He’s in? WrestleMania is the kind of event that almost every wrestler would love to work on at some point in their career. The event has become the biggest and most important event on the wrestling calendar and being on it can be quite the boost to a wrestler’s status. Now a former WWE star is willing to take the place of a missing star in a match that has not even been made yet.

Over the last few weeks, a match between Bray Wyatt and Bobby Lashley has been teased but not confirmed for WrestleMania 39. Wyatt has since vanished from WWE TV, with reports that he is dealing with an unspecified health issue. As a result, Lashley may be left without a WrestleMania opponent. During an appearance on Insight With Chris Van Vliet, former WWE star Chris Masters volunteered to face Lashley at WrestleMania. Masters previously offered to face Lashley earlier this year, suggesting a Masterlock vs. Hurt Lock match. There is no word on who Lashley is expected to face at WrestleMania.
There is a history here. Check out the two of them together and on their own:
Opinion: This is the kind of match offer that is good for a chuckle but not likely much more. Masters and Lashley do share a bit of a history together but with Masters having not been in WWE for about twelve years, there is only so much that could be put together for such a match. It can bring up a bit of nostalgia though and that is about as much as you could ask for from this situation.
What do you think of Masters’ offer? Who do you want to see Lashley face at WrestleMania 39? Let us know in the comments below.
