“Some scary men respected him a great deal!” - MVP is all praise for current WWE official

MVP recently praised a wrestling legend who is now a WWE official.

Norman Smiley is a wrestling legend who has wrestled for multiple promotions all over the world such as Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre, ECW, WCW, NWA, and WWE. He is also a former WCW Hardcore Champion and a former CMLL World Heavyweight Champion.

After retiring from the ring he joined WWE as a trainer for its developmental territory, Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW). Smiley then continued to work for NXT as a trainer after its inception.

Recently, current WWE Superstar MVP took to Twitter to praise the wrestling legend for introducing him to the Japanese style of wrestling.

"My friend and mentor. It was Norman who introduced me to Japanese wrestling and the 'shoot style' I fell in love with! Some scary men respected him a great deal! The absolute nicest person in the world!"

MVP provided an update on his potential pairing with Bobby Lashley

When WWE paired Bobby Lashley with MVP, it was almost a match made in heaven. They were able to form the stable The Hurt Business along with Shelton Benjamin and Cedric Alexander.

The group became instantly popular and even helped revive Cedric and Shelton's careers in the company when they won the tag team titles. However, their pairing didn't last long as the group quickly dissolved.

Since then fans have been asking for WWE to bring back The Hurt Business but it has fallen on deaf ears. Recently, one fan pointed out to the former United States Champion that he should team up with Lashley again. To this, Montel Vontavious Porter replied:

"EXACTLY!!! 😉👍🏽He said he didn't need me anymore...," he tweeted.

Now, MVP is busy managing Omos but it just hasn't been the same for him or Lashley as he hasn't been in many important storylines since his feud with Brock Lesnar.
