Former WWE writer Vince Russo was not a fan of Randy Orton’s promo on RAW. Russo said that some responsibility behind the segment had to fall on Orton himself.

Orton’s face suffered burns last week after Alexa Bliss hit him with a fireball on RAW. Orton had opened this week’s RAW wearing a mask. We were informed that Orton had suffered from first degree burns. The promo surprisingly ended up with him saying that The Fiend had made Alexa Bliss throw the fireball. Which would prevent him from entering the Royal Rumble match.

On this week’s edition of SK Wrestling’s Legion of RAW, former WWE writer Vince Russo gave his take on Randy Orton’s promo on RAW. Russo said that he wasn’t a fan of the storyline going in the direction that the reason for Bliss’ attack was to stop Randy Orton from entering the Royal Rumble match.

“Some of this has to fall on the talent. When you’re Randy Orton and you got 20 years seniority and they ain’t going to do a damn thing if you open up your mouth and complain. They’re telling you there is no retribution whatsoever and you’re going to cut a promo about being in the Royal Rumble.”

Orton cut a promo saying that he blamed Alexa Bliss and The Fiend for his affliction. He added that the voices in his head have never been louder.

This took over his every thought in the same way his face was covered in a mask. Orton added that Alexa Bliss had repaid the compassion he had shown her three weeks ago by burning him.
