Bobby Lashley was sick and tired of MVP interfering in his matches with Omos, so he challenged The Nigerian Giant to a steel cage match for the May 16 edition of WWE Monday Night Raw. The intent of this match was to prevent MVP from interfering in the proceedings, and Lashley actually went out of his way to challenge Omos to this fight inside the unforgiving steel structure.
It didn't take long for MVP and Cedric Alexander, who is trying to get back into his former manager's good graces, to insert themselves into the bout. Alexander attacked Lashley as he walked to the ring for the match—which opened Monday Night Raw—and MVP joined in. The action would eventually return to the ring, where Lashley appeared ready for the match despite being at a clear advantage.
The All Mighty actually looked set to win before Alexander prevented him from leaving the cage. A few moments later, Lashley's feet would actually touch the floor first, making him the winner, but probably not the way he was planning for them to. Borrowing a spot from big men in years gone by, Omos picked Lashley up and then proceeded to throw him through the steel cage. It was reminiscent of Kane's debut at Bad Blood: In Your House in 1997. Lashley is obviously no Stone Cold Steve Austin, but the "break the cage" strength still came through loud and clear for Amos.
It's worth noting that, up until this point in the match, MVP had still been very much involved, poking Lashley in the eye with his cane repeatedly. Alexander also got involved numerous times and was thrown to the canvas from the top of the steel cage by Lashley for his trouble.
With this finish, it seems like WWE fans haven't seen the last of this feud. It'll only be a matter of time before MVP finds a way to spin Omos' loss in a way that will lead to some kind of rematch. With Hell In A Cell on the horizon, it seems like a match with that stipulation is where this whole thing is going. The obvious angle seems to be, "hey, if a steel cage can't contain these two men, only one unholy structure can." That card is still unsettled, and it's unlikely to feature Roman Reigns in any kind of title defense. As such, fireworks will be necessary. If WWE Monday Night Raw was any indication, Omos and Lashley just might be able to pull off an entertaining Hell In A Cell fight.
