The buildup to the Day 1 pay-per-view between Becky Lynch and Liv Morgan continued this week.

Morgan and Lynch had a heated exchange of words before the number one contender attacked the RAW Women's Champion. Eventually, Becky took control of the situation, trapped Liv's arm on the steel steps and repeatedly stomped on it. She walked away with a smug look while Morgan lay writhing in pain.

However, former WWE head writer Vince Russo didn't seem impressed with Becky Lynch's gimmick. While speaking with Dr. Chris Featherstone on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW, he appeared dumbfounded about her wardrobe choice, among other things.

Here's what Russo said:

"Bro, what was she [Becky] wearing? I was trying to figure out the whole time what is she wearing? I had no idea."

He also pointed out a few glaring loopholes in the segment, like the copycat gimmick Becky Lynch adopted and how the steel steps suddenly seemed unmovable.

"Wasn't Shayna Baszler doing that arm gimmick to women about a month-and-a-half ago? They couldn't come up with something else? And could you explain this to me: Somehow Liv's arm is caught between the ring post and the steps, but we see them pick up the steps and move the steps a hundred times a show," Russo said. "But now, when somebody's got their arm caught, they can't move the steps?"

Becky Lynch's outfits have changed since her return to WWE

The Man returned to WWE after a hiatus at SummerSlam 2021 and won the women's championship in 26 seconds.

Since then, she has turned heel and filled her wardrobe with loud, bright outfits to go with her equally loud and polarizing character. Fans have drawn similarities between Becky Lynch and her real-life husband Seth Rollins when it comes to outrageous outfits, hairstyles, and promos.

This week, Becky's outfit that seemed like a weird crossover between an armored suit and a sports jersey or something else.

Meanwhile, her rivalry with Liv Morgan has been going on for some time. The last time the two superstars faced off in the ring, Becky Lynch sneaked in a win by grabbing the ropes, and Liv has been upset about it ever since.

How and when this rivalry ends remains to be seen.
