This past Monday on the February 20 edition of Raw, we bore witness to the inherent wickedness of Eve Torres.
As she told the Bella twins at the outset of the show, she never had any intention of pursuing an intimate relationship with “The Broski.”
To make matters worse, she duped Zack Ryder into falling for her for the sole purpose of “using” him.
Suffice it to say, Eve’s abrupt heel turn shed light on her sociopathic tendencies and total disregard for all that Ryder had done for her.
