Just seven days after defeating The Miz to capture the WWE Championship, WWE has announced that Bobby Lashley will be defending his title on tonight’s episode of Monday Night Raw.
Despite there no longer being automatic rematch clauses, WWE has announced that Bobby Lashley will defend his title for the first time on Monday Night Raw tonight against The Miz.
WWE.com had the following to say on the matter:
Last week on Raw, Bobby Lashley conquered The Miz in dominant fashion to become the new WWE Champion in a Lumberjack Match. Tonight, the All Mighty titleholder will kick off his reign in a rematch against The A-Lister. Can Miz find a way to overcome the intense force of nature? Or will it simply be the first stop on the All Mighty Road to WrestleMania? Don’t miss Monday Night Raw, tonight at 8/7 C on USA
It has been speculated that WWE is going to have Bobby Lashley drop the WWE Championship to Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 37, allowing McIntyre to get the pop in front of fans that he didn’t get last year.
