Lol...at us Remember it just takes one Fox exec to go, “This guy was the head writer during the Attitude Era? We have to hire him!” No matter how flawed or inaccurate that statement is, it just takes one uninformed exec to think that and bam Russo has some level of input. I'm prettys sure it'd have to be a joint decision between them and WWE so unless WWE want him on board there's no chance of it happening.

Vince McMahon put Paul Heyman in charge of RAW before considering bringing back Russo in any capacity. Think about that.

Hey, someone do me a favor. Someone Photoshop Russo's head on Will Smith's body during that famous "How come he don't want me, man?" scene. I'd do it myself but I am not very good at Photoshop. We can call it, "How com he don't want me, bro?"

Then the FOX customer service rep told him that he could apply at the career opportunities page of their website?

I guarantee you WWE would air a lot of dirty laundry about Russo if anyone was that stupid to hire him without looking into him at all. that's not how things work in these environments.

Maybe it was a fever dream I had that he said wrestling ruined his life or something, bro.

Apparently Shane really liked Russo back in the day and a lot of Shane’s creative pitches were similar to the sort of things Russo would have done. Of course that’s just bullshit I read on the internet somewhere once so take with a pinch of salt Yep it was apparently Shane McMahon's idea to bring in the Jackass crew for a feud with Umaga. I still wish we had gotten than Summerslam match.

Even if I had no idea about all the stuff Russo's said/done/booked, this would still leave a bad impression of him on me. "Oh, WWE will hire Bischoff and Heyman to creative, but not me? Well, I'll just go over their heads and talk directly to FOX!"
It's like having a coworker who goes straight to the store manager to complain, rather than their supervisor.

But then they swerve him and make him a consultant for something that has nothing to do with the WWE. Fox management: "Welcome aboard Mr. Russo, you're now a consultant on So you Think you can Dance?"

Russo should demonstrate his credentials by simply posting a few sample story and character ideas on Twitter.

Russo really has learned nothing from his years spent destroying TNA. Trying to circumvent WWE management like this is a good way to guarantee they'll never hire him again for any role ever, which is a good thing, he's making his blackball even blacker with every tweet, shoot or podcast.

Thing is he doesnt want to work for WWE. He went over WWE's head and called FOX to consult then on how to handle WWE. Vince Russo Plays Chess, Not Checkers. He also throws the game at the wall halfway through the game but that’s neither here nor there at the moment. I would love to see Russo play game of chess cause sure as hell you know down the line we would have Bishop screwing the Queen hence becoming a new King and overthrown King forma alliance with the opposing King while Bishop who became a new King makes a stable called Dead Knights revealing that all Knights on the board actually turn into zombies at midnight and feast on Pawns hence the real reason why Pawn run across the board. But sure as hell you know as soon as there is a near checkmate Queen's evil twin sister will pop up on the board with constructicon ability to form a superfigure with two Rooks that devours the whole board which itself goes straight into Hell and then turns into chaos corrupted board with hell ton's of new abilities cause this time battle is in middle of the Inferno brother. Now each figure has corruption and as well insanity stat which modifies actual moveset of what it can do. Russo's favorite is probably corrupted King's ability to turn the board upside down so all other figures fall off the board which illustrates everyone falling into eternal pit. Such a great supermove but as always Zombie King former Bishop can now counter that move by building a pole out of Pawns bones and meat so high that his pieces can return to the board, moveset so powerful it has a striking name Pole of Pawns. Of course greatest stipulation in Inferno circumstance is move formerly known as Castling cause when you do that on corrupted board in the middle of Hell you are bringing the whole board and Hell with you right in the middle of Earth' realm so final battle awaits with whole new set of rules called Hell on Earth. Now it's gonna get really messy especially since the stable Dead Knight can suffer from Earth realm plagues such as alcoholism and pain killer addiction and when that happens you know someone will no show the board while the battle is going on. Let me tell you something bro at this point whole this chess came has turned into a one giant shoot. So what's my logical step here bro? What do I do here to makes fans care? Easy bro I just put down the cage over the actual board and now it's main event time bro.
