Guest buffybeast Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 Gee whiz, you people are acting like this is the end of the world as we know it. Look, I wasn't Russo's biggest fan. But I have to admit that the WWF from 1997-99 was entertaining. And the one thing Russo did was write for everyone, not just the main eventers. Under Russo's tuttelage, everyone in WWF had a storyline or angle. And like someone said, under the guidance of Vince, his writing should not be horrendous the way it was in WCW. Heck, maybe Russo will convince Vince to push Albert.
Guest Frankie Williams Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 Now I know why the WWF is promoting David Arquettes new movie!!!
Guest NaturalBornThriller4:20 Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 Heck, maybe Russo will convince Vince to push Albert. You-should-be-hung-for-a-comment-like-that.
Guest Invader3k Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 OK, I hate Russo as much as the next guy...but hopefully Vince McMahon will reign in his really stupid ideas, and this won't be a complete disaster like his total joke run as WCW creative head was.
Guest jimmy no nose Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 Actually, the word is hanged, not hung. If you people really didn't want Russo back, all you had to do was pay everyone you know to watch the WWF. Russo said many times that he would only come back if the WWF was in trouble and they needed some help. That's also the way the WWF felt about bringing him back.
Guest RickyChosyu Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 Actually, the word is hanged, not hung.

Russo said many times that he would only come back if the WWF was in trouble and they needed some help. That's also the way the WWF felt about bringing him back. It's his ideas that got them there. They've been trying to pitch his crash TV to grab ratings ever since they went down, and it's done nothing but kill the ratings more. What good could bringing in the man himself do?
Guest Ripper Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 Yeah, we all know what a ratings grabber WCW was before Russo got there. Lets face it, Russo didn't kill WCW, it was halfway buried when he got there. he just helped top it off.
Guest Anglesault Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 Oh My fucking God. WWF Death Pool: October 2002, While fans tune out as Shawn O'Haire and Rey Mysterio chase WWF champion HHH.
Guest caboose Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 What the hell is going to go down with Hogan and Russo now? At least I know Booker will get pushed now. Goodbye Nash!
Guest BlackRainbow1025 Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 I don't care much for Russo either. It's not the end though. I mean, there are two seperate creative teams right? One for Smackdown! (Heyman) and one for RAW (Gershwitz or something like that). I would imagine that Russo will be doing RAW now. OBVIOUSLY RAW needs help the most. The writing is just pure shit on RAW. I don't think it could get much worse under Russo, especially with Vinnie Mac running things.
Guest Austin3164life Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 Here's hoping the clique gets one big depush......
Guest Nezbyte Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 I think Russo should book RAW and give SD! to Heyman. Give them full control and every 3 months compare. Anyone like that idea?
Guest HHH's 'Roid Needle Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 I just had an idea told to me. Its not good. Russo is head of the writing team, right? That frees up Stephanie, right? Uh-oh....
Guest FeArHaVoC Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 I have never seen a Thread get this many Replies in this short of period of time since coming here, LoL.
Guest FeArHaVoC Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 I just had an idea told to me. Its not good. Russo is head of the writing team, right? That frees up Stephanie, right? Uh-oh.... I have No problem seeing Steph on TV, just as long as the whole damn show doesn't revolve around her.
Guest Sandman9000 Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 (In the voice of a stewardess) "Ladies and gentlemen, if you look out the window to your left, you will see the WWE management and booking staffs, all huddled around a large red button. That button is the panic button, and the respective staffs are pounding it madly." Voice-"The button just broke!" "Oh, shit. They just broke the panic button. Ladies and gentlemen, i do suggest running for your lives at this point. With the panic button broken, there is no clue what kind of crap could come out of it next." Russo-"Hi, everybody! I'm back! Incest angles for everyone!" "Ah fuck, I'm outta here" ::People run for their lives::
Guest Ripper Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 Stephanie=Head of writing staff- basically calls and preisdes over meetings Vince Russo=Head writer-actually writes stuff theres a difference.
Guest jama Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 I remember russo having good shows in wcw expecially with Jonny ace ( I don't remeber if that is the guy correct name). Anyway, this guy booked the matches and russo would book the angles and the shows were really good. Russo is a guy who as alot of ideas some are stupid and some are really good if haymen or vince filter out the bad stuff we could have some good shows. Before russo left wwf the under card had alot of character I was actually interested in Holly at one time, so I say lets give the guy a chance. Yea also BENOIT left because russo was going to be replaced, I hope russo pays the guy back for his loyalty.
Guest buffybeast Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 Heck, maybe Russo will convince Vince to push Albert. You-should-be-hung-for-a-comment-like-that. Ha, that was funny. You folks who are on a WWF death watch, please read the lastest earnings report from WWFE, Inc. They are still making money hand over fist. If they survived 1997, the only year in the company's existence where they reported a net loss of revenue, they will survive now.
Guest LesnarLunatic Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 Welcome back bad angles, boobies and short matches!
Guest jimmy no nose Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 Welcome back bad angles, boobies and short matches! What do you mean welcome back? When were they gone?
Guest BlackRainbow1025 Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 Welcome back? You act like this stuff left with Russo......hate to break it to you all, but it's just as bad without him. EDIT: Sorry Jimmy, didn't see that post.
Guest FeArHaVoC Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 Maybe Stacy will finally have her baby? GTV Returns!
Guest Frankie Williams Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 I cant wait for the first Mae Young on a pole match.
Guest LesnarLunatic Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 Welcome back bad angles, boobies and short matches! What do you mean welcome back? When were they gone? Well, they're the main thing on Raw now with Russo back! not like being the secondary thing in the last few years. Boobies never leave you
Guest LesnarLunatic Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 I cant wait for the first Mae Young on a pole match. Will she be on the pole, or impaled on it?
Guest notJames Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 I had always heard that Ed Ferrara was the more "prurient" of the duo. Considering his lascivious behaviour toward the "ladies" last nite on the NWA PPV (Disclaimer: I just read the results; I did not order the PPV. I repeat: I did not order the PPV/!), and his penchant for poking fun at former employees, maybe Russo's next run won't be so rife with crap... ... oh who am I kidding, it's Vince fucking Russo, come back to kill us all. R.I.P. WW_ We hardly knew ye.
Guest Shaved Bear Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 im waiting for the inevitable kurt angle hulk hogan wig on a pole match
Guest Sandman9000 Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 Benoit didn't leave WCW because Russo was gone. Benoit and co. left WCW because Kevin Sullivan was being placed in charge. And Benoit and Sullivan have major beef between each other, since Benoit stole Sullivan's wife from him! And a small bet here: which number will be higher before 2002 is over, the number of shoot angles/interviews or the number of times the Undisputed Title changes hands?
Guest J*ingus Posted June 20, 2002 Report Posted June 20, 2002 (sigh) Vince McMahon has officially lost his fucking mind.
