He'll create "Pixie"
An "Oklahoma" type mockery of Dixie Carter.

Find them someone who can do a better job on a consistent basis, who has experience writing wrestling TV for a major company and actually wants the job of head booker and isn't just stringing TNA along to keep his name out there. We've had threads on this before, Russo is still in a job as there are so few people out there with enough experience in the role who'd do a better job. I asked about this a while ago and people struggled to find any suggestions for a replacement and most of the people whose names did come up are either employed elsewhere or have been contacted and declined. As bad as Russo is, at least he's not booking himself as an on screen authority figure, booking matches from his office in the back of his flatbed pickup truck like one of their former head bookers. Hey, at least Dusty has charisma on-screen. |

Hey, at least Dusty has charisma on-screen. And I'm sure that sort of booking and charisma would have gone down a storm in Florida or Georgie in 1985 but in a company that had ambitions of being major national promotion in 2005 it was kind of bad. |

Guys...we're going about this the wrong way...Russo is known to make oddball storylines, and Dixie protects him.
We have to switch out the scripts with storylines taken from ROH. they'll make sense, Dixie will get pissed that ratings are improving, and fire Russo.

Poison the Impact Zone with Smilex. Dixie would only use that as proof that the fans are enjoying the product. |

Probably raping Dixie and Karen Jarrett, unfortunately, and then posting his hidden camera footage online.

Get in the ring with a mic and announce that Dixie smells bad "down there".

Poop his pants and proceed to chase Dixie around the halls of the backstage area with his underpants on a stick. Challenge Dixie to a drag race and then try to run her off the road. Make a storyline where Karen Jarrett gives birth to a hand, then tosses it to Dixie on camera. Do an angle where Dixie has to kiss his ass on TV. Have a skit where Fake Dixie gets part of her colon removed and they find all sorts of stuff.
All on one episode.

And I'm sure that sort of booking and charisma would have gone down a storm in Florida or Georgie in 1985 but in a company that had ambitions of being major national promotion in 2005 it was kind of bad. Since his TNA tenure he booked for the WWE revival of ECW which was very well received. Not to mention he is now in charge of booking for FCW which I've not personally seen but have heard mostly positive reviews. So it's not as if Dusty is a terrible booker. As for Russo, if Dixie is truly removed from power, he leaves on his own, or TNA shut's down are the only ways I see him going. |

Dusty's a good booker when he's doing straight-forward booking. Simple feuds and angles. It's when he tries to get "creative" that things fall apart. Or when he books himself as the greatest thing in the world, that's also when things die.

No, that wouldn't work... If anything, Dixie might love it. Hell, I'd tune in, if only to see how it would work out. A 4'11", 100-pound girl who lost her father during 9/11 but pretends to be an America-hating Mexican wins the belt from an Olympic Gold Medalist. A true underdog story. But since Russo is booking it, she'd get beaten and tortured and called a bitchy slut slutty bitch slut. On what grounds do you make that claim? Certainly not any of the booking of TNA in 2011. Going by this calendar year's track record, Rosita would carry the offense for 27 minutes straight, and then when Angle blocked a punch and then put her in a wristlock, there'd be five threads about the rampant misogyny and man-on-woman violence in pro wrestling. EDIT: in other words, I get the whole "Russo doesn't treat woman as sacrosanct, thus he's a misogynist" vibe, and I get how you are playing off that, but for rhetorical purposes, can you cite the last incident of man-on-woman violence in TNA *OR* WWE for that matter? EDIT x2: agreed that even if Rosita beat Angle clean after dominating the offense for 27 minutes, Madison Rayne or some other random Knockout would still come out and call her a "bitchy slut slutty bitch slut". |

Hire Vladimir Kozlov and proceed to spend the next few months re-enacting/ripping off A Serbian Film.

Should I be surprised that a lot of posters here immediately go to "rape" for this, or that they thing that would just simply get him fired?
