After appearing briefly for TNA, former ECW Champion Bobby Lashley’s run stopped due to failure to secure a contract. Committed to his mixed martial arts career, details needed to be hammered out in order to assure that Lashley could remain focused on fighting while still making a real contribution to TNA.
The deal is finally done.
Lashley announced this week that he has finally signed with TNA Wrestling and will begin his tenure at the Victory Road pay-per-view. Lashley is also booked for next week’s iMPACT! Tapings.
“I still wanted to wrestle but I wanted to fight, so it was like, how do you do both? I spoke with Dixie Carter, the owner of TNA and she was really, really helpful and she wanted to give me an opportunity to help my career and an opportunity to give back to wrestling,” said Lashley to ESPN Radio.
