Baszler and Rousey will be defending the titles against Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez at Money in the Bank on July 1st. Liv returned from injury on SmackDown and delivered a warning to Rousey and Baszler ahead of tonight's show as well.

Former WWE writer Vince Russo criticizes Ronda Rousey's booking on RAW

Wrestling veteran Vince Russo was unhappy following a recent edition of WWE RAW.

Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW show, Russo discussed Rousey and Baszler's victory over Kayden Carter and Katana Chance on the June 5th edition of the red brand.

Chance and Carter gave it everything they had, but ultimately it was not enough. Russo wondered why the company decided to present the match as competitive in the first place and suggested that it made the champions look weak.
