Over the summer, MVP left WWE as his contract expired, and he signed with AEW. He made his AEW debut at AEW Dynamite: Grand Slam. Since then, he has reunited with Shelton Benjamin and Bobby Lashley.
Speaking with Drop The Heat at Heels Have Eyes lll, MVP was asked to comment on why he felt that he needed to leave WWE. He noted that the new management was not for him.
“I left the first time to go to Japan,” MVP said. “This time, I didn’t want to re-sign, and I let it be known that I wasn’t gonna re-sign because the new management in place…any time, I don’t care where you work, whatever you do for a living, when new management comes in, it’s good for some people and not good for other people. Some people, new people come in, old people go. So I just felt that it was definitely time to go because the new management just wasn’t for me, and I ain’t for him.”
