Raw Live Raw thread, August 3rd, 2020: Asuka and Drew are out for retribution

[Chris]

That's a Russo special

 

[Showstopper]

Well, that was a waste.

 

[Evans]

They have a match on NXT Wednesday but they've called people up and had them wrestle their last NXT match later plenty of times so that doesn't really mean anything I don't think

Yeah, they've had NXT guys back on NXT to slowly phase 'em out

 

[DammitC]

but how was that a DQ

 

[Chris]

He really might be back

 

[Hidden Blaze]

Vince Russo clearly is back then yeah

 

[Sky]

Nonsensical finishes? Random turns? Brawl for All?

 

[Buffy]

What the fuck is that? How the hell was that a dq? Asuka didn't attack Sasha. So you are attacking other people outside and that counts as a dq? Stupid booking again.

 

[Hidden Blaze]

Raw gonna be must see TV then

 

[Chris]

I remember Russo would book countouts or DQs in triple threats sometimes which essentially just made it a no contest bc two people were still not involved in the finish lmao

 

[Evans]

THAT'S SOME GOOD SHIT

 

[Chris]

IN his defense the logical "no dqs or count outs" in multi-man matches had not been fully established yet, I honestly think video games helped them realize it's the only way to do the matches lmao

 

[Chris]

"What is the fate of Alexa Bliss" what a SmackDown promo lmao

 

[DammitC]

at least we got Asuka now atm

 

[Sky]

Russo booked a DQ in a cage match once
