Fans of WWE are shocked to see Bobby Lashley still in the spotlight despite his contract with WWE ending this month. Fans have been eagerly talking and guessing since the news was revealed. Nevertheless, with the emergence of more information, the situation took an unexpected turn, leading to uncertainty regarding the accuracy of Lashley’s departure.
Is the farewell official, or is there more to come?
His exit was bound to provoke attention because of his remarkable professional history. Yet, to the confusion of fans, Lashley was recently seen on a promotional poster for the well-known TV show Family Feud. The upcoming episode features a special celebrity edition where WWE men will face off against WWE women. The women’s team boasts big names like Michin, Bianca Belair, Jade Cargill, Zelina Vega, and Sonya Deville. Meanwhile, the men’s team includes The Street Profits, LA Knight, Austin Theory, and—most curiously—Bobby Lashley.
WWE fans caught in a whirlwind of confusion
For WWE fans, this appearance by Lashley raised immediate questions. How could a superstar who is no longer under contract be participating in a WWE-branded event? Theories quickly circulated. Some people theorized that the scene was recorded well in advance of Lashley’s contract ending, while others pondered if it suggested Lashley may still have a future with WWE. The WWE Universe, recognized for their enthusiasm and attention to detail, turned to social media to express their opinions.

A user commented on the inconvenient timing of Lashley’s appearance, hinting that the episode could have been filmed weeks before his departure. “Wow, Bobby Lashley showed this before he departed.” Another fan tweeted, expressing the overall feeling of discomfort about seeing this on television. Some users even made humorous comments, with one person joking, “Perhaps it was a mistake in the Matrix that caused it, huh?”
The pressing query: what comes after Bobby Lashley?
Some think that Lashley could potentially pursue options in different combat sports like boxing due to his strong foundation in MMA. Ashley’s exit from WWE is definitely important, but what lies ahead for her is still unknown. Will he come to a new agreement with WWE, or will he utilize his skills in a different place? If he does decide to take action, how will it affect the wrestling community? Supporters are excited to find out what the coming chapter of Lashley’s career has in store, and they are open about expressing their opinions.

Some have chosen a more methodical method, attempting to reconstruct the sequence of events. A viewer pointed out that Austin Theory, seen in the same episode, was carrying a blue tag team championship belt, indicating that the episode was recorded several weeks before Lashley’s contract ended. This clarification has brought comfort to fans, yet it hasn’t curbed the rampant speculation.
