3 potential new members of The Hurt Syndicate in AEW

The Hurt Syndicate has more than made their presence known in AEW ever since their arrival. MVP, Shelton Benjamin and Bobby Lashley are now on the move to add to their ranks and recruit some potential stars to the group.

The group's figurehead MVP has been busy handing out business cards to start the recruitment process.

We're here to take a look at the three potential stars who could join the faction and would fit nicely within its ranks.


#3) The Hurt Syndicate could add Powerhouse Hobbs

Powerhouse Hobbs has been embroiled in a deeply heated feud with the Don Callis family, ever since he rebelled against them.

He is currently set to face Konosuke Takeshita for the International Championship at AEW World's End 2024.

The Hurt Syndicate could provide him assistance at the show and help him win his second title.

This could then seal the deal and convince him to join their group. Another actual powerhouse such as Will Hobbs would do wonders for their popularity and establishing them as a top faction.


#2) Max Caster could accept MVP's invitation and betray his AEW faction

Max Caster is currently in an awkward spot with his faction, The Acclaimed. It's been a while since the tag team has been at the top of their game and they have not found much success since they dropped the AEW Trios titles.

They had been approached by MVP while he was recruiting for his group. Anthony Bowens immediately declined the proposition but Max Caster seemingly considered it.

The group has been facing issues for a while now, with Bowens even hinting at a potential split in the future. Perhaps, all of this frustration could come to a head soon and have Max Caster turn his back on his faction and choose to side with The Hurt Syndicate.


#1) Ricochet could turn into a main eventer with the help of The Hurt Syndicate

MVP has reached out to several stars to join their ranks but he and his group seem to be interested in one star the most, Ricochet.

The faction has extended their helping hand and invitation to join them to the high-flyer a few times.

Ricochet seems to be enjoying success in the AEW Continental Classic by himself at the moment. However, perhaps he might want to reconsider his options if he wants to move up the ranks and become an official main eventer.

The Hurt Syndicate could easily help him come up as a formidable AEW main event star and with MVP speaking for him on the microphone, it would solve a lot of his weaknesses.

Perhaps we'll see him turn heel once he reaches the end of the Continental Classic.
