When The Hurt Business formed they quickly became one of the most talked about groups in professional wrestling and it seemed like the future was bright for their alliance. However, shortly after Bobby Lashley won the WWE Championship the powers that be decided to split The Hurt Business up, and fans around the world have been hoping for a reunion ever since.
Shelton Benjamin recently spoke to Chris Van Vliet about the reaction to The Hurt Business being split up, and he admitted that no one in the group was happy about it.
“Definitely. First of all, I think they’re there. I think there are more books and novels for The Hurt Business. Personally, you know, because when things as all things do, when things fell apart I don’t think any of us were happy about it.
“Yeah, we did everything we could. It was above our pay grade, and our job is to perform. The decision-makers have made the decisions. Our job is to perform. So that’s what we do. But at the same time, it’s like, man, we really, really want it to just have that one time we can just walk out in front of an actual crowd. You know, because it’s one thing to know that what you’re doing is getting over when there’s no one around. You know, but we still felt it.
“So we wanted to you know, we all wanted to experience The Hurt Business in front of a live crowd. That’s what we work for, what we live for. Yeah, that adrenaline rush there’s, there’s nothing like it.”
WWE has teased a possible Hurt Business reunion in the past, but the company hasn’t moved forward with the idea. Now it seems unlikely to happen as Bobby Lashley recently formed a new stable with The Street Profits on SmackDown.
