Former WWE head writer Vince Russo was amused by Alexa Bliss and Asuka's reactions after losing a semi-final bout in the Women's Tag Team tournament this week on RAW.
Alexa and Asuka were in the semi-finals of the Women's Tag Team tournament, facing off against Dakota Kai and IYO SKY. The four women put it all on the line for a place in the finals. However, Kai and SKY picked up the win when IYO blindsided the Empress of Tomorrow and pinned her.
Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW, Russo poked fun at Bliss and Asuka's expressions after the match. He questioned why Alexa was holding her partner's face after their loss. Russo mentioned that if he was in the back, he would have loved to hear the girls explain that segment.
"I want somebody to explain to me what this was. Bayley and the Sky sisters get the win, they leave, and here's the next shot. Alexa holding Asuka’s face! What is that? I swear to God. If I'm working there, I'm a producer and I’m looking at that and those girls come to the back, I am saying 'What was that?' Like exactly explain to me what that was just to hear how they sell it."
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
Former WWE employee continued:
"Bro, they don’t even know what they doing out there. They don’t know what they doing! What is this? Who does that? This isn't even for children. A child would say what are they doing?" (From 14:27 - 15:35)
