Bobby Lashley Responds to Paul Heyman's Facebook Rant

I never ducked @BrockLesnar in college. I never had the chance to meet him earlier in @WWE. Never was in same #MMA organization. Now we're both here again in #WWE. I'm ready. Let's do it. I'd LOVE to fight Brock. Take that any way you want!

Paul Heyman believes that Brock Lesnar does not have competition. Bobby Lashley took exception to that on Twitter. He is scheduled for a multi-man match to determine the number one contender. A match between Lesnar and Lashley could draw huge numbers, but the next few weeks must be spent making Lashley look like a true monster. He cannot be the same guy that comes out smiling with a headband.

Things got heated between Sasha Banks and Bayley after they lost to the Riott Squad on Monday. This would lead to the two fighting backstage. Finally! I understand the slow built here though. I said on last week's episode of Break it Down With Brian H,  that there are multiple reasons this match did not happen at WrestleMania including it getting lost in the shuffle. ''

Velveteen Dream Silences Hulk Hogan

At NXT Takeover Chicago, Velveteen Dream wore the signature colors of Hulk Hogan, red and yellow and that triggered an idea from the Hulkster. He suggested becoming Dream's manager. The Dream was not having it though. Of course, #BlackTwitter enjoyed this one, considering Hogan's words a few years ago.
