Not at all.
I never understood the hype. Not the one from WWE, not the one from most fans when he first came around.
Amateur background or not, he's boring to me. Probably an above-average powerhouse, but too generic nonetheless

I miss the early 2007 push where he would appear in all three shows and beat teams in handicap matches. I don't know what match was better, Lashley vs Randy Orton and Kennedy or Lashley vs Mahoney, Sandman, and Dreamer in an extreme rules match.

Don't forget the one where he took down the entire New Breed in a match by himself. I think this was when people were calling him the Black Cena.

I believe there was also a RAW where Lashley took out the entire RAW Tag Team division.

well how about this. WWE hires New Jack for one day just so they show him backstage walking around then he stumbles across a broken canister that has this green ooze. New Jack picks it up and gets it all over himself. He then undergoes a mutation. Screen flashes and there stands Bobby Lashley as Super New Jack. Only if he gets an instrumental version of the original TMNT theme as his new ring entrance music and starts yelling "Cowabunga!" before he does his finisher.

No.
He needs a heel turn, a mask, a manager and a new name when he gets back.

Ron Simmons and Brock Lersnar miss him, he's a reminder of their love! I don't miss the guy, but can see his potential.

Lets just say there was never really a moment where I wanted to watch the show to see Lashley. I always wanted to see other stuff.
Im passive towards Lashley.
He does slow spears. There I said it.

I miss him. I thought as a talent, he added a lot the roster. Not so much in terms of personality, but as a competitor, he had a lot going for him.

Lashley IS the proverbial black hole in the WWE. I've never once, ever, found anything he's done to be remotely interesting.
And I've also thought up a fun game for us all to play. It's called The Bobby Lashley Memory Game. And I expect this to be really, really hard. Here are the rules. Everyone attempt to name a memorable Bobby Lashley moment, because lord knows there have been SO many of them.
I get the easy one. He was ECW Champion.
Whose next?
Edit: I thought this game up because I have a mind like no other when it comes to remembering dumb things related to wrestling. Yet I can only think of two or three things Bobby Lashley has accomplished thats managed to stick with me. And I have fond memories of "Meat"

He wrestled 4 times in one night, and was part of a promo segment to open the show as well. As much as I tried to forget it, I still have awful memories of that. Also, Vince Mcmahon isn't just old enough to be his uncle. He's old enough to be his DAD'S uncle.

Lashley needs to come back with a five year old kid gimmick holding a huge wollipop.

Who is Lashley?
Seriously, though, the man desperately needs a manager or valet. He's good in the ring and has a great look, but he has no charisma. He needs someone to talk for him, and to make him more memorable.

I don't remember any Bobby Lyndsay. But I do remember Black Lesnar.

I want Lashley to come back as a fart heel - silent but deadly.
