowledge this, but Lashley may have let it all out during their match earlier this year.
"I wrestled Bobby here at AEW [RJ: Did he acknowledge it or he was not going to?] No, if he acknowledged it in any way, it was through his aggression with which he spinebustered me. I genuinely am still hurt from that match, so when they say they hurt people, it's true."
Bobby Lashley is on an interesting run in AEW, which has seen him become a tag team champion. Now that they have dropped the titles, it remains to be seen whether he'll begin a singles run.
