I would love to see an episode of something like Law & Order written with Russo's booking ideology, one of the detectives would be a murderer for no reason but would be back on duty by the end of the episode like nothing has happened. Ice-T would turn up to duty and act like he did in Leprechaun in the hood because that's how Russo believes he should act and Richard Belzer would make constant digs at an unnamed orange man from Florida. He'd remove anything of interest from the female detectives and have them hate oneanother because he's hoping to talk them into catfighting or wrestling in mud (Something he tried to get Leilani Kai to do), and they would all be demoted, because Russo doesn't believe women are fit for leadership positions (Seriously, he said that). The captain would be played by the actual Dick Wolf (Man, what a name) and he would be a J. Jonah Jameson-like character, berating his underlings for not sticking to the script. The whole thing would be an unmitigated disaster that would never make it to air because of how immensely offensive stupid it all is, yet stupidity on that scale made it to air on both major wrestling shows,shows how great the self loathing from wrestling management is, I guess. f*** I would pay anything to see Russo book a script he wrote to a network executive just to see how much time the person would last before kicking him out. Actually in the timeline death of wcw with Kevin Sullivan, Kevin suspected that Russo booked stupid shit on purpose because he was pitching a sitcom about wrestling named "Rope Opera". The Turner exectutives didn't like it go figure He was supposedly pitching that to Spike when he was at TNA too wasn't he? |

Was Russo ever drunk when thought some of this shit up? Was he high?

Leprechaun in the Hood is an amazing film. I have fantasies of Warwick Davis putting in a cameo on SVU, and when Tutuola sees him he groans "Not you again!" And wgebbe gets asked how they know each other he says "I don't like to talk about it..." |

Tank Abbott wcw champion. When he returned to the wwe in 2002 he pitched another wcw invasion that got him fired in 4 days. In a shoot, Kevin Sullivan mentioned that Russo pitched to him about playing an IRA extremist... Funny to think of Kevin Sullivan playing an IRA extremist with that thick Boston accent of his. Unless part of the angle is he's one of those guys in Southie trying really hard to connect to his ancestral homeland in order to give himself some panache. What you gotta understand, bro, is Sullivan did the Satanic angle in Florida in the '80s, sooooo... |

The original blowoff to David Flair-Stacy Keibler was David was supposed to get Stacy pregnant and then propose to her culminating with a big wedding on Nitro... ...only for Ric Flair to object and reveal himself as Stacy's biological father.  You missed the part, though, where after that happens, comes Bombshell #2: the father of the baby was....VINCE RUSSO. |
