Triple H To Reunite Popular Tag Team After Long Break
According to the Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. The Game Triple H is set to reunite popular faction The Hurt Business after Bobby Lashley pushed for a reunion.
Lashley has been pushing to redo The Hurt Business and the angle for that started last week,” Dave Meltzer noted. (H/T: Inside the Ropes)
The Hurt Business – Bobby Lashley, Shelton Benjamin, and Cedric Alexander, was managed by MVP. This faction became very popular in less time but WWE Universe was understandably upset when the group was first disrupted in early 2021. They reunited when Benjamin and Alexander helped The All Mighty fight off The New Day on the September 27, 2021 episode of Raw.
Shortly after, the entire Hurt Business was drafted to the red brand. In January 2022, Bobby Lashley informed the rest of his faction that he worked alone and that there was no more Hurt Business. The duo attacked him later that night and the group was officially dissolved. MVP and Omos went on to feud with the former WWE Champion. The feud culminated in a huge match at WrestleMania 38 that saw Bobby Lashley emerge victorious. In recent weeks, multiple hints have indicated that the Hurt Business will reunite soon.
