Bad news for Bobby Lashley is an opportunity for Angelo Dawkins.
Unfortunately, WWE SmackDown GM Nick Aldis has announced Bobby Lashley is medically disqualified from the King of the Ring tournament due to an injury he suffered while training the nature of the injury has not been disclosed as of yet.
This means that Bobby Lashley will no longer be competing against Tama Tonga in the tournament but it has been announced that he will be replaced by his Pride stablemate, Angelo Dawkins. That match will take place on the May 10 episode of WWE Friday Night SmackDown
