Bobby Lashley is still set to make his debut in All Elite Wrestling, despite fans expecting to see him during AEW WrestleDream. When Lashley didnt appear during Swerve Stricklands segment, many began to question whether The All Mighty had actually signed with AEW.
However, rest assured, Lashley has indeed signed on the dotted line and is confirmed to be joining AEW. According to sources via Fightful Select, there were early discussions about having Lashley debut at WrestleDream, but plans changed. It was noted that having Lashley make an appearance, particularly if it involved attacking Swerve Strickland in his hometown, might not have worked given how the event concluded.
Earlier reports indicated that that Lashleys debut was postponed to make sure it stands out. AEW felt there were already enough big storylines and significant angles at WrestleDream, and they didnt want Lashleys arrival to get lost in the shuffle.
As things stand, Lashleys AEW debut is expected to happen in the coming weeks, where he will likely align with The Hurt Syndicate, led by MVP and featuring Shelton Benjamin. This reunion of the powerhouse trio is sure to make waves in AEW, reminiscent of their dominant days in WWE.
While Lashley didnt show up at WrestleDream, insiders suggest that his debut is still on the horizon and fans can expect a major impact when he finally steps into the AEW ring.
