The Pride (Bobby Lashley & The Street Profits) will take on The Final Testament (Karrion Kross & Authors of Pain) in a 6-man Philadelphia Street Fight this Sunday on Night 2 of WrestleMania 40.
During an interview on WWE’s The Bump, Lashley said he feels like he has been handcuffed in the company as of late.
Here’s what the former WWE Champion said:
“I get to fight. This whole year, I’ve been handcuffed lately. I’m looking at the main event. There’s 4 guys in the main event. I’ve beaten three of them. Not throwing it out there, just saying.
I feel like I’ve been handcuffed a little bit. But this is my opportunity to beat up Kross and his boys and then we’re gonna look at bigger things afterwards.
I’ve been doing this for a long time. The end of the road is gonna be sometime, I don’t know. Not soon hopefully. While I’m here, I’m gonna be here for you guys.
Lately I’ve been coming in and I’ve been really nice to people, shaking people’s hands, and I feel like we’re letting people in that should not be in and the level has gone down a little bit for some people. So I feel like we’re being a little too delicate with people.
Since that, I’m not in the main event, I’m not going for the World Title. I think I was being a little complacent.
So instead of being complacent, I’m just gonna start ripping people apart and taking what I deserve in this business.”
Karrion Kross heard Lashley’s comments and tweeted the following:
“Handcuffed.
How tight are the cuffs?
I’m just curious.
Because some of us are so tightly handcuffed that if we even mention handcuffs; we’re gone.
You know what WE do instead of crying about it publicly???
We do our best to outperform the position delegated & BREAK THEM.
That’s what it takes to hang with the best.
I’m gonna smash this guy Sunday,
He ain’t the same anymore.”
