Shelton Benjamin wore his Covid-19 mask live on Raw and was reminded to take it off
Shelton Benjamin has been incredible in WWE since his return and is doing a fantastic job on Raw now.
He is part of the Hurt Business and won the Raw Tag Team titles with Cedric Alexander. There have been cracks in the team but The Business has come out in full force in support of Bobby Lashley.
However, there was one funny moment early on during the show. The Business came out during a segment and Shelton Benjamin was still wearing his Covid-19 mask on Raw.
WWE has been hit hard with a lot of Covid-19 positive results, such as Drew McIntyre, and they are trying to ensure the virus doesn’t spread much.
Benjamin took off his mask live on TV and even shared an expletive while the other members had a bit of a smirk.
Mia Yim, who is currently Reckoning on Retribution, had a hilarious take as she wanted Benjamin to keep his mask on.
Yim and Benjamin have a great relationship off screen as they are constantly making fun of each other. This might have been a bit of a mistake from Benjamin but worse was to follow for him later on.
Friction in dishing the business
Alexander and Benjamin have had problems between themselves and that was on show again. Matt Riddle had a chance to fight Bobby Lashley for the US title but he had to beat the other members of the Hurt Business in a gauntlet match.
It seemed that Benjamin had beaten Riddle but Alexander’s interference timing didn’t work out all that well.
MVP was also caught up in the confusion as he was defeated quickly before Alexander tried to save the team, but that didn’t work out either.
Riddle was attacked by Lashley at the end of the match but the problems are there for all to see.
