Bobby Lashley and the Hurt Syndicate are ready to take over AEW following the All Mighty’s first victory at one of the company’s pay-per-views. At AEW Full Gear, Lashley defeated Swerve Strickland via referee stoppage after trapping Swerve in the Hurt Lock. The win makes Lashley 2-0 in AEW after squashing opponents in a handicap match on Dynamite.
Speaking on the AEW Full Gear post-show media scrum, Lashley relished in his victory over the former AEW World Champion and promised big things to come.
“I think it was fantastic. The crowd here was amazing and I like the chant ‘We Hurt People.’ It’s good business. This group has been long overdue to start taking over and now that we’ve gotten to AEW it is time to take over. We need to start holding these titles hostage.”
The Hurt Syndicate has yet to hold gold in AEW since MVP’s arrival in September, but as Lashley made clear, he plans on changing this. Before Full Gear, the All Mighty told The Lame Guys that he plans to be in the AEW World Championship picture by Grand Slam in February 2025.
Lashley has reached the pinnacle as World Champion in WWE and TNA and now plans to add AEW to the list. Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest on Bobby Lashley and the Hurt Syndicate’s plans to ‘take over’ All Elite Wrestling.
