"We'll never ever know"- Wrestling veteran explains why Bobby Lashley wasn't booked well under Triple H (Exclusive)
AEW star MVP recently slammed WWE's Chief Content Officer, Triple H, over some of his booking decisions. MVP wasn't happy with how The Game booked talents of color and used the example of fellow All Elite Wrestling performer Bobby Lashley to explain his viewpoint. Vince Russo addressed the subject on a recent show.
The All Mighty has long been associated with MVP. Porter even helped The All Mighty win the WWE Title twice. The former United States Champion said that Lashley was a two-time world champion under Vince McMahon but was reduced to a mid-carder during Triple H's regime.
On a recent episode of Writing with Russo on Sportskeeda WrestleBinge, the former WWE writer said that we might never know what had happened between Triple H and Lashley. However, Russo felt that the Hall of Famer's booking of The All Mighty was seemingly influenced by their in-ring interactions.
"So who knows, I mean, it could have been something as simple as Bobby Lashley was stiff in a match, you know. Like we'll never ever ever know. But I'm just telling you, bro, because it happened with me at several different companies, man. You cannot be a former talent and book creative objectively," Russo said. [From 4:11 onwards]
Bobby Lashley left WWE following the expiry of his contract and joined MVP in AEW. The two reunited and created The Hurt Syndicate in the Jacksonville-based promotion. Lashley and Shelton Benjamin have gone on to become the AEW World Tag Team Champions.
