AJ Styles was seen in different costumes on RAW as the former WWE Champion continued to keep his eyes on Dominik Mysterio. However, the antics did not sit well with Vince Russo, who called it silly.

AJ Styles has been chasing Dominik Mysterio over the last few weeks. However, the Judgment Day star managed to avoid the match, citing injury. Nonetheless, AJ continued to stalk Dirty Dom on WWE RAW last night, where the latter finally revealed that he's cleared for an in-ring return and will face him for the Intercontinental Championship at SummerSlam.

Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW, Vince Russo noted that everyone knew Dominik Mysterio was going to be cleared at some point in time and thus, it was silly of Styles to stalk him in different getups.

"The whole last three weeks, four weeks, whatever it is, this was the premise: AJ is keeping an eye on Dom until he gets cleared. That’s nothing. So now, this week, they had him in costume. ‘Oh, I am a valet, oh I am a Janitor, because I’m keeping my eye on you till you get cleared.’ We know eventually that he’s going to get cleared. So what is the point of three weeks of Aj doing this? What is the point of all that silliness?" [41:58 onwards]
