According to an announcement made during the latest episode of “WWE SmackDown,” it appears that the highly-anticipated match between Bobby Lashley and Bray Wyatt at WrestleMania 39 may not be happening after all. The announcement revealed that the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal will be returning, with wrestlers like Johnny Gargano, Bronson Reed, Karl Anderson, Luke Gallows, and Bobby Lashley all being promoted for the match.
The connection between Wyatt and Lashley dates back to last month, when Wyatt demanded to face the winner of the Brock Lesnar and Lashley match at the Elimination Chamber premium live event. Despite Lesnar ultimately getting himself disqualified, Wyatt proceeded to taunt Lashley for the following weeks, until both he and Uncle Howdy disappeared from WWE programming. Recent reports suggest that Wyatt has been absent due to an illness, which Lashley has seemingly taken as a sign to move on from their proposed match.
Taking to Twitter to express his readiness for the biggest stage of them all, Lashley has made it clear that he is prepared to fight whoever is in the ring with him at WrestleMania 39, and will unleash the “wrath of the All-Mighty” on his opponent. With Lashley now confirmed for the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal, it appears that the long-awaited match between him and Wyatt may have to wait for another day.
