The stars of The Hurt Business have certainly figured out how to work as a unit, and their alliance has brought them all major success.
Currently The Hurt Business is made up of four members, but ever since the faction was formed there’s been a lot of talk about other talents who could have ended up in the group.
During a recent appearance on After The Bell with Corey Graves current WWE Champion Bobby Lashley talked about The Hurt Business, and he said that originally he wanted Apollo Crews in the group.
“When I got in [to WWE] and got an opportunity to work with him, I was like man, Apollo is a cool dude man. What I was telling him before, when we started The Hurt Business, we wanted Apollo first because I was like man Apollo, you need that man. You’re too pretty, you’re too nice, we like you too much. You got to be hated bro, you gotta have some grit. We tell Cedric, Cedric be as dirty as you can and Cedric is dirty. Apollo needs that too man.”
Lashley also noted that before he returned to WWE Apollo Crews hit him up for some advice.
“Before I even came back [to WWE], Apollo hit me up and I didn’t even know Apollo, he gave me a DM. He was like ‘Hey man, I have a couple questions to ask you. Did you ever get frustrated when you were here?’ I was like ‘Listen bro, you’re talking to a man who’s not in [the WWE] and that wants to get in. You’re in the greatest place you can be right now, and you’re an amazing talent and that’s something that can not be denied. Just stay there man, maybe it’s not your time right now, eat catering and have a good time. Whenever you have an opportunity to get out there, do the best you can and you won’t be denied because you’re incredible.”
