Bobby Lashley is a former army veteran turned American professional wrestler and mixed martial artist.

He has a net worth of $4 million to date, as per Celebrity Net Worth. Here, we take a look at Lashley’s career and wealth.

Born in Junction City, Kansas, on July 16, 1976, Lashley made his WWE debut on Sept. 23, 2005.

He is an eight-time world champion, having been a two-time WWE Champion, two-time Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) World Champion and a four-time Impact World Heavyweight Champion.

In 2008, he left WWE following a high-profile rivalry with company chairman Vince McMahon, which included representing Donald Trump in the "Battle of the Billionaires" at WrestleMania 23.

He subsequently pursued a career in Mixed Martial Arts (MMA). He made his professional MMA debut in 2008 and won over Joshua Franklin.

After amassing a career record of 10–2, he signed with Bellator MMA in 2014, where he won all five of his career fights from 2014 to 2016.

In 2009, Lashley began appearing in the professional wrestling promotion Total Nonstop Action (TNA), later renamed Impact, and became a four-time TNA/Impact World Heavyweight Champion and the first African-American to hold that championship title.

He was also a one-time X Division Champion and the final King of the Mountain Champion.

In 2018, he returned to WWE and got assigned to the Raw brand.

Besides wrestling, Lashley opened multiple businesses. He started a health smoothie shop in 2007.

In 2010, he opened a gym in Aurora, Colorado, called the American Top Team Altitude Gym. In the same year, he launched Lashley Management, an MMA management firm that represented current and upcoming fighters. Lashley also reportedly owns multiple rental properties, among other assets.

Lashley has also made endorsement deals with Canadian supplement company Nutrabolics.

It is unclear if the businesses previously launched by Lashley are still operational.
