"Lashley's downfall needs to be studied" - Fans brutally troll Hurt Syndicate after massive botch at recent AEW show

The Hurt Syndicate has been one of the most dominant tag teams AEW has to offer. They currently hold the AEW World Tag Team Championship and it doesn't seem like they will be losing the gold soon. After being tired of waiting for contenders, MVP recently laid out a challenge, which was answered by Mike Bailey, Kevin Knight, and Mascara Dorada.

MJF, Bobby Lashley, and Shelton Benjamin wrestled the trio at the recent Summer Blockbuster special episode. It was a great contest where the promising stars were elevated and showcased their immense talent. Despite their best efforts, The Hurt Syndicate emerged victorious in the end.

Unfortunately, a clip from the bout has been making the rounds on social media that has drawn some criticism. A series of botches occurred when Mike Bailey and Kevin Knight tried to establish control over Bobby and Shelton during the match.

​

Some fans felt bad for Bobby Lashley as he was the former WWE Champion in the global sports entertainment juggernaut while he had to take a beating from mid-card wrestlers from AEW. Several fans also criticized AEW for booking the Syndicate this weak. Many of them also criticized how AEW likes to practice matches before getting in the ring.

Take a look at some of the reactions below:
