#5 MVP attempts yet another recruit

The right call by MVP

After the backstage segment on RAW featuring The IIconics and Ruby Riott, the camera shifted a few meters away, where Cedric Alexander was clutching his shoulder after losing his match while MVP was next to him.

Just as he did with Apollo Crews, MVP made a clear-cut attempt to recruit Cedric Alexander on RAW, provoking him by asking if he was happy being "Ricochet's sidekick" rather than finding success. MVP told Alexander that he had been noticing him for a while and had good things to say on RAW.

Unlike Apollo Crews, however, Cedric Alexander didn't seem to be as resistant about the idea. It's going to be interesting to see if they go in a direction where Cedric Alexander joins MVP and Bobby Lashley.

A heel turn might be what Cedric Alexander needs right now. Given that his pairing with Ricochet has been directionless, it would be best to utilize his talent some other way. Moreover, he's in desperate need of some serious character work, and MVP would serve as the perfect mouthpiece for him.
