The team of Bobby Lashley and Mickie James – or country dominance – saw off the challenge of Natalya and Bobby Roode to progress in the second season of the Mixed Match Challenge.
Expectedly, when they were interviewed backstage about their thoughts, it was Lashley’s spokesperson and manager Lio Rush who had the most to say.

The team of Rusev and Lana, on the other hand, weren’t as lucky as they lost out to Miz and Asuka to crash out of the tournament. And after losing his WWE World Cup qualiyfing match to the Miz earlier on SmackDown 1000 as well, Rusev wasn’t in the best of moods and gave a bizarre interview, to say the least.
