7 WWE Superstars who have excelled in the era with no crowds

#2 WWE Superstar who has excelled in the era with no crowds - Bobby Lashley

The Hurt Business has been a huge success during the no-crowd days.

When Lashley came back to WWE a couple of years ago, it was as a smiling juggernaut. He was still physically imposing but had trouble connecting with the WWE Universe. Promos were never Lashley's strong suit but once he was paired with MVP midway through 2020, he really took off.

He had his first shots at the WWE Championship after Money in the Bank last year and his bouts with McIntyre were physical and hard-hitting. As the year went on after those title shots during the no-crowd era, Lashley became more and more dominant. The dominance resulted in the US title and a dominant reign.

Lashley would win the United States Championship at Payback at the end of August. With MVP as his mouthpiece, all Lashley had to do was destroy people in the ring. That is exactly what the Almighty has done during the last year and a half. He would drop the belt to Riddle at Elimination Chamber but was not pinned in the affair.

That was done to keep Lashley looking strong. The Almighty was instrumental in Miz becoming a two-time WWE champ and he demanded a shot after the Miz cashed in his briefcase. Once he did, however, the writing was on the wall. The Miz tried to weasel out of giving Lashley a shot, but it was evident that his days were numbered. Lashley would destroy the Miz en route to winning his first WWE Championship.

It was apparent in the ensuing celebration that Lashley was holding back tears after his enormous win. The Hurt Business was formed during the no-crowd era and it has been one of the focal points of RAW and the WWE during that time. Lashley has been the centerpiece and is having the best run of his career. He certainly more than deserves it.
