WWE Superstar Bobby Lashley revealed that he incredibly pitched to put on 70lbs as part of a wrestling storyline.
The former WWE Champion said that he wanted to “just be fat” and put on an insane amount of weight to make his “severely depressed” character work.
The idea was rejected by Vince McMahon, but many fans were left questioning what Lashley would have looked like if he gained all that weight.
For context, Lashley told Sam Roberts on the 'Not Sam Wrestling' podcast that he wanted to gain just shy of 100lbs to make his character work, via WrestleTalk.
I told Vince a year ago, I want to go into the severe depression and put on like 40, 50, 60, or 70 pounds and just be fat, and then be a completely different character.
So it didn't end up happening, but GiveMeSport still wanted to find out what Bobby would look like if Vince actually let him put on all that weight.
Obviously, there's no way to know for sure, but using the Fatify app, we've had Lashley put on an extra 70lbs, and it makes for some rather interesting viewing.
You can see the side-by-side images below, with the photo on the right showing what Lashley would look like if he did put on the weight, at least according to Fatify.
As you can see, the difference isn't all that drastic, but you can definitely tell from the image on the right that Lashley's face is a lot puffier after putting on 70lbs, which you would definitely expect to happen.
Lashley dropped the United States title to Seth Rollins on Monday Night Raw last week, but fans definitely shouldn't worry that the former MMA star is going to move down the card now.
Before his match with Rollins, Lashley was attacked by Brock Lesnar, setting up a match between the pair.
