Bobby Lashley on Idea of New Day, Kevin Knight, Swerve Strickland, or Will Ospreay Potentially Joining The Hurt Syndicate

A recent episode of The Danny Ocean Show podcast featured Bobby Lashley as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Lashley’s thoughts about the idea of New Day’s Xavier Woods & Kofi Kingston potentially joining his The Hurt Syndicate stable following their departures from WWE.

“Man, I tell you what, I think the problem that we have right now is that the Hurst Syndicate is too strong. If we bring those guys on there, we’d be just unstoppable. You know, I don’t think there’s any guess game in what’s going to happen next. I think Kofi and Woods, I think they’re just like amazing talent, and I think that anybody and everybody is going to throw in their money to try to pick those guys up. Hopefully they come to AEW, and if they do, we’ll try to get them if we can because I would love to be able to work with those guys. I like those guys. I’ve worked with those guys for years over at the other organization, and if they came over here and wanted to be a part of the Hearth Syndicate, it’s game on.”

Lashley also gave his thoughts about the idea of Kevin Knight, Swerve Strickland, or Will Ospreay also becoming potential members of The Hurt Syndicate in the future.

“We actually put something out there that we’re looking for a new member to come in there and and we can’t let so many names out there, but there’s been there’s some great talent on the AEW roster that could probably fit in with us really well uh… one of the guys , he’s wrestling actually tomorrow night in Kevin Knight, he’s going for a world title against Darby Allin which will be an incredible match as well that kid is on fire. Yes, he is young, he’s impressive. He looks great in the ring. I mean, he can do it all right now. So that’s one guy. Also, you know, we tried to kind of twist Swerve’s arm there for a little bit because I think Swerve has- he’s the most dangerous man in AEW and we’re the most dangerous faction in AEW. So there’s something there also that we were kind of looking at. But, I mean, there’s so many guys in the roster that could benefit from being with us. I mean, another person that’s there that’s getting pulled in a bunch of different angles right now is Will Ospreay. Will Ospreay has been pulled over to his group from Japan, but also Moxley and his guys have been pulling him. So I think we might need to throw our name in the hat there also and try to pull him out because he’s such a great talent. There’s so many great guys at AEW. So, I mean, the list can go on and on, and I can give you a reason why we want to pick up probably anyone on that roster.”
