Good stuff,Konnan is definitely a genius when it comes to the wrestling business. Almost 3yrs later and LAX is still over as hell and the CRASH promotion is bad ass.
Vince was right. LAX appears on TNA right now and it will be the best thing. Konnan has always been cool. Two great minds like Konnan and Russo doing creative would make for some great wrestling.
You could go on TV with LAX, and still be relevant.... 2015. 2017 Konnan leads LAX on TNA. You're not wrong about this bloke, fucking love Konnan. Great chat this mind.
LAX was cool, seeing a Latino tag team who could bring that real heel heat was fun. Being part Puerto Rican I'm disappointed WWE never promoted AJ Lee as a Rican. She's a Jersey PR! Homicide repped it for us NJ, NYC Latinos. WWE only had Carlitio in the modern era and his run wasn't that long. WWE doesn't market us well anymore- no World champ since Pedro M in the 70s.
Alot of people like to bury Russo saying he killed WCW. WcW was dying because of the backstage drama queens. Russo was pushing the younger stars instead of old guys thinking they were still in thier prime.
3:30 Vince, the reason you enjoyed cannabis at college; and then got freaked out by it later in life, is because the stuff you had at college had a higher CBD content, and a lower THC content. CBD/Cannabidiol is what makes you chill; whilst THC (usually found in strong skunk weed) is what makes you feel like you're at a funeral dying of a heart attack. Get CDB. Avoid THC. :)
At 23:00, Oh, come on! How to get only Spanish speaking masked luchadores over? Get them an English speaking manager. Remember "Playboy" Gary Hart for the Great Muta? Skandor Akbar and The Missing Link and Kamala? Nothing new.
I Think to me the Nwo angle got stale when the finger poke of doom happened! Because they had a great story that they was building up that i felt couldve been a great match at a war games ppv with red and black vs black and white with the losing team dismantling its team wich couldve then allowed certain guys to move on into their own stories outside the nwo. scott steiner and scott norton were 2 guys that couldve been title contenders but the minute the finger poke of doom happened it looked clear that they had no other ideas outside the nwo angles. Everyone wants to see the ending to any Great Story no matter how good that story is. Also eric bishoff was the first owner i saw turn heel and become a tv character before vince became mr.mcmahon.Bischoff was a great heel ppl hated him and wanted to see his ass kicked but he didnt do what vince did, Vince knew ppl hated him and used that to his advantage he let austin kick his ass once in a while and even had a cage match with austin. Bishoff had so many guys to do that with and always hid behind the nwo.I feel if you gona play a villain on tv you need to let a hero beat you up once in a while. The nwo shouldve ended with the black and white(larger group) losing and breaking up hogan having a solo heel's run and steiner going on to give goldberg his first loss The red and black having a lil longer run since they was still popular.
The difference is Vince was/is the majority owner of the WWE, while Eric Bischoff was put in charge of WCW, but it was owned by someone else (Turner, AOL, TimeWarner, AOL-TimeWarner), but he was never the majority owner of the company.
*Dang, I didn't know Konnan did steroids... he always wore that tank top when he wrestled, but he never really looked that swole... just hefty and fat boned.*
jesus christ idk but something just finally gave in and i realized how annoying Russo's voice sounds...and its not so much his voice but how he just fuckin drags out every word
so I can make work and would like to make music with him and get it we can make you mix by blood Cuban Native American mix by blood Puerto Rico Native it would be for you it American we were born on your way here American in American rap song with him my really true super deep serious good way'S cool nice friend Konnan or K- Dogg and Tommy Ray Staley'S Jr. or Lil Tommy/Staley'S
Freakin Konnan!! How can anybody hate this dude!!
Watching this in 2022, it never gets old. Absolutely love it.
Konnan was just casually like bro you ever tried Xanax lol 😂
Konnan... love his stuff. He gives no fcks and speaks his mind.
Good stuff,Konnan is definitely a genius when it comes to the wrestling business. Almost 3yrs later and LAX is still over as hell and the CRASH promotion is bad ass.
Hogan didn't want to realize this time is over and that's why they had heat
best interview I've seen in a long time.
Love Konnan, such a funny, zero fucks given kind of dude, great interview.
"Bro they got it over here in gummi worms Bro!"
Vince was right. LAX appears on TNA right now and it will be the best thing. Konnan has always been cool. Two great minds like Konnan and Russo doing creative would make for some great wrestling.
I'm huge Konnan fan big time .
What a great interview. Both men are wonderful to listen to,
You could go on TV with LAX, and still be relevant.... 2015. 2017 Konnan leads LAX on TNA. You're not wrong about this bloke, fucking love Konnan. Great chat this mind.
Love this Interview..did Vince said "bro" over 500 times?

Russo is one of the most honest people that I've ever heard now a lot of people Grant you don't like him because he's blunt his mentality is tekl
I sweah to gawd bro.
Why are you asking? You know he did bro, that's how the man talks, bro.
@@solidcake3401 ok English teacher
both of their podcasts on podcast one Vince Russo the swerve and Konnan keeping it 100
his mentality is to tell it like it is and not care about who's feelings and hurts I'm a New Yorker too so I understand that
Konnan straight Gangsta
"Bro"nnan
Lmao awesome
My girlfriend asked me where I got "super chilly maxed" from yesterday ...got some free time tonight definitely had to comeback an watch this lol
Bro, Russo's first wrestling question to Konnan is why he didn't put a mask on Gilbernetti LOL
37:59 is the funniest thing I have ever heard. LMAO
Konnan! Fuck yea!

His kidneys problems were from steroids

You should check his physique out when he worked in Mexico
since when was konnan "a world class boxer" lol
Big - he was until his surgery came up
I know I’m responding 2 years later ... but Konnan was in the US Navy and was Gold Gloves.
he almost forgot who kidman was lol .. still a legit guy tho
I actually went to a TNA SHOW when Russo was writing it . I loved it now its unwatchable which explains why they lost 90 % of their viewers since .
And then there was AEW
jesus christ idk but something just finally gave in and i realized how annoying Russo's voice sounds...and its not so much his voice but how he just fuckin drags out every word
Bro bro bro 😹
Bro
