Former ECW champion Bobby Lashley returned to TNA Wrestling, four years after he last appeared on Impact, getting “fired” by Eric Bischoff on television.

Lashley made a surprise return at the Lockdown pay-per-view yesterday to answer Ethan Carter III’s open challenge. EC3 complained that since Lashley wasn’t on the active roster, he wouldn’t do it but Lashley proceeded to beat the hell out of him anyway.

Since he left TNA in 2010, Lashley made several appearances in the indy circuit and continued his MMA career with a record currently standing at 10-2.
