Do you consider Bobby Lashley a former World Champ?
 
He was a former 2 Time ECW Champion but do you consider him a former world champion?

Aguakate 08-24-2010 01:52 PM

Nope.

Ermaximus 08-24-2010 01:52 PM

Fuck no.

To consider Lashley as a world champ would be the same as saying Mark Henry, Matt Hardy, Chavo, Morrison, and Christian were all World Champs too and as we all know, in the eyes of Vince, being the ECW champ meant dick.

Aguakate 08-24-2010 01:57 PM

...I don't consider ANY of the wrestlers who won the WWE/ECW Title as Former Champions.

Savio 08-24-2010 01:57 PM

I would say the ECW Championship meant more before that one nameless guy killed himself.

CSL 08-24-2010 01:59 PM

No but had he stuck around, he'd probably have multiple reigns by now.

As long as he wasn't on Smackdown. :shifty:

Wow, I actually said yes for Bobby. Mostly because of that big match with Umaga at Wrestlemania, he was a big star in my eyes. I was confused why WWE would let him go.

He quit.

Jordan 08-24-2010 02:09 PM

Yeah I know, but if your WWE you have the money to keep about anybody if you want too.

I think it was more so the "treatment" of Krystal that pushed it over the deep end. That and the racist nature of Micheal Hayes.

bigslimjj 08-24-2010 02:23 PM

If Christian's not, Bobby's not. No.

Savio 08-24-2010 02:25 PM

I myself am torn on it. When he won the title it was still being used credibly but when Morrison (and Vince) won it went down 1,000 points. How ever Jordan X's avatar also puts up a good argument.

Christian is...

Christian is a former 2 time NWA World Heavyweight Champion in TNA.

Brock 08-24-2010 02:58 PM

so what about christian?? he becomes a nwa world champ... did u consider him?? as a former champ?

Razzamajazz 08-24-2010 03:02 PM

the NWA has become so convoluted over the past 15 or so years that it means nothing anymore

BigDaddyCool 08-24-2010 03:06 PM

WWECW World Title > NWA/TNA World Title. That being said, Lashey is not a former world champion, he is a from IC champion. That is what the ECW title is most like.

NeanderCarl 08-24-2010 03:07 PM

Well the ECW title was called the ECW World title when it was first exhumed from the grave wasn't it? I can't remember for sure...

Anyways, any holder of the ECW title (under the WWE revival) has a better claim to being a "World champion" than any holder of the TNA top strap over the years, maybe even to this day.

Brock 08-24-2010 03:40 PM

well ric flair is 16 time world champ.. and then kurt is 12 time..

flair also is a former nwa world champ.. and that nwa world champ of him in counted for his legendary 16 time world champ..

christian is a former nwa champ.. so?? christian is a former world champ??

as for kurt angle.. i think he's become wwe champion for 8 or 9 times..

but the tna world champ count it on his former 12 time world champ..
so as for now? your a former champ..

if u held nwa/tna world champ,wwe champ or world champ

sorry for my bad english.. but i wish anyone getz what i mean..

bigslimjj 08-24-2010 03:50 PM

i wasn't counting TNA. In WWE he is not considered a former world champion. In TNA he for sure is a former 2 time champ.

Innovator 08-24-2010 03:51 PM

Good lord no

The Pope 08-24-2010 04:40 PM

why not? It was called the ECW WORLD Heavyweight championship.

They used to call the TV title the "World Television Championship"...

Anybody Thrilla 08-24-2010 05:04 PM

The New Age Outlaws were "TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS OF THE WORRRRRRRRRRRRRLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLDD". Is Billy Gunn a world champ?

He could have been, but as we all know, he was one of the KOTR winners whose win meant shit.

RiX1024 08-24-2010 05:08 PM

No, the WWECW title meant jack shit anyways.

AJHayes 08-24-2010 05:08 PM

...your mom is a world champ.

Whats the story here?

dronepool 08-24-2010 07:36 PM

I have no idea who Bobby Lashley is because during his time in WWE, I wasn't watching or keeping up with WWE at all.

From what I can remember, Lashley was dating then SD diva Krystal and Hayes was giving her a really hard time or something and she quit and so did he. Can't remember the specifics, but I'll give my friend a ring. He knows.
