MVP says The Hurt Syndicate’s reunion is meant to give the group the ending that it deserves.
MVP, Bobby Lashley, Shelton Benjamin, and Cedric Alexander had a remarkable run together as the Hurt Business in AEW. WWE broke the group up, and they never got the reunion run that fans wanted to see. WWE released Shelton Benjamin in 2023. MVP and Lashley then left the company this past summer. MVP signed with AEW, and he was subsequently joined by Benjamin and Lashley. Together, they have formed the Hurt Syndicate in AEW.
Speaking on AEW Close with Renee Paquette, MVP was asked why now was the time for the trio to reunite in AEW.
“Why now? Quite frankly because we had an idea that was initially conceived by Bobby, and we were able to put it together, and we executed it flawlessly,” MVP said. “It was very organically popular, and unfortunately, it was ended long before anybody was ready for it to end.
“We felt that we wanted to give our story the proper ending that it deserved, and Tony Khan was kind enough to allow us to bring our conglomerate here and continue doing what we do better than virtually anybody else.
