WWE Star Issues Bounty On Shelton Benjamin

You don’t hear about that very often. There are certainly angles that take place more than once in wrestling, but only after a long time has passed. That was the case with the bounty, as Harley Race offered thousands of dollars to anyone who would take out Ric Flair before Starrcade 1983. Triple H did the same thing with Goldberg in 2003, but now we are getting a slightly different version of the idea.

This week’s Monday Night Raw featured the return of the Hurt Business, as Cedric Alexander and Shelton Benjamin rejoined Bobby Lashley. The reformed team attempted to cost Big E. the WWE Title but the New Day made the save. WWE star Mia Yim has tweeted about the situation, offering any member of the New Day $20 to take out Benjamin. New Day has yet to respond to the offer.

The new day Vs hurt business…. I love it!!! Which one wanna take my $20 to take out Shelton?! @WWEBigE @AustinCreedWins @TrueKofi #WWERaw

This is a different one. Check out all three participants in action:

Mia Yim vs. Io Shirai – Women’s WarGames Advantage Ladder Match: WWE NXT, Nov. 13, 2019

The New Day vs. Bobby Lashley & MVP: Raw, July 5, 2021

Cedric Alexander joins The Hurt Business: Raw, September 7, 2020

Opinion: I’m not sure I saw this coming but it’s certainly something different. If nothing else, it is cool to see Yim getting to do something, as she has barely been a factor for several months now. Assuming there is no health issue, I have no idea why she is not back on WWE TV. It isn’t like the women’s divisions are currently overflowing with title worthy talent.

What do you think of Yim’s offer? How would a six man tag go between the teams? Let us know in the comments below.
