Bobby Lashley in serious trouble just days ahead of AEW All Out 2025

The former WWE World Champion, Bobby Lashley has been announced for a troubling match next week amid his ongoing feud. It will be Bobby's first single encounter after several months.

At Forbidden Door 2025, Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin defended their AEW World Tag Team Championship against Brodido and FTR in a three-way tag match. Ricochet and the Gates of Agony showed up to take the Hurt Syndicate out of the match. This led to Bobby and Shelton losing their titles to Brodido without even getting pinned.

The Hurt Syndicate has been seeking retribution on Ricochet ever since Forbidden Door. Last Wednesday on Dynamite, Ricochet defeated Shelton Benjamin before the Gates of Agony and the Hurt Syndicate got into a massive brawl. Following the big brawl, a major announcement regarding a match next week has been made.

It was announced that Bobby Lashley will be up against Toa Liona of the Gates of Agony this Wednesday on the special September to Remember show. It will be Lashley's first singles match in AEW since January, and Bobby could also be in trouble as Toa Liona is a big and dangerous wrestler.

Bobby Lashley on kicking MJF out of The Hurt Syndicate

Earlier this year, MJF was on a pursuit to join The Hurt Syndicate. He finally joined the group after getting thumbs up from all the members and hung around them for weeks. However, Max got kicked out of the group last month by Bobby Lashley, and then the other members later.

Speaking on The F Y'all podcast, Lashley revealed the reason why he removed MJF from the Hurt Syndicate:

"With MJF, I gave the thumbs down. I gave the thumbs down because if I don't trust you, that's a big deal for me. And I didn't trust him bringing him in originally. And then since we've gotten in, I just kind of see that he is focused on his own path. So instead of having us stay with us and then now we're all moving in different directions, I was like, just go on your own path. Yeah. And then you go on your path and let us go on our path," Bobby said.

Moreover, The Hurt Syndicate is also slated for a trios match against Ricochet and the Gates of Agony at All Out 2025.
