5 Ups And 7 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (July 13)
3. Ivar The Ladies’ Man
During the Street Profits and Viking Raiders’ vignette rivalry, one ongoing theme was that bearded warrior Ivar was a ladies’ man. It was a silly little joke, but it was fine for what it was.
But Monday, we got a callback to that gag in a way that worked pretty well. Andrade & Angel Garza (& Zelina Vega) were doing an interview with Charly Caruso, and Angel was doing his usual flirtation routine with her, when the Viking Raiders showed up to verbally spar.
Caruso became distracted looking at Ivar, who snatched Garza’s rose and gave it to Charlie, causing her to swoon even more. At that point, Angel looked like someone had kicked his puppy. For a guy who calls himself the lothario of Raw, it had to be demoralizing to see a bearded Viking get more attention from a woman he’s wooed for months.
Of course, Garza got the last laugh, powerbombing Ivar for the win in their tag team elimination match later on.
