MVP has made it clear multiple times that he is not a fan of Triple H’s booking and now we know one of the major reasons behind it.
At the K&S WrestleFest virtual signing, MVP revealed that plans were in place for The Hurt Business to reunite in WWE and new merch was made as well, but this plan was canceled out of nowhere and he wasn’t informed about it, which he thought was unprofessional and one of the reasons why he’s salty about this situation.
Here’s what the former United States Champion said:
“We were told we were going to be reunited. I still have a shirt. The shirts were made. Hurt Business on the front. Back in business on the back. They were made. We were told that it was going to happen.
Next thing I see, Bobby is with The Street Profits. ‘What happened here?’ I get a call from Bruce (Prichard), ‘Somebody should have called you. Sorry. We decided we’re going in a different direction.’
What the f**k is that? That’s not professional. That’s how it went down. I’m a professional. I show up and I go to work and do what I’m told. In the pro wrestling business, once you get to a certain level, you do have input into what you do. It’s one thing when we’re told, ‘We’re going to do this’ and steps have been made, and then there is a pivot without a conversation. That’s not good business. I don’t care what anybody thinks. That’s not how you do business.
Needless to say, I was very salty about that. We had Bobby going from a two-time WWE Champion to not being in the conversation or in the title picture at all. Got put with The Street Profits, who were white hot, and they got cooled off. The Street Profits went from being major figures to sitting in catering. I don’t know why. I don’t understand it, but I don’t make decisions in that way.”
MVP also said the following about rumors of The Hurt Business reuniting outside of WWE:
“The Hurt Business is dead and it was killed off by the powers that be. Myself, Bobby Lashley, and Shelton Benjamin are talking amongst ourselves about what we want to do going forward. Stay tuned.”
