Er, what? Bobby Lashley took to Twitter and asked for President Trump to be in his corner for Slammiversary. While I’m sure the presidents approval rating would just soar by being on Impact Wrestling, I think this might be a long shot somehow. I guess the only way to find out is to tune in on July 2nd!
Or you know, don’t and read about it later.
Well, it looks like I need to find a cornerman for Slammiversary? @realDonaldTrump? It won't be the 1st time! #reallegend https://t.co/7bX7GN5hJL

Amazingly, Impact are so serious about this, they issued a press release. That crazy drunken Jeff Jarrrett and his schemes.
Lashley Wants President Trump In His Corner For Slammiversary on July 2nd
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASENashville (June 23, 2017) – IMPACT Wrestling World Champion Bobby Lashley made an unprecedented Presidential appeal on Thursday morning.
Via Twitter, Lashley (@fightbobby) asked President Donald Trump to be in his corner for his title defense at Slammiversary on July 2, when Lashley puts the gold on the line against Alberto El Patron.
El Patron earlier this week announced that his father, legendary Mexican wrestler Dos Caras, will be in his corner at Slammiversary.
Lashley asked Trump to join him at Slammiversary, which will be held on pay-per-view and filmed at the backlot of Universal Studios Florida in Orlando.
“Well, it looks like I need to find a cornerman for Slammiversary? @realDonaldTrump? It won’t be the 1st time! #reallegend,” Lashley tweeted.
IMPACT Wrestling is waiting for an answer from Trump.
