"Now all of a sudden she's a Karen?" - Wrestling veteran disses WWE's creative direction with Chelsea Green and Sonya Deville (Exclusive)
Former WWE head writer Vince Russo recently spoke about Chelsea Green and Sonya Deville joining forces to form a new tag team.
This week on RAW, Chelsea Green approached WWE Official Adam Pearce backstage. She asked for a spot in the WrestleMania Women's Showcase tag team match and mentioned that she would team up with Sonya Deville. He gave the two ladies an opportunity, stating that if they could beat Candice LeRae and Mia Yim on RAW, they would punch their tickets to the Showcase of Immortals.
On the latest episode of Legion of RAW, Russo detailed that WWE pairing Chelsea Green and Sonya Deville seemed all too sudden.
He also questioned the lack of a backstory and wondered how Sonya suddenly changed her gimmick overnight and started complaining about things not going her way.
"We have Chelsea Green and Sonya Deville, now they're 'Karens?' Do they not know what a 'Karen' is? First of all, 'Karens' are not attractive. They're usually unattractive on the inside and out. Second of all, I've seen Deville on this show for at least three years. Now all of a sudden she's a 'Karen?' Come on guys, like that's what I'm talking about," Russo said. [From 7:50 - 8:32]
