      I hated Russo's booking and hate having to defend him but (a) the website is paying him and (b) I think (key word!) that Russo is just trying to sink into a heel persona. It's phony, like his booking, but I won't fault him for doing it since he's getting paid.

      @@manuelper Kind of just reinforces Cornette's point though that Russo will say anything as long as he can draw another check from the wrestling business. It's funny how Russo claims to always be damaged and victimized by this business, yet he's constantly clamoring to get back into it, and this is the only way how he can since no halfway reputable promotion-or AEW-will answer his calls.

Then the Macho Man ran down to the ring to Slam Andre, but before he could Elizabeth grabbed Andre and Slammed him. Bobby The Brain Heenan was so mad he then slammed Andre. At that point Vince Russo descended from the rafters to the theme "Sexy Boy" and slammed Andre. He grabbed the microphone and said "Wooooo, if you smell what the crock is smoking."

    I remember the domestic abuse portion. It was after Chaz dropped the Beaver Cleavage gimmick and was going by Chaz. IIRC, it played out on Sunday Night Heat but the one who was the mom, I think was Marianna, claimed Chaz had beaten her up. The wrestlers wanted nothing to do with Chaz and this went on for weeks until Thrasher returned and played a GTV video of Marianna admitting she made the whole thing up and (I might be misremembering) putting makeup on to show bruises from Chaz.

    BTW, Wrestlecrap was started by an indie manager known as "R.D. Reynolds" and has been around for 22 years and most of the site's reviews line up pretty well with Jim's. For whatever reason, the Reynolds struck up a friendship with Russo (despite their differences in wrestling philosophies) and they get along great as long as they don't discuss wrestling.
    I personally would love to see Jim and Reynolds do a panel together at a fanfest.

    I like when Russo is all "You actually believed she's his mother? They're the same age, bro!" The truth is the WWF was so stupid at that point that my assumption was that no care was given in regards to the age of Beaver and his mother. I just figured they thought a walking incest joke was funny so they were going to put it out there regardless if it made sense. It's also funny that he's accusing us of being dumb for "falling for it" when the whole end game was apparently to fool the babyfaces. So the fans shouldn't be so stupid for falling for it but it's okay for the babyface to be that dumb? How does coming across as a moron help the babyface?

    Russo didn't make Stone Cold, The Rock, Shawn Michaels, or Undertaker... the TALENT made the Attitude era. He did help push a lot of mid card guys, but just as often he buried them with terrible ideas like this. Russo's innovation was to push storylines for everyone on the card. Problem is that leaves no time for any actual wrestling matches.

    • @troystaunton254
      @troystaunton254 Рік тому +11

      Yeah but you have to remember, russo doesn’t like wrestling. So wrestling on a wrestling show would be verboten in his eyes.
      I support having something for everyone on the roster especially in an international program being watched weekly, as you can use the mid carders with interesting angles to make it so that Austin or rock doesn’t have yo work 5 times a night 3 times a week. But the angles have to be not garbage.

    I remember in an interview one time Eric Bishoff said the Turner executives over seeing WCW told him when they asked him to come back that one of their issues was Vince Russo didn’t understand story telling. I think this “column,” backs that up.

    • @troystaunton254
      @troystaunton254 Рік тому +13

      100% I’ve watched a few interviews with bischoff, and he summarised what he was told by the turned execs as
      1. Russo has no long term story telling ability it’s just stuff happening.
      2. Everything is grimey and dirty there’s nothing clean or easy to digest.
      3. He can come up with a match or an incident but no know how or why or where to from there. (Which for mind ties into the no long term story telling)
      Bischoff summed it up as russo’s mind never developed past a 13 year old stealing his dads playboy and jerking off behind a shed while smoking a cigarette.
