In the summer of 2023, Bobby Lashley united with the Street Profits (Montez Ford & Angelo Dawkins) to form a new trio on WWE SmackDown.
Though the group had an edge, and were portrayed as heels, the crowd continued to cheer them. Unofficially named The Pride, they feuded with LWO and Final Testament during their time together.
Appearing on the Lame Guys Podcast, Lashley said they wanted to bring Bianca Belair in with them.
"We were trying to get Bianca with them [Street Profits], too. She is so much of an inspiration for so many people that she can't (turn heel). Little girls absolutely love her, and rightfully so. Bianca is an absolute superstar. The acting part is fantastic. Her athletic ability in the ring, absolutely incredible. Her fire, everything about her. Her and Montez are a superstar couple. The best of the best," he said.
B-Fab ended up being aligned with the group.
Lashley left WWE in summer of 2024 and has not officially signed with another promotion. Fans can find his thoughts on AEW by clicking here.
