The Hurt Business seems to be imploding right now with only Bobby Lashley pulling his weight. MVP seems disappointed by the lack of chemistry between Cedric Alexander and Shelton Benjamin.
However, the prestige of the faction seems to be in the sky even now. On the latest episode of Raw Talk, WWE United States Champion Bobby Lashley made a lot of eyes go wide open with a subtle rib at UFC fighter Conor McGregor.

Charly Caruso and R-Truth were chatting away as usual on Raw talk when Lashley joined them as the guest. Speaking about the normal business of his faction, Lashley and Charly eventually stumbled upon the recent UFC match.
Conor McGregor, the favorite for the fight, was shockingly beaten by Dustin Poirier by TKO and had to take a major defeat. In the face of this loss, many fans wonder whether he would call it on his MMA career.
Lashley held nothing back and explained how it has been a long-time since McGregor won a fight, so he isn’t technically on top of the world anymore.
Lashley: "When was the last time Conor McGregor won a match?"
Charly: "It's been a while."

Shelton Benjamin, MVP, and Cedric Alexander were all defeated by Riddle, who was then ambushed by Lashley. Although, the loss still counts and 2021 has not been kind to MVP and his men so far.
Only time will tell if The Hurt Business fixes their sinking ship, or if a mutiny sounds better to some of its members.
