The Steel Cage LoungeThe Wedding of Lashley & LanaWhen Bobby Lashley was anointed ECW champion at December to Dismember 2006, it was because Vince McMahon foresaw big things for the big man. If what he saw in the future was a wedding angle that included a former FSU cowgirl, 4 jilted ex-lovers, a lesbian twist, a Bulgarian brute, and fantasy booking from CM Punk, well then Vince must be Nostradamus. What Vince did not foresee was that Smitty, Tyback, and the Doctor would subject themselves to the climax of one of the most controversial angles of the past decade.
