Speculation about former WWE Superstar Bobby Lashley joining AEW gained momentum last week. During AEW Dynamite: Grand Slam, MVP debuted and confronted Prince Nana, criticizing his management of former AEW World Champion Swerve Strickland.
MVP handed Prince Nana a business card, urging him to pass it on to Strickland for a potential business discussion. MVP’s arrival intensified speculation about Bobby Lashley, MVP, and Shelton Benjamin potentially reuniting and reforming The Hurt Business in AEW.
In the latest episode of AEW Dynamite, Shelton Benjamin made his AEW debut. During a backstage segment, Renee Paquette welcomed MVP, who was ready to make a significant announcement. However, Prince Nana interrupted him, expressing his displeasure over MVP’s comments about him and Swerve Strickland from the previous week.
Nana reminded MVP that he was a former professional wrestler and would never think twice about tying his boots. In response, MVP dismissed Nana’s comments as complaints, stating he did not address such issues, but “he does,” while gesturing off-screen.
At that moment, Shelton Benjamin appeared on-screen to a tremendous ovation from the fans. With MVP and Shelton Benjamin now in AEW, recent reports have shed light on former WWE Superstar Bobby Lashley’s status with the promotion.
