Bobby Lashley kicks off AEW Dynamite; continues to use WWE nickname
The Hurt Syndicate has addressed the world following them now being full force in AEW with the arrival of Bobby Lashley last week. They were eventually confronted by Swerve Strickland.
Lashley debuted last week on Dynamite following the main event match between Swerve and Shelton Benjamin. Upon his arrival, he attacked the former AEW World Champion and sent a massive message to the entire roster that one of the most dominant factions in the world was now in full effect.
Tonight, MVP officially introduced his business partners. After introducing Shelton, he introduced AEW to Bobby Lashley, calling him "The All Mighty." This was a nickname he's had since his time with WWE, and it seems that he will still be known as the same in the Tony Khan-led promotion.
They then talked about the offers they had been handing out to certain members of the roster. MVP talked about how these were their golden tickets to success, but should they turn them down, they could receive the same fate as Swerve Strickland did last week.
The group was eventually confronted by Swerve Strickland, who had a chain in hand. He had to be held back by several referees for things not to escalate.
