Former WWE Superstar Cedric Alexander himself remains doubtful following MJF joining the Hurt Syndicate.
After weeks of MJF working to earn the trust of the faction’s members, Shelton Benjamin, MVP, and Bobby Lashley finally approved his membership. Despite their initial hesitation, they welcomed MJF into the faction.
Cedric Alexander, the original member of WWE’s Hurt Business. He responded to the news of the former AEW World Champion joining the faction. In an interview with Knockouts and 3 Counts, Cedric Alexander believes that MJF’s presence will create problems for the faction.
“My immediate thought when I — so, when I even realized MVP showed up (at) AEW and then Shelton (Benjamin), I was like, ‘Ah, man. I shouldn’t have re-signed that last contract, huh?’ That was something I had dreamed of doing so I was like, ‘Aw man, should I have really re-signed that last contract?’ I was like, ‘Ah, it’d be fun. It’ll work out.’ If it’s meant to be, it’s meant to be kind of thing and I kind of just be happy for the boys and they’re doing their thing at another place and I was just happy for ‘em, and then, oh! I get released. I’m like, ‘Oh! So maybe it is meant to be.”
“This is something that I can really look forward to,’ and then I realized that MJF is trying to make his way in there. I was like, ‘Alright, well…’ let it play out. Let it play out. I’m sure they’ll get tired of his shenanigans because he’s MJF. Of course, he’s gonna screw everything up. You know how he works. He’s gonna get the big head, like he always does… MVP trusts him for a little bit so I’m like, alright, cool, whatever… I don’t trust him.” [H/T: Fightful]
