MVP says the newest chapter of his wrestling career is quite possibly the final chapter of his illustrious run in the sports entertainment world.
The former WWE star made his highly anticipated AEW debut during the Dynamite: Grand Slam special this Wednesday. He interrupted a segment with Prince Nana and looked to make acquaintence with the former AEW World Champion Swerve Strickland.
The newest AEW signee commented on his arrival in a new video on Instagram. He claimed that he is the same MVP, just conducting business in a new place:
“Cat’s out of the bag. By now I’m sure many of you know – and if you don’t, you’re about to find out – that I’ve embarked on an exciting new chapter for my professional wrestling career.
And I’m excited because this new chapter is quite possibly the final chapter. And I’ve got some really cool things in store. So if you’ve been a fan of mine for this long, come hang out for just a little bit longer. Same MVP, just conducting business in a new location. MVP is AEW. See you next week.”
MVP’s Last Run?
Managing the Hurt Business was the highlight of MVP’s second WWE run from 2020 to 2024. The group consisting of Bobby Lashley, Shelton Benjamin, and Cedric Alexander ruled the Raw brand during the pandemic era.
While the group disbanded in early 2022, the fans believed that there was a lot more the company could have done with them. WWE even teased a reunion for the faction in early 2023 but the idea was quickly dropped.
Three of the four members of the Hurt Business have since left WWE with MVP himself departing in August this year after his contract expired. Cedric Alexander is the only star who is still with the company, having signed a new contract recently.
MVP has been talking about the reunion of the faction in recent months. Fans who paid close attention to his AEW debut will know that it also teased the arrival of the group on Tony Khan’s promotion.
