On this week’s Monday Night Raw, Bobby Lashley defeated The Miz to became the WWE Champion for the first time in his career. But before his WWE Title match on Raw, he had huge praise for Miz in an interview.
Ahead of his WWE Title Bobby Lashley had an interview with CBS Sports and offered a huge praise for The Miz for putting his effort in the business. He said that if anyone have criticism for The Miz, then, they are jealous of him.
Here what Bobby Lashley said about the Miz:
“You cannot deny the guy. If you have criticism of The Miz? You’re jealous. I remember talking to Miz 16 years ago, and he was having to be in broom closets, having his stuff kicked out of locker rooms and stuff like that. A lot of people would have walked away then. But he didn’t. I don’t know how many years he’s been in the business, but all this time later and he’s still on top? That’s perseverance. That’s stronger than anything else. If anybody has any criticism against Miz? That’s jealousy.”
The Almighty Bobby Lashley also said that winning the WWE Title and going to main event WrestleMania means everything to him and he’s top of the world.
“It means everything. Everything. That’s the top of the food chain. Everybody wants that validation and to know that the work they’re putting in is justified. That world title is the biggest indicator of that. From the time that I came into the business, people were like, ‘Holy cow. That guy has something.’ It was like I had myself right there at the top to where I was almost ready to grab it. There were always those times. I had Cena 15 years ago where I was ready to get that title. Last year with Drew, I was right there about to get that title. I think this time … I think there’s nothing that can hold me back. Getting that title is something 17 years in the making. I’ve been busting my a** and training my ass off to show legitimacy and fight for that title. To get that title means the world to me.”
