Former WWE head writer Vince Russo was confused about how the creative team booked Gunther and Jey Uso this week. The two stars were on RAW and cut promos in two separate segments.
During his promo at the start of the show, The Ring General vowed to defeat his challenger at The Show of Shows. Later, Jey Uso also showed up and addressed the crowd. He pointed out that he had turned the tables on the champ. The 39-year-old declared that he would win the title and bring YEETMania to WrestleMania.
This week on Legion of RAW, Russo blasted Michael Cole for behaving ridiculously during Jey Uso's segment. The veteran writer also questioned the creative team's decision to have Gunther and Jey do their promos in separate segments. He felt this highlighted the lack of effort that went into writing these shows on a weekly basis.
"Then you've got freaking Michael Cole acting like a total mark with Jey Uso out there. It's so cringe man. It's so cringe. Then you got Gunther and Jey Uso in the same building cutting separate promos, and they don't even cross paths. Can you image?" He continued, "It's unbelieveable. The lack of effort and the lack of caring is just unbelievable to me, man." [From 9:57 onwards]
Gunther and Jey Uso have had a very personal rivalry on the Road to WrestleMania 41. They will collide at The Show of Shows this weekend.
