Vince Russo To Write All Future TNA shows

Recommended Posts

Guest Jobber of the Week

411. Duh.

 

The current plan is to have Vince Russo fully write each NWA:TNA PPV script, with the hopes that he can recapture the magic he had in WWE in the late 90s.

 

Jerry Jarrett will, however, have final say over the scripts, and will make sure there are things that make sense within the NWA:TNA universe. One thing that Jarrett is adamant about is that all backstage skits must have an explanation as to why a camera is there, such as with a Goldy Locks interview.

 

The July 10th edition of NWA:TNA was mostly written by Jarrett, but starting with the July 17th edition, the shows will be scripted by Russo.

why is russo one of the worst writers ever? He is good if he is in a controlled environment like with vince in the wwf. When he makes all the calls he is way over the top and shit gets fucked. All he needs is a leash

I trust Jerry/Russo more than Vince/Steph because they aren't blood. Jerry probably won't be as blind as McMahon if he notices something going too far away from where he wants to be or go.

yeah...you two are right.

 

But the difference between the JJ penned week 4...and the Russo penned week 5 scares me.

dude week 5 was just as good. I laughed my ass off during the shamrock interview, and I liked hall attacking jj and kk in the back. Also the matches were good minus the midget and ladder match. I can't complain about nwa, not that I would though. I like to try to stay positive about wrestling in general. If you don't, you get the people on this board who I don't like very much. (You know who)

He did do some things well.

 

The Shamrock thing was GOLD.

 

And he is the best at doing what the promotion need most right now...character development.

 

So maybe he'll be good.

 

BUT NO MORE MASTRUBATING MIDGETS!!!!!

the midgets aren't Russo's fault.

 

They were on week 1 too.

 

but they weren't mastrubating.

Russo is a big reason why TNA will fail.

 

TNA cannot succeed if they are WWE-lite.

 

Plain and simple.

Jerry said in some interview that he is involved in some legal problems and that is one of the reasons for Russo getting more duties. It could be worse, at least Bob Ryder isn't writing the show

Y'know, the thing that scares me about masturbating midgets more than anything is that Jarrett actually must have read this in the script and said "Good show, old chap, keep it coming" to Russo. What sort of balls would it take to turn something like that in, anyways? This guy, he was a top writer when the WWF got mega-popular, he's still semi-respected, and masturbating midgets is his big contribution? Why not have someone's little brother write the show instead? Jesus Christ, does Russo really think that masturbating midgets will be to TNA what the NWO was to WCW? Their "edgy angle" that'll get them the drop on the stagnant WWE? What. The. Fuck.

 

All I know is I will be completely furious if I see A.J. Styles or Jerry Lynn fucking a pie or something of that ilk this week. I can deal with Russo's other petty idiocies, but if Lynn/Styles gets screwed up, I will never order a TNA PPV again, plain and simple.

 

What happened to Russo being done with the business, anyways? Didn't he say after WCW that he was done forever? Why won't he just stay gone, goddammit?

Oh Jesus..

 

You have me picturing Russo walking through a room of midgets pounding away and announcing, "THIS IS THE FUTURE!" :lol: :lol:

It'll probably be alright, but short.

As long as the top guys aren't doing that...fine by me. He's giving the undercard guys something to do. Was the midget thing weird? Yeah, but like I said, as long as that doesn't get anywhere near their main wrestlers.

Well from that interview bps(who else concerning nwatna) posted it doesn't sound like Jerry Jarret will put up with too much concerning women and sex so that's good. Also in that interview Jerry also said Russo is great because he comes up with alot of ideas and gives options for each one.

 

So it sounds like Jerry will let him do his thing but will also keep him on a short leash. So as long as Jerry doesn't become an absentee owner and keeps a close eye on Russo it will help them more then hurt them.

 

HOWEVER if we start hearing about Russo not having to answer to Jerry then we should be very concerned.

this news actually makes me happy and the reason for that is that vince russo is really behind the x division and wants to see it succeed. the shows will get a lot more sexually charged but if the action in the ring can keep up with the action outside, this could be a good thing.

He named his promotion "TNA" and hired a former porn star. I mean, cmon.

I never said that Jerry Jarrett was a mormon. Just because he may have standards concerning sex and the use of women doesn't mean he has to be totally anti sex and demanding that all women be in dresses that go down to their ankles.

 

Besides hiring a porn star isn't some big immoral thing. If she starts having sex on camera that's different.

I don't have a problem with it. I was just trying to point it out.

 

I don't mind the ladies matches yet. I didn't even mind the lapdance angle or anything. The ladies dancing in cages is kinda sleazy, but anyway...

 

I just want less eye-popping risque absurdity, in the vein of Mae Young and, yes, masturbating midgets.

Oh i don't care either i was just repeating what JJ Senior had said in that interview

 

I'd rather they drop anything involving women outside of managing and midgets.

 

Not that i have anything against women wrestlers it's just that they don't have any actual women wrestlers in NWA TNA. Well some of them are trained enough to take bumps but not enough to be wrestling matches.
