On a recent edition of his “BroDown” podcast, Vince Russo took aim at a SmackDown segment featuring Damian Priest and LA Knight. He said,
“That exchange between LA Knight and Priest, everything’s just coming off as just so scripted. It’s just coming off so scripted that you’re not feeling natural, bro. Remember that was …. that was the heat they always put on Vince, ‘Everything is so scripted and now under Triple H, you’re going to have the freedom.'”
The segment between Priest and Knight saw the pair agree to stay out of each other’s way in their tag team match, where they beat Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu.
After the match, the pair brawled. Priest, Knight, and Drew McIntyre will challenge Fatu for the U.S. Title at Backlash.
Russo also took issue with Zelina Vega’s backstage segment on SmackDown, adding that it sounded like the Women’s U.S. Champion was reading off a cue card.
Vega would interrupt Chelsea Green’s memorial to her Women’s U.S. Title reign before Alba Fyre gave a ‘Eulogirly’ which Green described as a eulogy for girlies.
