If Lashley turns heel upon his return...

[joeman]

Lets say Creative decided to turn Lashley heel when he comes back. What would his motivations be aside from winning the World title? Also, would he be feuding with DX and Jeff Hardy? And lets say if he is feuding with DX, how would the angle start and what buildup would you guys predict happen?

[AriadosMan]

His motivation for winning the world title will be that the fans are a bunch of BATHTURDS!

[BorneAgain]

If Lashley turns heel, get Teddy Long as his manager so he doesn't ever have to talk again.

[Limey]

It should go a little something like this...

Ah-Shawn Michaels is being beaten up badly by Orton or something. Lashley's music hits...and he just stands there.

Afterwards, he is interviewed by Maria.

"Bobby? Shawn Michaels was beaten to within an inch of his life out there and you did nothing! Don't you care??"

And he responds with;


"NO!!!"

There's your answer.

[AriadosMan]

Tomko's No>>>>>>>>Lashley's No

But Bathturd rules

[MysteryPartner]

then he will be an evil bathturd

[joeman]

I wonder what kind of backstage and in-ring skits DX would do to Lashley.

[Deleted]

Put him in a cool leather jacket/ trench, have him become the unstoppable bodyguard for a chicken heel, and let money/ the pleasure he gets from laying people out be his motivation.

Unfortunately, YouTubers have hit the bullseye so to speak before DX in this case. Whatever they'd do would probably look like a YouTube ripoff.

He could come out and get cheap heat by wearing a mankini and calling himself Booby Lashley. He could come out and cut a promo saying how he grew up idolizing wrestlers and how Shawn Michaels was always a top performer. He could finish by saying "I want Shawn at the Rumble."

Then when the match is scheduled to begin at the rumble, Booby is laying in the ring ala Jabba in Deuce Bigelow. Shawn comes out expecting a match and Booby said "I just said I wanted you. I'd love to wrestle you but I never said it would be a 'wrestling match' boy toy."

[Squirrel Master]

Lashley should be a masked man who runs into matches in progress, decimates everyone and leaves as mysteriously as he arrives.

Think all new Midnight Rider, only with twisted heel persona.
"Silent But Deadly"

His presence opens the door to various storylines:
- Who was that masked man and why is he here?
- Who's gonna stop him?
- Face promos vowing revenge and unmasking, so-and-so gets hurt, etc. ad nauseum...

Go the Ron Simmons way and have him say only one word. I'll start the suggestions with the word, "turd."

Put him with Santino. He can protect Santino from bathturds like Steve Austin. Plus, it would have continuity, as Lashley helped Santino win the IC title a while back.

[golfMKVtx]

i would assume he would come back and fued with kennedy because they set that up when he left that kennedy "hurt" him so i dont see a heel lashely happening when he returns

I was actually thinking the exact same thing. You could let Santino talk and make Lashley the muscle guy, leading to a push up the card. Sort of like the old Christian Cage/Tomko dynamic

A silent machine of destruction.
EMPHASIS on SILENT.
Give him a lady manager and let him go to town.

Lashley doesn't need a beard.

This is actually a good idea. Santino is good enough on the mic to get Lashley over.

I'd mark for this, acutally. Kudos to you, fine sir.

If they really wanted to push Santino, they could have him befriend Snitsky as well. He could do whatever he wanted with the Towers of Power behind him, and could run roughshod over the entire company.

Who's talking facial hair?
I'm saying.....

Oh, snap.
Now I'm gettin' where you're going.

Why not?
It'll give the Diva Search winner a job and we won't have to hear him butcher a half baked script.

[zombrad]

I'd rather see him turned into a bumbling comedy jobber......maybe make him Regal's bitch.

Regal: Now Robert, and you ready for your match with Hornswoggle tonight?

Lashley: Yesth sthir! I'm gonna tear that little bathturd apart!

:Hornwoggle uses Lashley's own move and spears him in the shins for the win:

He could also use Booker T's Leave it to Beaver-esque theme music, from when he lost the 'T' in his name, and his theme music to Big T.

:You're a bathturd.....music cues:

Damn, if they actually did this, I'd probably become a Lashley fan XD
