5 Directions For New WWE Champion Drew McIntyre Following WrestleMania 36
Where does the new champ go from here?
2. Bobby Lashley
You might groan at this, and it's hard to blame you - WWE has stumbled at the line with Lashley, be it the Lana/Rusev soap opera, or the insipid "sisters" angle. The best version of Lashley we've seen over the past two years came when he was paired with Lio Rush as his hypeman. There, they had something akin to the Heyman/Lesnar dynamic - the overbearing hustle hyping the overpowering muscle.
Lashley would need a bit more character rehab than someone like, say, Rollins, but a Lashley/McIntyre battle has potential to be outstanding. They had a very good match against each other at Slammiversary 2016; they can do it again.
