1) Backstage Notes On The Hurt Business Splitting Up
According to Sean Ross Sapp on Fightful Select (subscribe here), it was Vince McMahon’s idea to break-up the Hurt Business. Bobby Lashley and MVP were said to be upset about Vince’s decision and even met with him about it.
Here is what Sapp wrote:
Sources indicated that both MVP and Lashley met with Vince McMahon about the idea, but the latter dug his heels in even more.
It was also noted that Vince breaking up the group was seen as a blow to morale in the locker room:
Based on several wrestlers that we spoke to, the decision, and McMahon’s insistence to continue down that road was a blow to morale.
My Take:
- I was sad to see them split as I am a big fan of factions. I thought that WWE could have kept them together for longer.
