Alot of people compare him to Brock Lesnar and i was wondering why people are so downn opn lashley but were high on Lesnar whilst he was in the WWE..
The reason i think lesnar got over was he came in as a badass unstopable monster AND had a gr8 mouthpiece in paul heyman.If Lesnar had came in as a face and did his own talking i dont think he would've ever got the championship or even a proper main event push.
imagine if they had him debut as an unstopable heel...jus taking everyone out with dominators..maybe with armando estrada as his manager...and have him debut in ECW to take ona face champion in RVD.
aNYONE ELSE THINK HE'D BE MORE POPULAR IF HE DEBUTED as a heel?

He might've,but Lesnar was so quick and rarely botched moves in the ring, unlike Lashley who sometimes trips over his own feet after a shoulder block, plus he doesn't have a finisher that would really put someone away unlike the F5 of Lesnar.

Maybe if he never talked, but the second he opens his mouth and that voice comes out he's done

Lashley does need a new finisher. I havent seen anyone use the Torture Rack in a good while. How about that?

I don't know. Lashley seems to be like a "calm and gentle" big guy. I think he's alright as a face.
I've said I disliked him because he's boring, because he is boring, but you know what? He's a decent wrestler and I'll have a 90 degree turn and stay neutral for him.

Until he opened his mouth. They should have gave him a manager like Paul Heyman or Armando Alejandro Estrada

No, because then people would really be calling him a Lesnar clone.

Well, take away the fact that Lesnar always sucked (never liked him, this dislike isn't coming from his actions before he left), and the only reason he got over was he had Paul Haymen's big mouth promote him as if he really was something special.
Perhaps one of the reasons people aren't taking to Lashley as quick as they did with Lesnar is because they don't want to be quick to jump the gun and become a fan of someone who is 'hossed-up', after how Lesner treated his spot.
He (Bobby) could used a manager in a heel run, or any run for that matter, but it'd have to be someone who could put the focus on the guy he manages and not himself...*I'm looking at you, Estrada*

Make him an intense, driven heel. The comparisons to Brock or maybe Goldberg will come, but if it gets him over it'll be alright. I like the guy now, but I do acknowledge his flaws.
