1. I've heard that he wasn't fond of Diamond Dallas Page. Is this true?

2. Did he come up with the idea for Booker T. to have a "Rock-like" character, after Booker won the World Title?

I know he didn't like the veterans, especially Hulk Hogan. I'm not sure about DDP though

As for Booker T, it was Russo's idea for him to win the WCW title and I'm pretty sure he encouraged Booker to start dressing and acting like The Rock. He even used "The Rock Bottom" as his finisher for ****s sake. That's how desperate WCW was to catch up with the WWE

Well since he thinks he invented "The Rock", would it surprise you?

Dwane Johnson and Vince McMahon invented "The Rock"
