Appearing on The Bo And Them Show, Lashley was asked what was next for him after WWE.

"I'm doing it all. You only live once. I have a lot of gas left in the tank. I'm in great shape. I feel good. I'm motivated, I'm rested. Wrestling, yes. Boxing, yes. MMA, yes. Acting, yes. Everything, yes. I have a lot of different things going on right now. My non-profit, working with kids. I love doing that and working with kids. I want to give back. I do a lot of real estate. I've been linking with some real estate professionals (in Texas) to bring some of my properties here and doing work here. Wrestling, I still want to wrestle. I love wrestling. The fans are writing me every day, 'When are you coming back? Where are you going? We want to be there for you.' I love the fans," said Lashley.

Lashley had not been on WWE television since the April 12th episode of WWE SmackDown. He was scheduled to compete in the King of the Ring tournament, but was pulled due to injury. Lashley last wrestled on the May 5th WWE live event in France.

Lashley recently revealed that he underwent surgery two months ago and hopes he'll be cleared in less than a month. You can find his full comments by clicking here.
