Russo wonders how many times WWE are going to bury Elias, who he considers to be one of the most talented guys on the roster. He suspects that Elias must have pissed someone off in the back because there’s no other explanation for the way they’ve been booking him lately.

Russo says he was beginning to enjoy Roman Reigns’ half-shoot promo on RAW, but then WWE had to switch back to wrestling mode with Joe interrupting him. He points out that Joe said nothing to put Reigns over, instead he completely buried him. He adds that WWE is not going to get Reigns over by having someone call him a failure over and over again.

Russo couldn’t believe that a random 6-man tag team match was the main event of RAW the night after WrestleMania, because that match meant absolutely nothing. Hamin adds that the end of RAW looked like “house show 101” with all the babyfaces hitting their finishing moves at the end, and that’s not a good thing.
