Sometimes I really wonder how the WWE would look nowadays if Russo had 100% creative control.

They won't be stars if the company doesn't get behind them. He's right, but also cherry picking. NO ONE will be a star if the company says, "We don't see anything in you, now go dance and smile and get beat in two minutes".
Russo logic seems to be this. If you don't come into the company a megastar, then you're doing something wrong. However, if you do come in and get some massive pop, like say Sami in Montreal, then it's just a bunch of basement-dwelling marks who only pay attention to the internet who care about you and thus you're obviously not a star because someone who's never heard of you isn't rushing to the merch table to buy the shirt you don't have yet because you haven't made such a massive impact without mic time or a match that you're obviously just some jobber.

Considering how many rising stars he's absolutely ruined, not surprised that Russo doesn't understand the concept of making new stars.

What an idiot. Just keep clinging to that one time you were successful 18 years ago, Vince.

Are Shawn Michaels and Kurt Angle really household names like Austin and Rock?

I removed the link from the OP. If people want to read it they can find it themselves, this is literally trolling from him.

So will Russo and Cornette hate towards Owens and Zayn make them BFF? Except Cornette doesn't hate them. He wanted Owens to lose a little bit of weight and trim his beard up a little as he knew WWE wouldn't want him with as big as he got at one point (which is true) and didn't think the El Generico character was good enough to be a top level talent (which is true).

To Russo, no one is a star, except Jeff Jarrett.

I resisted posting this the last time someone posted about a Russo blog/post, but I'll go ahead and post it now. We don't have to make threads every time Russo gives his opinion. We can ignore him. I hope we do reach a point where he puts out a big opinion piece and it goes largely unnoticed by the board. I'll get off my high horse now.

"But you know who is a star? Tank Abbott, I swear to god, if you put the strap on him it will lead to a new boom period in sports entertainment." Here's the deal: does he ever say anyone actually is a star? They have to make new ones, it's like he doesn't even realize that. You wanna make stars? Put an Eyepatch on Zayn and a Mountie outfit on Owens. The New Quebecers, NEW BOOM PERIOD!

Stars have to be made. Imagine if Marvel told Chris Hemsworth to f*** off because he wasn't a star when he auditioned for Thor.
