This past Monday Triple H booked his first WWE RAW after Vince McMahon retired as head of WWE creative. The show was widely praised by many fans due to a lot of things being changed.
Fan-favorite Tommaso Ciampa becoming the #1 contender for the United States Championship was the most notable one. Also, WWE aired a video package about legendary United States Champions in WWE history which means The Game cares about mid-card titles, unlike Vince McMahon.
Many fans are satisfied with this past Monday Night RAW bookings. However, during an interview with Legion of RAW, former WWE writer Vince Russo gave his thoughts on Triple H’s creative decisions.
“If that is the reason, and you know, we see the two new girls coming out with Bayley, bro, they’re booking for the fans they already have. The hardcores and the marks are gonna go nuts,” said Russo. “Bro, as soon as I saw Rollins and Montez Ford, I’m like, ‘Okay, bro, this is 15 minutes and the marks going to go crazy over this and the casual fans are not going to give a cr*p.’ So yeah, I agree with you Chris but again, when you’re going after that mass audience that’s for all the wrong reasons bro.“
