Shelton Benjamin Wishes Hurt Business Happened With Live Fans – Reunion Possible

Shelton Benjamin wishes that The Hurt Business could have played out in front of a live crowd, and the Gold Standard may get his wish.

Benjamin aligned with Bobby Lashley, MVP, and Cedric Alexander in 2020 and the group would be split against their wishes in early 2021.

Speaking about the faction on a recent edition of the “Insight With Chris Van Vliet” podcast, Benjamin had fond memories of the group despite it not taking place in front of fans. He said,

“The Hurt Business, that will always be something I hold near and dear. I consider it one of the greatest factions. I have nothing but love for The Hurt Business.

“All of us are extremely proud of what we were able to do, especially during that time when the company really needed something. It came out of nowhere. It was a surprise to all of us, and again, it was such a great time. The biggest regret is that we were never in front of a live audience.”

The group briefly reunited in late 2021 and Benjamin is hopeful that a longer reunion could happen down the line. He said,

“I think there are more books and novels for The Hurt Business, personally. As all things do, when things fell apart, I know none of us were happy about it. We did everything we could. It was above our pay grade, and our job is to perform. So that’s what we do. But we really, really wanted to just have that one time where we could walk out in front of an actual crowd.”
