WWE has ruled the pro-wrestling business for over four decades now. During this time, many other promotions came but none of them sustained in this industry; eventually, Vince McMahon would always win. Current WWE Champion Bobby Lashley agrees with this notion.
These days, WWE is caught up in the ratings war like back in the 90s against WCW. However, Tony Khan’s company (AEW) has still a lot more to do in order to get ahead of WWE on a weekly basis.

Although Vince McMahon has recently said that he does not consider AEW a competition like he considered WCW back in the olden days of the wrestling, but with these recent releases and kayfabe dying by each passing day, Vince needs to be a bit more carefully.

However, many WWE wrestlers have also shared the same thought as Mr. McMahon. The WWE champion ‘The Almighty’ Bobby Lashley confessed WWE will never go down.
In an interview with TV Insider, Lashley talked about this current situation with all these new wrestling promotions taking advantage of all the recently released superstars and gaining momentum.

Lashley boldly claimed that no one can ever intimidate WWE or its management and says that it will always be the face of professional wrestling.
“I think the feeling is good,” Lashley said. “We get tested with so many things. Everyone will say, ‘This is it. This is the downfall of WWE.’ It’s never going to be. We have so much talent in WWE. WWE is never going to be beaten or contested. It’s always going to be the flagship of professional wrestling. That’s never going to change.”
