Getting into a discussion of Smackdown Live, Russo says he couldn’t comprehend Rusev stomping on Halloween candy. He says that this is something that would happen on a children’s show but the problem with it in this case is Smackdown airs at 9 PM at night, so young kids are already in bed. Bolin says there’s always room for comedy in wrestling but your badass characters should never be involved in it.
Bolin thinks there’s too much good talent out there to be wasting time and money on Baron Corbin. He believes there are multiple other Superstars who are more deserving of the television time that Corbin has been given, and he thinks that finally needs to stop.
Lane points out that of all the bad things WWE has been doing lately, the fact that they’ve killed the WWE Title is downright unacceptable. Jinder Mahal and the Title have continuously been relegated to secondary storylines and Smackdown Live Superstars don’t even care about fighting for it anymore.
That sums up today’s episode of Vince Russo’s The Brand. You can listen to the show yourself anytime here, and I’ll catch ya tomorrow for another recap!
