Here’s everything you need to know about Bobby Lashley’s response

In a recent interview on “The Bo and Them Show’, Lashley responded to the backlash regarding his comments, stating:

“I just want to clarify… I made a comment about Triple H and Vince. First of all, when you look at any interview I’ve ever done, I’m never a negative person. I never badmouth anyone, I never badmouth the business. I left WWE in 2008, you can’t find any article where I said anything bad about the people there.

“I said something where I had more of a relationship with Vince than Triple H, and everybody was going after me. Vince did this and Triple H did this. It was a very simple, innocent comment. When Vince was here, I had more conversations with him. I don’t know what anybody does in their personal life. And where I work, that’s what I concentrate on.

“And when we were there, Vince was always trying to pull a different side of me. So there were different things I did at that time when I was in the wrestling business when Vince was in charge…

“What Vince told me was I want to see different layers of you… He was like man, there’s so much more to you, so I want to make you feel uncomfortable on TV so that we can get those different layers.

“So I had a different relationship with Vince. When Triple H came on, we didn’t really get a chance to sit down. He didn’t get a chance to get to know me.” (Via The Bo and Them Show/F4WOnline)
