    WWE Raw performer Bobby Lashley is headed into the world of mixed martial arts, following Brock Lesnar's lead.

    Lashley is a two-time National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics wrestling champion at 177-lbs. He later joined the US Army and was a two-time armed forces wrestling champion.

    At 6'3" and over 270-lbs, Lashley likely has his sights set on competing as a heavyweight. Though he has a wrestling pedigree, he is not in the same class as Lesnar or Kurt Angle. Hopefully the hundred pounds he gained between college and the WWE were achieved naturally...

    Considering you don't see very many HW MMA guys as crazy big as him, I'd be surprized if he didn't use some steroids. It'll be interesting to see his WWE physique vs. MMA physique. I could be wrong, I don't know enough about steroids or other enhancers.

    Why would they let this guy fight?? He obviously is on the juice...they should make him drop down to 215 and then let him fight.
