Vince Russo wasn't happy with Rhea Ripley and Raquel Rodriguez being absent from WWE RAW
On last week's episode of Monday Night RAW, Rhea Ripley and Raquel Rodriguez were attacked by the returning Nia Jax.
Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW, Vince Russo claimed that he wasn't happy with Ripley and Rodriguez both being absent from this week's show. He said:
"It's such a huge problem. Every time somebody gets a boo-boo, they're off TV. It never used to be that way." Russo continued, "Unless it was a serious, serious, serious, hospital stay situation, the guys were on TV when they got hurt. You just wrote around the injury. This is such a mess, bro."
He further added:
"People are dropping like flies. I don't know if it's because they don't know how to work or what. But every week, somebody is dropping like flies, and then they just disappear. They just disappear off the show. Then we gotta bring them back, and we gotta restart them. And guess what, they get hurt again."
In recent weeks, Ripley successfully defended the Women's World Championship twice against Raquel. Her next title defense could be against Nia Jax.
