The famous YouTuber and rapper KSI made his WWE debut last night at WrestleMania to help out Logan Paul. After failing at his goal, the professional boxer recently talked about his potential WWE career. He even named Bobby Lashley as one of the superstars he would like to face in the squared circle.

After WrestleMania night 1, KSI gave a backstage interview to Cathy Kelly reflecting on his debut. Needless to say, it was not the best of nights for the British YouTuber. During the Logan Paul vs Seth Rollins match, KSI was accidentally frog-splashed through the announcer’s desk by his own friend. Regardless, it was a surprising moment when he revealed himself as the person disguised as the Prime bottle.

During the WWE Exclusive interview, Cathy Kelly asked KSI who he would like to face in a WWE ring. After thinking about it, the YouTuber-turned-boxer gave the name Bobby Lashley as the prime prospect. He even mentioned he had great respect for Rey Mysterio. However, he would not like to go against such a big name.

As the fans might know, Bobby Lashley is fresh from winning the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royale the previous night on SmackDown. The All-Mighty was scheduled to have a WrestleMania match against Bray Wyatt this weekend. However, his road to WrestleMania got derailed as his scheduled opponent was sidelined due to a “physical illness.”

Can Bobby Lashley make an appearance at WrestleMania Night 2?

A few weeks ago, Bobby Lashley sent out an open challenge to the WWE locker room inviting anyone who wants to step up at WrestleMania. The All-Mighty was of course gutted after learning that Bray Wyatt was pulled from WrestleMania weekend. By extension, this left him with no plans for the Show of Shows either. However, the rumors are that Bobby Lashley can still appear in some capacity at WrestleMania.

The former WWE champion would want to continue his momentum from Friday into the Showcase of the Immortals. There is a chance that Bobby Lashley lays out an open challenge tomorrow on Night 2 leading to an impromptu match. And if KSI really wants to fight the All-Mighty he could step up and make his in-ring debut as soon as tomorrow.

On the other hand, the former Hurt Business leader could even interfere in the Brock Lesnar vs Omos match, reuniting with MVP. There were some rumors that Triple H is looking to reform the Hurt Business earlier this year. However, these soon died down as MVP got involved with Omos. Regardless, the WWE Universe would love nothing more than to give Bobby Lashley his flowers at WrestleMania in whatever way they can.
