Vince Russo: “I would make a way better champion than CM Punk – I wouldn’t have to wrestle in a t-shirt”
During the January 29th 2026 edition of JCW Lunacy, Vince Russo made an announcement regarding plans for the vacant JCW title as a result of former champion Matt Cardona returning to WWE…
“First of all, what you see on my shoulder is the brand-new JCW Lunacy Heavyweight Title.
Now, I know — I know what you’re saying, Vince. ‘I hope you put that title on yourself,’ because let’s face it, guys, I would make a way better champion than CM Punk. Thank you.
And not only that, I wouldn’t have to wrestle in a T-shirt because I’m 50 years old.
But we do have a little bit of a problem, because old Triple H purged our JCW Champion. But I’ll tell you what — because of the kind of guy that I am, I want to personally thank Matt Cardona. Give it up for Matt Cardona. He was a great JCW Champion.
But the situation is, we don’t have a champion right now. So I’ve made an executive decision.
Next week, right here on this show, there will be a match to determine the new JCW Lunacy Champion. And that match will be between Cowboy James Storm and Mr. Anderson.”
