The Hurt Business is way better than BDC. This factions gonna last a while

[@bigjohnsbreakfastlog5819]

And that's why WWE teasing them splitting up in the past few weeks just angers me. They're one of the best things WWE has made in years cause they are a group of men who are motivated by making statements and are willing to write checks that they can cash, since oftentimes, WWE creates stables either to crap on a bunch of jobbers or to push one wrestler & have the others serve as cannon fodder. They also put the right people into the group; guys who have distinct roles and personalities which could be shuffled for any match scenario.

[@swacfan100]

BDC was a talented faction, it just that ppl had given up on TNA. Sad bc it was a good idea, MVP cut one of the most IF NOT THE MOST controversial promos of all time. But H.B. should go further. They really need to give these guys ALL the belts. If they dont Hurt Business wont be any better.
