WWE RAW commentator Corey Graves was recently witnessed berating the WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Sasha Banks and Naomi on RAW. While he received a lot of backlash, the former WWE and WCW writer noted it is an example of WWE being petty and behaving like children.
Vince Russo opens up on the matter
The controversy sparked when the reigning Women’s Tag Team Champions Banks and Naomi walked out of the show this week. The duo was advertised to compete in a six-pack challenge to determine the next number one contender for the RAW Women’s Championship. But it was later announced that the pair had left the arena. Corey Graves also mentioned on commentary that “Boss ‘n’ Glow” had a meltdown and they ‘unprofessionally’ and ‘unceremoniously’ walked out.
On the latest episode of Sportskeeda Wrestling’s Legion of RAW, Vince Russo mentioned that WWE often chooses the path of pettiness when things don’t go well with their stars. He recalled a show two weeks after Survivor Series 1997 where the company was still burying Bret Hart after the Montreal Screwjob incident:
“I just reviewed an hour of the Attitude Era today,” said Russo. “It is two weeks after the Survivor Series and they are still burying Bret. Like two weeks after the event. Bro, that’s what they do. They’re like children. They’re like little children and little babies. That’s what they do. Petty.”
