Mustafa Ali made a return to in-ring action on Raw and has his sights on the US Championship
Bobby Lashley might be holding onto the US Championship for now but Mustafa Ali has his sights on it.
The high-flyer got an important win on this week’s Raw, though he wasn’t in singles action.
Nevertheless, Ali seems interested in getting the US title from Lashley. The All Mighty won the crown from Apollo Crews and he seems ready to keep the gold for a while.
The Hurt Business star looks to be in the best shape of his life and it wouldn’t be a stretch if he keeps the title for long.
However, Ali had some grand plans after winning the title and wanted to make the United States a better place.
Lashley put out a challenge for Ali and it seems the 34-year-old Ali has accepted it.
The United States has been hit hard by several protests in recent years. Many blacks have been killed by the police and protests have hit almost every city.
Ali, for his part, has tried to be a positive agent of change. He was a former police officer in Chicago before making it into WWE.
Ali has won titles across several independent promotions but he has also spoken about some barriers he broke in the wrestling world.
The 34-year-old has brought up his Asian heritage and how a Muslim has made it into wrestling. It is all about breaking barriers for Ali and it would be interesting to see what he would have in store after winning the US title.
Lashley might be bringing the flashy suits but Ali seems willing to try something else and make the US better.
