During a recent interview with Your Entertainment Escape, MVP discussed what’s next for The Hurt Syndicate in AEW. The wrestler also revealed that he and stablemate Shelton Benjamin recently signed contract extensions with AEW. Below are some highlights:

“I tell people all the time, and I’ve got the best job in the world. My friends beat people up, and I talk about it. I can’t, you know, like Sheldon and Bobby are legitimately two of my closest friends. We’re like brothers. We’re business partners. So, like, I just get to make a whole lot of money hanging out with my friends. Well, what what better job could you possibly have? You get paid a lot to just hang out with your friends. So, it’s uh it’s been awesome that we’ve been able to keep the uh keep the story going, so to speak. And AEW has been a great experience for us. You know, Tony Khan’s a great guy to work for, and we’re having a really good time.”

On What We Can Expect from The Hurt Syndicate in 2026

“See, if I tell you, then you’ll know what to expect if we don’t get down like that, man. You know, just know that the Her Syndicate is not going anywhere. As a matter of fact, Shelton and and I signed contract extensions not that long ago. So, uh, we’ll be around kicking ass and not even bothering to take names for some time to come. In terms of what we’ll be doing, we’ll just keep it simple. We will continue to hurt people.”

As noted, The Hurt Syndicate’s Bobby Lashley recently revealed that he’s now healed from injury and ready to compete for the AEW World Trios Titles with Benjamin and MVP once he returns to TV.
