Following King Corbin’s loss to Drew McIntyre on WWE RAW, there is no obstacle between the WWE title match between Champion Bobby Lashley and him. Lashley’s “boss” and friend MVP proclaimed him as “unbeatable.”

In a backstage interview, Lashley was asked how confident he feels about his chances at Mania. Before he could answer, MVP took the lead as he felt disrespected.

How dare you disrespect the WWE Champion by asking him about confidence? What is wrong with you?” MVP ranted. “This is Bobby Lashley, I have known this man for a number of years, I’ve trained with him, I have been up and down the roads with him.”

However, MVP said he never saw the intensity in Lashley before. He alleged that the WWE title does “something” to people. “It changes you, it does something to you internally. He(Lashley) was a bad man before, but what he is now is unbeatable.”

MVP praised Drew McIntyre for his title run

As many believe, Drew McIntyre won and carried the WWE title amidst very tough times. He made it credible amidst the pandemic. Hence, MVP did not shy away from giving credit where it was due.

Now I give Drew McIntyre all the respect he deserves. He in his own right is a very bad man, very dangerous, and he was one of the most credible champions this company has ever seen. (But) that was then, this is now.”

Since the Hurt Business broke up, following Cedric Alexander and Shelton Benjamin’s title loss, MVP and Lashley are in a tough spot. The match at WrestleMania is not only a match for the belt but also a match for pride.

According to reports from Fightful Select, it was Vince McMahon‘s idea to break up the group. Although MVP and Lashley tried to talk McMahon out of it, it did not come to fruition.
