WWE Cancels Advertised Raw Segment?

The Hurt Business were present on last night's WWE Raw, but not as advertised...

A pre-advertised WWE Raw segment was seemingly pulled from last night's show, as the promotion failed to deliver Bobby Lashley's promised All Mighty Championship Celebration.

The segment simply did not happen. There's currently no word on why, exactly, WWE didn't go ahead with it, though Lashley and The Hurt Business ended up being all over the show regardless.

Lashley's first contribution was a to-the-point backstage promo in which he stated that nobody was going to take the WWE Title from him after waiting 16 years to get his hands on it. The All Mighty then defeated The Miz in a rematch of last week's title fight, battering him for close to 10 minutes before ending things with the Hurt Lock.

Bobby's Hurt Business stablemates Shelton Benjamin and Cedric Alexander, who would have presumably been involved in any celebration angle, hit the ring for the former's match with Xavier Woods later on. Xavier's distraction-assisted victory bought The New Day a shot at Benjamin and Alexander's Raw Tag Team Titles for next week's show.

Who Lashley will defend the WWE Championship against at Fastlane 2021 and WrestleMania 37 remains to be seen.
