Bobby Lashley stopped by The Shoot on November 13th, he was welcomed by hosts Gary Cantrell and Alan Martin. Gary starts off by asking Bobby about his WWE release. "I spoke with some of the higher ups, and just came to the conclusion that I did ask for my release." Bobby also responded to the rumors that his release involved Kristal Marshall by saying, "There was nothing at all to do with Kristal why I left. I don't know who brought that up or why that brought that up but it was completely wrong." He also mentioned that he would love to go back to professional wrestling at some point as he really enjoyed the atmosphere and interacting with the fans. Gary then goes on to ask him about the feeling of headlining a Wrestlemania. "Walking out there in front of 85,000 people, it was without a doubt surreal man." He was then asked if he was at all nervous before walking through the curtain, and Bobby said "I was more anxious than nervous. I was ready to go out there, I couldn't wait to get out there." The conversation switched to talking about the schedule that comes with being a top tier WWE star. "It has a big effect on your family life but I think the people that are able to it for a long time have a lot of support from their family. All in all your doing a lot, but on the same token your able to take care of your family like you never have before. There was things that I was able to do for my family, my extended family, friends, and everyone else that I never thought I'd be able to do so I didn't mind at all sacrificing myself in order to take care of everyone else and everyone else understood it."
