The Hurt Business has truly proven itself to be one of the most dominant factions in the history of WWE as Bobby Lashley, Cedric Alexander, Shelton Benjamin and MVP have shown the professional wrestling world that they mean business, before Shelton and Cedric were removed. The group started with Bobby Lashley and the rest joined in afterwards. MVP is to be credited for the success of the faction as all the members were floundering on the main roster until they formed the group. Bobby Lashley also successfully defended his WWE Championship against Drew McIntyre on Night One of WrestleMania 37. Bobby Lashley also successfully retained his WWE Championship at WrestleMania Backlash as well. Bobby Lashley also seemingly brought back an Attitude Era group.
Booker T recently spoke on his Hall of Fame podcast and talked about a possible match between Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley at WWE SummerSlam this year.
“Brock Lesnar showing up and hearing that music, and Paul Heyman’s there by his side, just that picture right there is worth the price of admission. I remember working Big Show and John Cena in the Champion of Champions match. Nobody thought I was going to win that match. If there was money in Vegas on that match, I don’t think too many people had odds on Booker T walking out that match the Champion of Champions. For Bobby Lashley to be in a match somewhere like that, Champion of Champions match, and then actually winning it in a dominant fashion, MVP cutting a great promo on the world as far as Bobby Lashley being The All Mighty, and then the music (Brock Lesnar’s) hits. That right there, I get goosebumps, something like that I can buy into, that’s money.”
