Jim Johnston is more deserving to be in the Hall of Fame than Russo.
If i could heart this i would 🖤
Oh hell yeah
I agree, we gotta start a petition, he is long overdue.
He got raws and tnas biggest ratings all while Jim was working there too, I like listening to corny but he isn’t objectively looking at this
@@Matt198d I dno about TNA but I know who got raws best ratings and it was not Vince Russo. Was two guys called stone cold and the rock
I am in absolute shock....that Jim Cornette will not be in the NBA HOF. Just look at his undefeated stats.
What records did jim break in the nba? Because Russo got raws highest ratings then continued to break that record until he left
No? I swore he had the numbers, the guy was absolutely dominating in the paint.
Can't believe Corny won't be in the rugby HOF either. He never got sidestepped in his life - how many rugby players can say that? ;)
@@Matt198da Russo fanboy
Nobody in the league has numbers like him! 😂😂😂
Who would Pay to see Jim Cornette Induct Vince Russo into the WWE HOF if that opportunity ever came up?!… 👀
Damn. I would. In a parallel universe thats probably about to or already happened 😆. And in a parallel universe to that, we both paid to see it 🤣
Hell will freeze over first
That would be awesome
@KaneMagus i am.
Only hall Corny'd induct shitstain into is the Hall of Pain
I love Jim’s voice when he talks about Russo. It’s this mixture of rage, sarcasm, and amusement.
I think it's reaching a perfect balance. It used to be 99.75% rage.
It's great lol I love corny but I'm open minded on the wrestling business and Vince Russos time in wwf certainly did make it more better than watching wcw. Yes the crash tv stuff in wcw n TNA was ridiculous but his work in wwf was alright. HOF deserving tho? Yea no I doubt that ever happening
It's a mixture of Shit and Stain
It's love and hatred.
He _loves_ to hate Russo.
@@TD1021-i respectfully disagree with your opinion
Cornette vs Russo is literally the only wrestling match I would pay for these days.
The greatest match of all time...
Brawl for all rules
@@blueweegie6541 in MetLife
Yep!
@@blueweegie6541 Something would have to be on a pole as well.
Vince Russo doesn’t want the chance of finishing up his acceptance speech and look over and see Jim Cornette in Gorilla position waiting to personally congratulate him on it😂
Holding a racket with a big chunk of tungsten on the end of it.
Omg thats hilarious.
Imagine him making the famous cornette face while waiting lol
With a tennis racket in one hand and a sock filled with quarters in the other.
With Eric Bischoff on the other side
Nah, Jim would just bring a baseball bat, and five grand. :)
Jim Cornette deserves to be in the Hall of Fame. Man is a legend.
Also didn’t stone cold Steve Austin and the rock both declare that Jim should be inducted in the hall of fame.
Jim & Midnight Express per Austin, not sure if The Rock agreed but I do recall a tweet between the 2 about them!
Didn't Cornette get inducted with the rock and roll express?
@@TheeCambion He inducted The Rock & Roll Express. Their fued in the NWA with Midnight was one of my favorites back when i was a kid loving wrestling waiting patiently for Saturday aka my wrestling day
@JMan Thank you 🍻
They are the biggest stars of their generation (possibly ever), but those are two guys that have both knowledge of and an appreciation for the history of wrestling.
Chris Benoit and New Jack will get an induction invitation before Vince Russo
New Jack? What he'd do, other than being certifiable?
@Aaron Ethan no it’s Chris Benoit those jokes are old outdated and not funny anymore get over yourself
@@josiahboatengmyrie I thought it was funny...
Just so it's clear, like Russo, I too WILL NOT ACCEPT INDUCTION INTO THE WWE HALL OF FAME!!!!!!
I am Spartacus and I also will NOT accept induction into the WWE Hall Of Fame.
I too will not accept. Induction into the WWE hall of fame. Because like Russo, I'm a loser!
I also will not accept induction into the WWE HALL OF FAME.
After all you've done for them, Jeff? I think you should accept.
No! Please say it isn't so!
Funny thing is - I wouldn't be surprised if WWE offered him a spot.
I could only see WWE putting him in if he were back in the fold at some point. They're not going to put people in the HoF they can't trust to tow the company line.
Over Triple H's dead body
He wasn't a personality on WWE that was all during the downfall of WCW I can't see it
No not spot like your dog spot, not a liver spot, not any ones spot! But MY SPOT!
He would accept it in a heartbeat
Jim deserves to be in the Hall of Fame. He is a great talker and his time with Midnight Express was amazing. But don't forget all the behind the scenes work that he put in. His love and dedication to wrestling gave us great moments that won't be forgotten.
Exactly, Cornette has a proven track record spread over several years and promotions and a variety of jobs. And get notebooks from every promotion he worked for
He most certainly was one of the greatest and most entertaining Manager's of all time! I was introduced to "wrasslin" at an early age since my Father had been a fan since before I was born and still is at 70. Jim Cornette was a common sight back then in the 80s and early 90s so some of my earliest wrestling memories involve him since he managed so many high profile heels over the years. I don't watch much wrestling anymore (I find listening to Jim and Brian review it much more entertaining than actually watching it) but when I did I was always a mark for entertaining heels, cheering for them more often than not. That being the case I became a fan of JC early in life and that's carried on to this day. I would *LOVE* for him to finally get his well deserved recognition and be inducted into the HOF. More than any other non wrestling individual I feel he's earned it. Also, if you take into account his contributions behind the scenes he's more than earned it. Sadly, the WWE will *NEVER* allow that to happen and I honestly can't blame him for saying the only way he would even accept would be if he were nominated along with The Midnight Express. I know it'll never happen but hypothetically if Vince Russo were to be inducted into the WWE HOF at all let alone before Jim I would lose my shit! It would be a travesty and a huge insult and fuck you to Cornette!!!
He's said that he'll accept if they put him in with Midnight Express, otherwise he doesn't see what he could be put in for.
And of course he says it on the video right after I comment....lol
Jim's dedication to the wrestling business alone means he belongs in the HOF. I can't imagine one without him.
@ShadowAngel Because WWE is wrestling to all casuals. People don't have to like that but it's the truth. I guarantee you most of the general public could only name a WWE show if you asked them to name a wrestling show (probably Wrestlemania tbh). You're more of a mark for the business than the people you're accusing of being marks. WWE is a literal monopoly on wrestling. No other wrestling company comes close to brand recognition and revenue that the WWE has made. It's the only game in town as far as most of the world's population is concerned.
@ShadowAngel To be fair,at least KoKo paid his dues in the territories unlike the Bellas cause of who they dated.
True that.
Facts

Russo should be in the WWE Hall of Fame. He went to WCW and helped put them out of business!
Vince McMahon should induct Russo personally, telling him "Having a 'Judy Bagwell On A Forklift Match' was some good sh*t, pal!"
(I expect 'Weenie Beanie" to reply with something stupid.)
Except that Russo increased WCW's ratings you blinded mark. By the way, Jim has been fired at every promotion he's worked for. Russo hasn't.
@UCUMlnBdnE5weDCezQmLbrag Erm, no? Just blowing out your ill guided narrative.
Called it.
Hahaha he took the bait
Jim cornette should also know what it’s like putting a wrestling company out of business and getting fired at every promotion he’s ever worked for
Steamed Hams but Vince Russo is Skinner and Jim Cornette is Chalmers.
Thank you!
SKINNERRRRRRRRRRR!!
I gotta be honest with ya, bro, these steamed hams are an old family recipe.
Bro, what you don't real-ise is I invented steamed hams, nobody had ever even cooked with steam until I came along bro.
No way! "Skinner's" a war veteran who turned ouTo have only assumed the I.D.
All I can say is; Jim SEEMS “obsessed” with Russo until you realize that the latter keeps giving the former ample reason to mock him. This is fucking hysterical.
Russo lives rent free in Jims head.
@@leftovergaming9529 Nah, not really. At least, not anymore
@@leftovergaming9529 nah it’s the other way around
@@joshmay2944 nah, it really isn't. Jim bitches nonstop about Russo, Vince hardly talks about him.
@@indiasupportstrumpwwg1wga927 The reason Vince hardly talks about him is that Jim debunks a lot of the stuff he says if it's aimed at Jim. I'm not saying that from a fan-boy perspective, it's just that Russo doesn't gain anything from talking about Cornette because he is harassed for weeks after it.
Jim needs to be in the HOF based on his OVERALL contribution to the industry and as a great personality.
The newer fans needs to at least get a glimpse of what a good talker is for when Jim does his HOF speech. THAT speech, should be good lol.
Jim cornette getting inducted by Russo. Now that's TV worth watching
I can't lie I will make sure I stay tune for that.. That would be hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂😂
“I’m here bro to induct somebody I hate more than life itself bro..” 🤣
@@JSmithRecords 😂
Bahahahahahaha awesome so true lmaooooooo
I think Corny would probably accept the induction if Russo was inducting him. Just so he could talk shit about him during his acceptance speech.
Jim Cornnette letting him know he’s “Safe!” at 1:50 is gold lmao
The best offscreen feud of all time! Can you imagine the tension in the room when these two had to work together in WWE and then again in TNA?
Vince Russo is so full of 💩 it’s not even funny.
Russo doesn't want to be inducted into the hof because he is afraid Jim Cornette will fly down with a parachute and machine gun Vince Russo down
😂😂😂😂😂😂🙄
It's funny but also possible.
Russo has asked Cornette on multiple occassions to meet and Corney cuts a heel promo and runs the other way.
Facts bro 🤣🤣
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
He did help destroy WCW in 2000. His horrible writing of that show was definitely Hall of Fame worthy.
And he destroyed women's wrestling in America.
Hall of Shame's most deserving
@@lautheimpaler4686 Destroy it? No. Set it back 15 years? Yes.
@@lautheimpaler4686 Bust and ass draws more.
Destroyed a company yet in his first 3 months he had the ratings slowly going up
The thumbnail is the joke of the century😂😂😂😂. I am laughing both of my asses off.
The “DQ Shmee Q” line qualifies him for the Hall of Fame in my opinion
That alone was a piece of art
Honestly that was unintentionally hilarious line from Russo.
😂. DQ Shmee Q 😂
When you refuse to start his $35 order at Dairy Queen.. "DQ Schmee Q!"
@@takerdust “What does this look like, a comedy bus?”
Vince Russo can go into the blockbuster video hall of fame.
Invented late fees, bro
Be kind, rewind. That was all him, bro.
…. don’t do that to Blockbuster lol
The success that Blockbuster had in the past was all Vinny Ru, bro.
Blockbuster killed his business though. Like Vince inducting Verne into the WWE HOF lol
I love Cornette! His indignity is hilarious.
Vince today:Bro you know I wouldn't ever go in to that hall of fame. Bro I am a man of principles, of God and who has a word.
2 weeks later
WWE: Vince would you like to be in the hall of fame?
Vince: Absolutely bro
only would happen if Shane took over.
aww a vintage Russo SWERVE!
Jonathan Bro why do you have the France 98 mascot Bro?
@@foreverred105 France 98 bro, nostalgia bro! Don't you know 98 was the best year ever bro 😛
I took Cornettes job bro and he manipulated all of you marks into thinking im a bad person because of a difference in wrestling philosophies ..
Cornette deserves to be inducted because of his passion and being a manager for soo many top guys throughout the years.
Nah Cornette, you deserve to be in the HOF. You were one of the best managers of all time.
Cornette deserves to be in the PRO WRESTLING Hall of Fame the WWF/E HoF is nothing but a JOKE! WWF hasn't been worthy of being called anything they've done Hall of Fame worthy!!!!
@@StephenSkorak yeah, but its a good pay day and if it has nothing to due with Russo he will do it for the right price.
A Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame needs to be bigger than the WWE Hall of Fame.. That's where you kill all the bias crap and just look at what they contributed to the Pro Wrestling Business not who's important in Vince Mcmahon's head..
Jim Cornette should be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, not Vince Russo.
They both absolutely should.
For what exactly? He's been a waste of oxygen for any wrestling promotion and has been fired from every single legitimate wrestling company. Whilst Russo's success at the WWF has been unmatched to this day.
@@MrRevolutionNine Just in terms of WWE: Cornette managed the WWE Champion. Managed 4 WWE Hall of Famers and trained dozens of world, midcard, tag team and women's champions in OVW.
@@MrRevolutionNine LMAO Russo has destroyed at least 3 wrestling promotions and honestly his creative writing was more miss then hit wherre Walsh 90 put cornys cred Russo has zero cred like that oh and Corny is largely considered one of the greatest managers to ever grace the business and is considered one of the greatest talkers of all time...
Of course
I was waiting to hear Jim Cornette’s opinion on what Russo said. I knew it would be good.😂
I've missed hearing Cornette say, "What the fuck!"
"Gah damn right you never will be a part of it. No knives, no guns, just the hood of my fu@king truck!"
Benoit gets in before Russo.
fuckin true
Why is this so funny ? I legit lol'd.
@Brian Gillespey kinda my point.
A guy who committed premeditated murder on his son, then told different stories to people about their whereabouts so he could give himself time to kill himself like a coward < Russo.
Oh, and don't throw in that CTE excuse. Benoit was very cogent when those murders happened. It was nothing more than protracted domestic violence that had been brewing for years. He used to talk to Kelly Kelly aloud on the phone so that Nancy could hear it. Broke furniture. (You imagine being in a room with that freak breaking furniture?) He just didn't want to get off of steroids and end his rasslin career, so he lost his mind and brutally murdered her, then gave a Xanax to his son so he could kill him the next day, then lied to his co-workers, neighbor, and management with different ones so that he wouldn't get a welfare check, then clocked out of life
It's disgusting to me how people like Meltzer try to play plausible deniability with his murder streak because Benoit was a "nice guy" when they would meet over the years. So are a lot of wife beaters. Then everyone is shocked when it happens.
No appeals court would have ever given him a retrial over CTE in light of the evidence in question. It was nothing less than premeditated. Any prosecutor would have killed his defense team over Xanax.
I sometimes wonder if he was so distraught over Eddie Guerrero's passing because Eddie was his de facto Christian marriage counselor and moralized to him to pray or read Scripture instead of beating his wife. Nothing else makes sense for his codependency, then his Bible spectacle in the aftermath of his rampage.
The sarcasm to start this video off had me cracking up 😂 Cornette is so good at this he does it effortlessly lol
You would think MC Hammer would be in, Because he’s too legit not to be lol
But he quit!😂
@@kurtpaulsen6579 actually he didn’t quit! 😂
Can't touch this.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thank you for this Mr. Cornette. Just gold..Russo really does believe his own hype..
Jim Cornette deserves to be in every Wrestling Hall of Fame that exists
I saw this video title and just started laughing
Barry Horowitz is MORE deserving of the HOF more than Vince Russo.
Has Barry Horowitz ever been World Champion?
I think that Barry deserves to be in. His work made others' work much better. He was best of the best at his wrestling niche, that being enhancement talent.
@@foreverred105 He has not, but neither has Koko B. Ware or Big Bossman, and they are in there.
But both have something in common, both are known for patting themselves on the back.
I'm legit shocked Horowitz isn't in already.
Russo has proven time and time again he has no impulse control and no common sense.
Cornete let other men bag his wife
Cornette epitomizes lack of impulse control. He brings himself to the precipice of an aneurism every time someone dares to disagree with him on anything. He clearly has anger management issues.
That's why Russo was good for the era. That's exactly where pop culture was. So long as he was managed by those with better fundamentals, he was good at what he did. Raw never had a dull moment. But the moment pop culture moved away from that, Russo was no longer relevant in any sense. It goes to show how stupid wrestling people are that they can't see that, insofar as Cornette's inability to appreciate the money and the ratings they drew, and the fact that people kept hiring Russo after 2002, even though he never has been able to tell a good story.
@@KayFabe87 Yeow shet ep bowt Corny! I likd him evar sense he was in wrestling!
@@KayFabe87 he's working
Imagine him getting nominated for the Warrior Award
Destrucity!!!!
Well, he is as much of a bigot and homophobe as Warrior. Soooo.... 😏
Corny literally almost made me choke on my food LMFAOOO 🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
The only induction Russo should get is an induction into getting his ass kicked for helping to ruin wrestling. For someone who hates the wrestling business, he sure loves talking about it because he otherwise would be flipping burgers and trying to swerve customers by giving them a chicken sandwich.
that shit eats him alive. he said he was done talking about wrestling about 5 years ago, his subs tanked as they should. then, he said he would stop watching wrestling after he turned 60. im sure he's 60 now and still watching wrestling. has to be depressing.
How did he "ruin wrestling"?
Please give me your reason, don't regurgitate Cornette's opinion.
@WP&P That's not enough to ruin all of wrestling buddy.
@85futureshock Well, I doubt he would be, he has a degree in Journalism. So, if here weren't trolling in the wrestling business, he would be in some other form of media lol
@WP&P His net worth speaks for its self. And those are all things that failed... but he isn't even close to being powerful enough to ruin anything is my point. *Does Hogan poses in victory*
The only Booker in the hall of fame is T.
You mean Black Snoooooooooooooooooow
Excellent point, Sheldon
Yessss. Nothing like a good Shitstain rant. Corny reserves a special level of derision and vitriol for Shitstain. Those are always the best.
He'd also get inducted into the Aunt Annie's Hall Of Fame
Im commenting before watching. When i read russo said this i was waiting for cornette comment. Why would russo ever believe he would be asked? I still cant figure out how he even got into wrestling business with major promotions
It wouldn't shocked me if they did announce that Vince Russo would be induced to WWE Hall of Fame but I would question why
He kept writing Linda McMahon begging for a job, so they gave him one writing for the magazine.
I'm still trying to find out where is the WWE Hall of Fame to see who has been entered in the Hall of Fame.
😂 at that pic. That pretty much sums up most people’s reactions to the site of this guy. JC should go in for being an important part of the 90’s WWF in general as an on-screen manager. The list of guys he managed were pretty much the top heels of that time period going from Yokozuna to Bulldog and Owen Hart to Vader. All of them were featured prominently with him as their manager.
No way WWE would ever put Russo in the hall of fame. Now if Cornette starts a Outlaw garbage mud show hall of fame, Russo should be put into that.
To be fair, Russo's booking in the WWF did seem to help things (I don't know how being as I prefer matches to last more than 5 minutes with promos and angles being as concise as possible, but audiences appeared to love it), so you could justify an induction based on that.
@@tempestfennac9687 I also think what people tend to forget to is look at the creative before Russo even came on and apparently that was under Prichard and cornette
@@maxgriffin3950 Were they booking in '95? If they were, they wouldn't really have any right to critique Russo's booking.
main event for next wrestlemania: Cornette VS Russo
In a street fight match
That would sell more than NXT ppvs
I'd love to see that 🥊🥊🥊
Trump is already in the Hall and I’m rooting for them to add Russo just to piss off Cornette again. 😂
Any Russo speech would be insufferable...
Bro

Bro, I was responsible for da attitude era, bro! I created Stone Cold Steve Austin, bro!
Considering the amount of "Bro" Vince uses makes it worth a thought having him be inducted by Matt Riddle.
Hannibal TV did a “Bro count” on his 2 hour interview with Russo and the total came up to 180 bros in ~120 minutes.
Spot on analysis Jim… but what the hell are you doing to your Christmas turkeys 🦃 🤣
If Vinnie Ru did go in the HOF would somebody interfere for a DQ?
DQ SMEEEEQ
@@troublesomewestsideoutlaw5754 😂😂
I love how much they went off script at end
I also think Russo is lying. He would definitely accept the induction! 😂
What a jackass to think he'd get nominated in the first place
What a lie. He would accept it but they won't induct him into the HOF since he's so controversial.
Ya know honestly the HOF candidates are slim. Jim could actually get in.
@@rosiegratz8377 JC could but Vince Russo? Helll no!
@@RKO1988 Of course Russo won’t go in, writers don’t go in the HOF.
@@RKO1988 A Character In WCW.
If Vince Russo is inducted before Cornette, put Cornette on 24 hour supervision until the ceremony is over so he doesn’t hurt himself or anyone else 🤣
"Somebody needs to check on him!" LMFAO
Say what u want about russo but he wrote 1998 and 99 and that was amazing
I would like to announce that I will not accept the induction in to the wwe hall of fame as well.
Jim is one of the best managers and greatest talkers in all pro wrestling. His gimmick is perfect for him. The hall doesn't matter.
I heard this shit a few days ago. Never heard of a “writer” being indicted anyway!🤦🏾
I think you mean inducted indicted is something completely different 🤣
Cornette never spent long enough with any territory or company to be in a hall of fame 😂
Shitstain is just a meme at this point
I would like to announce that I will not accept a marriage proposal from Scarlett Johansson
So brave. I admire your courage.
Thanks for being strong for all of us, one day I will BOLEAVVVE in myself enough to make love to a human 🖐🇱🇷
Wrestling needs a real hall of fame
Hell, old AWA jobber Jake "The Milkman" Milliman should go in the HOF before Russo
Mike Sharpe, Emory Hale and the Ding Dongs deserve it more than SS
Vince Russo needs a DNA test for his kids, they are probably the mailman's or maybe even the milkman's.
Grizzly Smith also declined to be in HOF
MLB has a writer's wing in the HoF.
And that is why the mlb hall of fame is a joke.
Before the video starts, this is gonna be fun to watch.
corny, sting is in the hall of fame and 98% of his career was outside of wwe. you belong, simply because you were one of the greatest managers of all times. hell, who could out promo corny?
Heenan and Corny are the best managers of all time
You are SAFE! 😂😂😂
the amount of disdain that Jim has for Vince is ex-boyfriend level. He has to get some counseling for this 😲😂😂
He’s just bitter that a guy that wasn’t a mark for wrestling like him and didn’t spend his whole life in the business came in and wrote a higher rated wrestling show than him
@@maxgriffin3950 definitely. It’s almost sickening to think that someone is that bothered by an outsider, but still wants to cover that outsiders work every chance he gets in order to stay relevant. Vince Russo doesn’t have to do a podcast on wrestling and still makes a living, but this guy seems to only be able to get work this way. I’m tired of hearing him and Conrad Thompson in general…
Mark Henry should put him in the hall of pain 😂😂
He deserves it. Vince Russo gets praise from some of the highest grossing stars of any era including Steve Austin, The Rock, Foley. Russo was known to put "Mid carders" in story lines and feuds. Future stars like Aj Styles in TNA put him over as well. Top talent like Booker T and Scott Steiner were not World Champions until Russo came to WCW. He was responsible for WWF's and TNA's highest rated segments. On top of all that Vince is a former World Champion. First ballot Hall of Famer, easy.
Russo has done some good. Yes. But hes also done a lot of stupid shit.
Might as well put the catering folk in the Hall of Fame too! i’m sure they have great praise from all the greats.
@@clydeb487 Name the "catering folk" who has written a TV segment which generated an 8.4 rating? Name the catering folk whose a former World Champion, no I'm not talking about short-order cooks from a Pikesville waffle house
Mc hammer? Famous batboy? How about my cousin “Luigi Squeegee” former yankee batboy thru the dynasty years.
Sounds like Cornette is off his meds again. Russo needs to file another restraining order against Cornette.
They should put James E Cornette in
Since the moment the bellas were announced as inductees the hall of fame has lost all credit. Two of the worst "wrestlers" ever
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Cornette at his best!!!!
Id love to see Russo get into the Hall of Fame just so we can hear another Russo rant from Corny.
He single handedly ruined wrestling. That's what he should be in there for.
Ruined it how? Cornette's booking in 1996 wasn't any better. Cornette's dealings with Jerome Young was no more thoughtful or low brow than Russo's race baiting.
Russo was a horrible writer but he was an arguably great creative consultant since rasslin people in that bubble are so out of step with pop culture that some idiot like Russo was needed to make the company more in tune with pop culture. All of it was transgressive, from Springer & Povich, South Park & Celebrity Death Match, sitcoms by David Kelly. The worst promoters are those who don't give the public what they want. They made their millions and could afford better talent later on as a result. What was Cornette's idea? Bring in Tracy Smothers and the Rock and Roll Express? The Unabomber? Cornette has good booking fundamentals but so do a lot of other people. Russo lost his usefulness when the public demand shifted.
I can't believe we're going to be screwed out of the "Let me tell you from my heart, bro" acceptance speech.
😅😂🤣🤪
Jim would absolutely have a place in the WWE Hall of Fame if but for the very same reason we listen to these podcasts - the shoots that Jim was able to air on a WWF broadcast.
1997 Jim Cornette: "Hulk Hogan is a household word, but so is garbage! And it stinks when it gets old too!"
i see jim cornette and vince russo i click
My God Corny... Enough with the Vince Russo crap lol... I don't talk about Vince Russo as much as you do.. and I've got a damn song NAMED "Vince Russo" lol.... Granted... The whole hook of the song is "These mf'ers hate me like my name is Vince Russo".... But still... LOL
Who the hell cares.... Vince Russo lol
"He puts the where in warehouse" Brian Last you got me good with that one
Jim Cornette is going in to the WWE Hall Of Fame the first year he is eligible.. for the posthumous inductions.
Who the F**K would be stupid enough to even suggest that idiot HACK should even be allowed to attend a ceremony. That accent alone should be reason enough to disqualify him
I'm beginning to think Cornette has a crush on Russo. Seriously. He's absolutely obsessed with Russo.
Some of us truly loved wrestling and are sad that it's all been burned to embers. Can ya please allow us to mourn the death of something we truly loved?
I still wonder why people take the WWE Hall of Fame seriously. There's no building, plaque, or a museum in honoring their inductees. Just like Martha Hart said "They don't have a hallway of fame."
It's complete garbage.
Oh no how will Vince McMahon sleep at night knowing Vince Russo would reject his invite into the WWE Hall of Fame IF it was offered. Well BRO, I don't think BRO, your ever going to have BRO, to worry about that anyways BRO. 🙄
As a wrestling fan (not a sports entertainment fan) I thank Vince. Now hopefully Corny gets inducted although I wish Bobby Eaton was here for it.
Very brave of Russo to take such a bold stance. God knows they must've been blowing up his phone and banging on his front door, practically *begging* Shit Stain to bless them with his presence in their imaginary bullshit Hall of Fame.
