The Hurt Syndicate

MVP shared a positive update on The Hurt Syndicate’s AEW return.

He posted on X that the group is back together and will make their AEW comeback soon. 

“The coolest thing is that we are back together in @AEW and we’ll be back in action SOON! Hurting people!!!” tweeted MVP. 

In a December 2025 edition of Collision, MVP announced that Bobby Lashley was injured but the details and nature of the injury remained undisclosed. During the recovery period, Lashley addressed potentially targeting the AEW World Championship upon his return. 

Lashley’s last match was at Full Gear the month earlier in a Casino Gauntlet match for the AEW National Championship. 

Meanwhile, Shelton Benjamin competed in the  Dynamite Diamond Ring 2025 Battle Royal and AEW Continental Title Eliminator against Jon Moxley. 

In the second half of 2025, the group was also in pursuit of the AEW Trios Championship but were defeated by The Opps in October. In January last year, Lashley and Benjamin captured the AEW Tag Team Titles, which also marked their first championship reign on the promotion. 

Benjamin, Lashley and MVP made their AEW debut in September 2024 as The Hurt Syndicate, a revamped version of their WWE faction, The Hurt Business.
