"Just because the pairing with me and Bobby, it was his idea. It was literally his project. It his little baby. It was his vision. But, to answer your question, on if I talked to Vince. Every week.

Which is crazy because I’ve heard people have been in the company for a year, two years, and they’ve never had a meeting with Vince. I was in his office every week, which was insane."

Lio Rush also revealed that Vince McMahon was the man behind the Bobby Lashley striking a pose with his rear end angle.

But, actually experiencing it live. Like, I’ll never forget when he explained the whole he wanted Bobby to start bending over and me pointing at his a**. Like, he reenacted it. He showed us what he wanted and it was so crazy."

Since Lio Rush's departure from WWE, Bobby Lashley has been a part of many storylines. After he was involved in a love triangle with Lana and Rusev, Bobby Lashley found an ally in MVP. Now, him along with MVP and Shelton Benjamin form The Hurt Business.
