The Intercontinental Championship represents hard-earned validation for Bobby Lashley, but some Superstars aren’t exactly sold on The All-Mighty just het. Apollo Crews, who narrowly missed out on the title on New Year’s Eve, stepped up to the imperious champion and managed to goad his way into a match by mocking Lashley in a pose-down (and atop Lashley’s custom podium, no less).
Crews certainly had the goods to hang with Lashley, flitting around The All-Mighty and even managing to press him over his head (albeit briefly, as the effort left Crews with a tweaked lower back). But Lio Rush, as ever, proved to be the equalizer, catching Crews’ attention and setting him up to be bulldozed by a Spear, which Lashley administered while Apollo had Lio pressed over his shoulders.
The All-Mighty’s victory lap was interrupted by the arrival of Seth Rollins, who locked eyes ominously with the champion as he approached the ring for his match with Drew McIntyre. Seth should tread lightly: If there’s a lesson to be learned from Crews, it’s that you disrespect Lashley at your own risk.
