Bobby Lashley And The Hurt Business Reunite On Table For 3

WWE

In an appearance on WWE’s ‘Table for 3’ the Hurt Business (Bobby Lashley, Cedric Alexander and Shelton Benjamin) reunited to talk about their time together during the pandemic era.

Speaking particularly on the impact on the representation of Black athletes they were able to bring to WWE, Bobby Lashley said:

“We were able to give our audience a different look at Black talent. Because before it was always like you had to be militant or you had to be dancing or you had to be this or that, and I was like ‘Nah man.” All of us make good money, we carry ourselves in a certain way so we don’t have to be thugs or we don’t have to be this, we don’t have to be that. We can show kids, such as my son, and kids that are growing up that these are three Black athletes that are very talented, that can do anything else, but at the same time they’re not a thug, they’re not tap-dancing, they’re not doing any of this.”

Bobby also went on to describe the power of the total packaging for The Hurt Business and its positive representation, including the adorable and meaningful impact it had on children, saying:

“We’re dressing nice, and that was the one thing that we made sure that we did all the time is come as the character that we wanted to be which was professionals. That’s where the business part came into it. I loved everything about it, and I think it just transcended so many different areas that we got locked into, and I think so many people saw that. I got a couple of messages on Instagram They took pictures of their son. Like my son went in the closet and put on a little suit, asked for a suit, that’s incredible. That made me feel good. Like my son even said, he was like, “Man, I need to go get my suit and put it on.” And that made me feel good because that’s the representation we were showing.”If you use this transcription or any portion of it please credit WrestleTalk.com and link to this page.
