Former WWE Star Ahmed Johnson Talks Who He Would Want To Face Today

There’s a name out of the past. There have been a lot of wrestlers throughout WWE’s history and several of them seem to go away without much of a peep. It can be interesting to think about what someone would do if they had stuck around in the industry and wonder where they would fit in today. Now a star of the past is talking about what he would like to do today.

Former WWE Intercontinental Champion Ahmed Johnson was a guest on the Iron-On Wrestling podcast and mentioned that he would like to face Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley of today’s roster. In addition, Johnson said that he had wanted to face Sid Vicious or the Ultimate Warrior of the roster from his career. Johnson appeared for WWE from 1995-1998 before leaving the company after a series of injuries.

Opinion: I was a huge fan of Johnson back in the day and it would indeed have been fun to see him face one of those powerhouses. Johnson was one of the more impressive stars of his day and it seemed like he was ready to become the biggest star in the WWF. However, that was cut off due to a variety of issues, leaving him as one of the bigger what if’s in the company’s history.

What did you think of Johnson? How far could he have gone in WWE had he stayed healthy? Let us know in the comments below.
