Ever since Bobby Lashley got rid of MVP, MVP has been on a road to find who to manage into greatness!

Tonight, AWE-MOS were in the ring addressing the WWE Universe about their undefeated streak when MVP appeared again, this time around, addressing Omos directly and offering him an opportunity to do business and ultimately turning him into a WWE Champion just like he lifted Bobby Lashley from scratch to all the way up.
