Business is better than ever for The Hurt Business.
The dominant faction acquired championship gold at WWE Payback as Bobby Lashley defeated Apollo Crews for the United States Title, winning the coveted prize for the second time and first time in more than 14 years.
Apollo Crews looks to turn the tables against The All Mighty with an aerial attack on the imposing challenger. Catch WWE action on WWE Network, FOX, USA Network, Sony India and more.
The outlook wasn't as rosy at the beginning for Lashley, who was seemingly overwhelmed at times with Crews' uncanny athleticism, including a spectacular moonsault off the apron to the outside. But the presence of The Hurt Business at ringside was quickly felt, as they provided a distraction that let Lashley take advantage.
The All Mighty scored a pivotal blow when he put the champion down with a massive spinebuster that seemed to make Crews kiss the rafters of the WWE Thunderdome. Locked in the Full Nelson afterward, Crews had no option but to tap out to the feared hold.
After the bout, Crews attacked Lashley before being pulled off of the new titleholder by MVP and Benjamin. As Crews made his exit, he vowed to reclaim the United States Championship.
