Former WWE writer Vince Russo issues response to being publicly insulted by Seth Rollins
While speaking with Jay Mohr, WWE star Seth Rollins noted that he “hates” former WWE writer Vince Russo. Rollins said the following about Russo…
“He’s just a hanger-on, man. That guy’s an idiot.”
Russo issued a response to Rollins via Twitter/X…
“So, @WWERollins ‘Hates Me’ and according to him I’m a ‘Hanger On-er’.
So this is why I love being an analyst. I get to really analyze people’s comments.
So, Seth Rollins ‘hates’ a guy that he actually never even met, or even had a conversation with. In other words he’s never had any contact with me in any way, shape, or form. That equates to—@WWERollins doesn’t know me.
So then WHY the hate?
I’m assuming that it must have to do with my ‘analysis’ of Seth Rollins over the years. While there is no question that Seth is a Great Athlete, I have always questioned Seth being a Great ‘Worker’. Why? Simply because I have witnessed dozens of Seth’s matches over the years where he fails to SELL. In my book, being a Great Worker means you know how to Sell.
From there, I questioned why, when Seth turned ‘Heel’, did he still go out there and literally CONDUCT the fans as they sang along to his song. Is that what a ‘Heel’ would do?
Then there’s this—me saying to NAUSEAM that his ‘Mentor’ (thus, Seth being his ‘Boy’), @TripleH is NOT A WRITER. Guess what? I’m not even going to argue that point. SmackDown just did under a MILLION VIEWERS for the third time. That’s Proof enough.
From there ‘Idaho’s Own’, ‘The Monday Night Messiah’, Seth ‘Freakin’ Rollins’, ‘The Visionary’, and whatever other moniker he’s used over the years, said that I was a Hanger-On-er. Bro—I left the @WWE over 26 years ado. Don’t you think by now my hands would have been callused, bloody and scarred grasping that rope? Brother—I don’t have Seth Rollins muscles, I would have let go within the first three minutes.
And lastly . . . the obvious . . . ‘NOBODY LIKES HIM’.
Yup—that must explain why I keep getting hired over and over again even at 65 years-old.
Seth—it you want to learn anything about being a character, storylines, what exactly a ‘heel’ is and yes, even SELLING—you can tune into @jcwlunacy every Thursday Night on YouTube.
Maybe you can even have a sleepover with @TripleH —wouldn’t hurt him to learn a thing or two either.
And, while I thank both you and Mr. Mohr for putting me over by mentioning me on his show—PLEASE—and I BEG YOU—respond to this tweet—RussosBrand.com could use the Clicks!!!
Good day and Merry Christmas.”
