Bobby Lashley and Lana’s onscreen love affair on Monday Night Raw has not been a very popular storyline for a lot of WWE fans. But while most of these people may dislike the angle because they see it as tacky or tasteless, a number of individuals have apparently taken issue with the fact that it features an African American man and a Caucasian woman in a romantic relationship, as Lashley suggested in a recent interview.
Speaking to Sports Illustrated‘s Justin Barrasso in an interview published on Monday, Lashley touched base on several topics but mostly discussed his on-air wedding with Lana, which he described as the “biggest thing that has ever happened on TV” ahead of its airing on this week’s episode of Raw. Prior to that, however, Barrasso asked the Lashley if he’s received any negative attention for being in a fictional interracial relationship with Lana, who, in real life, is still married to fellow Raw superstar Rusev.
