Vince Russo is an evil and despicable human being, he's rotten, he's a piece of dogshit. Dixie Carter kept him employed despite the fact Spike ordered her not to. Now Russo repays her kindness this way? f*** him. He doesn't deserve to critizice TNA because the moron Dixie always treated him right, she allowed him to destroy the company.
The silver lining in all of this, is that Russo will never write for a wrestling company in his life, this time he can't run from karma.

He was throwing her under the bus even before she brought him back the last time.

that's what the problem for him was, expecting Dixie to have finally figured out how to use email correctly.

I didn't read anything but what Zombie mod quoted above... becaues I don't give a crap what Russo has to say about anything.
But... from that quote his whole problem seems to boil down to... "they finally realized that I was actively harming the product"

WZ has learned from TNA sources and wrestlers that many talents, some veterans, are fearing the company is approaching its final television taping dates.
It was previously reported TNA would be filming from July 22-29 in Orlando for television. An email from TNA officials sent to talents reveals two weeks worth of television will be filmed on many of the July dates.
This, along with the upcoming content filmed this week heading into Slammiversary, would generate enough first-run content to take TNA Impact Wrestling into September. This is the same month Destination America can activate a contract clause ceasing their agreement with TNA Wrestling. Ever since signing Ring of Honor was added to Destination America, the subject of the network dropping TNA has become a hot topic scenario from people both in and out of the company.
On top of the unusual amount of filming being done at the end of July, comes the problems with payment, communication and treatment.
Previously, talents were once again not paid when expected. This past Friday, an internal email was sent out promising late payments would be sent via FedEx overnight. This did happen, but is not the first time the roster has dealt with this.
The mass quantity of July dates have talents worried they won’t get paid for at least a month following the tapings, which is considered unacceptable considering the company has far fewer expenses now that they aren’t touring much anymore. The add-on of a week of dates also forced many talents to cancel previously scheduled independent bookings in which they would be paid in advance or on the night of.
As far as communication goes, emails sent to talents remain optimistic and claim the upcoming television dates are for domestic and international television. However, per our sources, many fear the writing is on the wall in regards to how much life is left in the TNA brand. It’s believed if the brand does get booted from Destination America, that they are damaged goods having left two networks in less than year, and don’t hold much hope for being picked up for a new television distribution deal.
We’re continuing to get more information on this story from sources, so expect more details and insight on a special Thursday evening video segment of Chair Shot Reality and on social media. source.Wrestlezone.com

Jarrett taking over TNA would merely reset it to around 2005.

If TNA really is ending, EC3 has to be the final World Heavyweight Champion.

Awfully nice of him to make it ALL ABOUT HIMSELF yet again, but he does raise points that everyone else has been raising for a while now. No one's held accountable, because Dixie won't even hold herself accountable. Everyone else gets blamed. Anyone can point out all the faults in the world about TNA, WWE, or any wrestling company. This forum is full of people that can do that just as good as Russo can. It's just that Russo isn't self-aware enough to realize that he was a big part of why they are in this position, and that if Dixie Carter was capable of holding people accountable, she would have fired Russo long before being forced to.

I can't hate Russo. Him coming on BewLegacys stream to help them raise money was great.

If TNA really is ending, EC3 has to be the final World Heavyweight Champion. What they could do, what would be a fun little angle, is if Destination America works with ROH to say, ECIII is the final champion, you bring him into ROH and ECIII beats Jay Lethal for the ROH World Title, unifying the two and being the new top heel in the company. This way, you have connected TV on Destination America, and Jay Lethal gets sent off to WWE potentially with the focus on a new guy for ROH. This of course hinges on TNA going under.

The bad news for talent is that DA is NOT canceling Impact, so they will still be working for the company and will continue to receive late pay.

Honestly, given all the stories going around about that, I'd be telling them tonight not to expect me the other six days if I didn't go back to the hotel this evening with a paycheck.
