I want to see like, Umaga or Samoa Joe more than Lashley.
Umaga would rule.

Im done arguing this you have flipped your lid if you think Lashley is even in Undertakers league speed wise never mind the fact Lesnar would run circles around them this is the most idiotic argument I've heard in a long time, let me guess Viscera is faster than both of them right?

I think Lashley has huge potential. I haven't watched wrestling in a long time so I've never seen him wrestle but I have seen his crenditials and I think he could defiantly be a legit MMA fighter.

I think Lashley is probably faster than Lesnar.

Basing an opinion from his stint in WWE is insane.
When ya look at his credentials before the WWE, he definetly has some promise. I look forward to seeing how he does.

i was looking at his college stats and he won those titles at80 kilos so that close to 180 pounds...even though he's huge and roided now i'm pretty sure he still has small guy speed and is probably faster than lesnar...since lesnar won his titles at heavywieght...if he gets off the roids maybe loses a bit of muscle i see him being pretty good at light heavyweight...maybe even a middleweight but that's kinda pushing it

This is funny because unlike Lesnar, Lashley actually is on steroids. Also, Lashley isn't as strong as Lesnar (Lesnar tossed around the Big Show like a doll and Lashley barley got him off the ground.
Lesnar is also more athletic, and much quicker and more agile then Lashley. I don't think Lashley can fare well in MMA, especially since he is going to get flabby and become even weaker without the roids.
BTW the reason I say he is on roids is because Lesnar wrestled in the NCAA at somewhere around 300 pounds, but Lashley wrestled at somehwere around 190 pounds, and their both about 280 pounds now..so I think it's fair to agree with my assessment.

Lashley had to pick up a much bigger Big Show than Lesnar did. Wight is notorious for having weight problems,and he was pretty damn big in their match(which I just watched to check out Lashleys strength). Also, Lashleys scoop powerslam is a lot harder than the f-5 as far as strength goes.
I'd be interested to see this, if Lashley fought in a small org against nobodies.
But yeah, Lesnar is definately quicker and more athletic.

As a former wrestling fan, I still have to disagree. Paul was still around the 500lb area during Lesnars time, but Lesnar didn't only F-5 him, he running powerbombed him, he suplexed him, superplexed him, german suplexed him, and belly to belly suplexed him. Lashley got him off him feet barley while Lesnar through him like a doll. Also, what I think even further defines Lesnars uncanny strength is he turned has the Undertaker (a 300 pound man) in a scoopslam position, the from there cradled him like a baby and tossed him on his shoulders.
However I can't find a link to the undertaker thing so this should suffice

I am not arguing that Lashley is stronger, I am just putting it in perspective. And the big show had a lot of extra weight on him when Lashley worked with him, look

Lashleys move takes a lot of strength to pull off.
That running powerbomb wasn't hard, he didn't even have to set him up for it. It doesn't take much strength to walk forwards and fall down lol. Suplexes and superplexes are not that difficult either. The belly to belly, I will give you that one.
