#4 The Hurt Business reigns supreme on WWE RAW

While MVP has gotten into the race for the WWE United States Championship and will take on Apollo Crews on Sunday for the title, former United States Champions Ricochet and Bobby Lashley competed in a match this week on RAW.

While The One and Only started well, the heel was able to trip him and sent him into the guardrail. From there on, The All Mighty unleashed his strength on Ricochet as he struggled to get back into the match.

An enzuigiri got Ricochet back into the match and he hit a standing shooting star press to attempt a pin. He carried on the momentum with a few more moves until Lashley locked in the Full Nelson to pick up the victory on RAW.

Ricochet’s partner Cedric Alexander tried to make the save but fell for the lethal hold himself that made him pass out too.

Lashley and MVP stood tall to close out the segment as WWE managed to build well towards the United States Championship match for Sunday without even getting the Champion and the challenger involved.

It’s unfortunate that Ricochet is still stuck in some bad bookings, and the man who was carrying WWE NXT at one point, and really needs to get back some momentum on WWE RAW.
