Cook came to the ring sporting a pro wrestling lucha libre mask which annoyed Lashley, who refused to touch gloves at the start of the fight. As soon as the bell rang, Lashley charged at Cook and secured a guillotine. Lashley held on to the guillotine and took Cook to the ground, forcing Cook to go limp. Referee John McCarthy called the fight off just 24 seconds into Round 1.

Lashley doesn't have much time to rest, as his next challenge is just around the corner in MMA veteran Bob Sapp on June 27 at the Mississippi Gulf Coast Coliseum in Biloxi, Miss.
