Bobby Lashley says The Street Profits can do incredible things with him as an ally.
The Street Profits have recently began allying themselves with Bobby Lashley and as a result, have been in the process of developing as heels on SmackDown. Lashley has been trying to teach the tag team how to have a killer instinct, and the trio will face off with The LWO at WWE Fastlane this Saturday.
Speaking on 100.7 The Bay, Lashley was asked why he took the Street Profits under his wing.
“When I first came on, there were a lot of guys that supported me and helped me because they saw something in me. That’s what I did at this point of my career because achieving that accolade of winning a WWE Championship was enormous for my career and nothing can really top that. Now, it’s just building a legacy, and a legacy with people I want to be with and be around. That was the reason why I picked the Street Profits originally. It’s not that I’m over or I’m not doing anything, I know what I’m capable of doing and I have a lot left in the tank to win another WWE Championship, to win a Tag Team Championship. I have a lot left in the tank for all of these different areas. I just wanted to bring some people on that I felt would be deserving. I watched The Street Profits for a while and those guys are extremely talented. They just needed the right allies. To be an ally for these guys, I think they can do some incredible things,”

As of late, Bobby has become more more impressed as Ford and Dawkins have begun to show the killer instinct he had been hoping to see from the team.
Lashley is scheduled to return to the ring for the first time in months this Friday on SmackDown ahead of the match at WWE Fastlane.
