Vince Russo joins 1wrestling...

sexual names (Hugh E Rection anyone?)

Hugh G Rection actually, that WOULD have sounded out of place... he was in a stable called the Misfits for crying out loud, misfits in WCW, who'd have thunk it!

Are you defending him calling Bill Demott HUGH G RECTION?

Jesus Cristo, niko, it's called PROGRESSION, so stop REGRESSING.

 

All you do is talk about how bad Russo's WCW was, or Russo's WWF angles were. You stay blind to the fact that like him or not, he's done quite well for himself in NWA:TNA, and has ADMITTED MISTAKES. You seem to refuse to enjoy TNA simply because of Russo's involvement, when he's not even the sole booker for that company! Also keep in mind that for us to critique WWE hear, it's OK, but heaven forbid someone you don't like does so, and you pounce on the guy because of some underlying vendetta. You act like Vince Russo pissed in your lemonade and set your house ablaze around here, both in the WWE and TNA folders. I'm not saying you have to like the guy, because you've got freedom of opinion. However, you come off as so biased against him that it gets annoying, especially to people who can see that for his faults, he's done a lot right. The man took bottom of the barrell stars and newcomers (Hugh Morrus, Jindrak/O'Haire, Disco Inferno, Mike Sanders) and made them stars. He took overlooked indy stars Christopher Daniels, Low Ki and Elix Skipper and made them the top heel team in TNA EVER. Russo has dropped the ball, but when he runs with it, he scores. Stop being a damn pessimist and give the guy at least a little credit, because you know what, at least he does what WWE isn't doing with young talent...he TRIES.

Russo made them stars? Not one of them EVER EVER became any kind of a draw - not at all. He basically killed the foundation of WCW, the fact it had credible titles and you could count on seeing good matches. And your argument seems to be that he doesn't have a lot of power in TNA, BUT he is totally responsible for the pushes those guys are getting in TNA. Everybody's defense of Russo is that when we talk about bad things, OH THAT WAS ALL IN THE PAST AND HE HAD OTHER FORCES WORKING AGAINST HIM but all the good things are 100% DUE TO RUSSO COMPLETELY!

 

I've seen what Russo can do, and the more power he has, the worse the shows are. And he is just as bad as any of the McMahons are at pushing himself and making sure he is in the angles. And no matter what you ever tell me, the fact there is no more WCW on tv is something Russo had a big hand in, and for that I hope he rots.

just for the record, the booking in TNA has been horrid, even worse than WWE lately
