WWE Superstar Lio Rush was one of the members of the NXT army that invaded RAW a couple of weeks ago. The reigning Cruiserweight Champion recently took to Instagram to share a picture of the invasion and did not shy away from expressing his honest opinion about RAW and SmackDown.

In the post, Rush said that both Red and Blue brand 'suck' and the NXT army is ready for war. Not so surprisingly, he was immediately called out by fans who pointed out that Rush was previously a part of RAW.

Following that, a comment from one fan earned Rush's attention which read, "Wasn’t u on raw before u left tho."

The 'Man of the Hour' did not hold back and immediately responded by saying, "Hence, I left!" This comment indicated towards his caption in which he was calling out RAW for being below par.

Lio Rush on RAW

Last year, Rush arrived on the Red brand as the hype-man of Bobby Lashley. He was a wonderful spokesperson for the 'Almighty' Bobby Lashley and played his role to perfection.

Rush facilitated several storylines including Lashley that also featured notable heels such as Drew McIntyre and Baron Corbin.

However, he moved to NXT this year and became the WWE Cruiserweight Champion for the first time. Last week, he successfully defended his title against Angel Garza.

NXT and Survivor Series

The 2019 edition of Survivor Series will witness NXT competing against RAW and SmackDown in the battle of supremacy for the first time in WWE history. The Black and Gold brand has left no stone unturned in establishing their dominance over their counterparts.

Lio Rush obviously takes pride in being a part of the NXT army and is carrying the feud beyond the squared circle. Despite his time on Monday Night RAW, Rush is fearlessly voicing his opinion about the Red brand.
