The Vince Russo Cult

[TNARICK]

WHO ARE WE

We are a secret society of anti-traditionalist wrestling fans who have been waiting for Vince Russo to gain 100% control of the TNA Writing before we spoke out.

HOW DO I JOIN THE CULT

You praise and worship anything that our God Vince Russo does. He is the most creative man in the business and is the reason that we had stars like Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock. You join our forum and help spread the word and fix the reputation the evil purists have placed on Vince Russo throughout the internet.

WHY IS VINCE RUSSO HATED

Vince Mcmahon payed dirt sheet writers and columnists like Dave Meltzer, Lance Storm, and Mark Madden to go around and spread false information about Russo because he knew he was the reason that the WWF/WWE is still alive. Vince Mcmahon wants to take credit for everything that Russo has done for him and will do his best to bury him.

WHY NOW?

With Jeff Jarrett and Dutch Mantell out of the way finally Vince Russo can rise and show the world what kind of show he can write. He will push younger talent, make cutting edge storylines with drama, add comedy, anything can happen, title matches on impact, character development, a overall better product. Join us today! We are now coming forth to save everyone who has been brainwashed!

Common Misconceptions:

Dave Meltzer will tell you that giving away big matches on television is a bad thing and will effect the buyrates for PPVs.

TNARICK will tell you the truth! When you have millions of more eyes on your television product then you will have more people to advertise your PPVs and Merchandise to. Why settle advertising to the 1.0 viewers that will watch a wrestling based program when you can have millions more to promote and sell your PPVs and Merchandise to.

Dave Meltzer will tell you that David Arquette as WCW Champion was bad for business.

TNARICK will tell you the truth! David Arquette winning the WCW Title was one of the most entertaining things that took place in the entire history of the business. Casual fans around the world loved it. WCW and Russo were going through a stage of replacing the old tradition fans with casual fans who are the masses.

Dave Meltzer will tell you that wrestling needs to be simple. Good guy vs. bad guy.

TNARICK will tell you the truth! Clear cut good guy vs. bad guy is not interesting in 2009. People want to see reality in the characters and feuds! People have more sides to them then straight good guy and bad guy.

Dave Meltzer will tell you that shoots and taking shots at the WWE is a bad thing and makes you look second rate.

TNARICK will tell you the truth! The reality in shoots and worked shoots make a fake scripted wrestling show draw in the casual viewer. When you are the #2 promotion you have to be aiming at the number one and taking shots. It brings in that reality because everyone knows that TNA wants to take the spot and will take the spot with the help of Russo.

PS AM I ALLOWED TO POST A LINK TO OUR HOME BASE?

[Fabien Barthez]

Lol. Very imaginative.

Just to be sure, you are not for real with this, are you?

[TNARICK]

This is real and there are many more of us

[Fabien Barthez]

Good, good.

So, you have a message board, that is purely to discuss Vince Russo, and his history in a postive light?

[TNARICK]

Yes we have been in hiding since 2002

[owenbrown]

I smell a banhammer coming soon..... too bad I am not one to give it

[Fabien Barthez]

Well, that's swell, TNARICK.

Tell me, for I am interested. Do you have any outlets for secondary discussion at this site, discussion that may for whatever reason, exclude Vince Russo as the feature topic?

[TNARICK]

Yes but I don't think we are allowed to talk about the forum on here unless I get permission to link it.

[Fabien Barthez]

Oh, don't worry about it, TNARICK. Nobody cares, and I am purely ribbing you.

SO, the important question that will tell me all I need to know about this place...

Have you ever seen a lady's vagina in real life? In an environment when you are permissed to touch it, and no money has been agreed to be exchanged?

[Loose Cannon]

there's a poster here by the name of Blitz that has been suffering and drinking wine all weekend that will probably want to join your team

[muffalufagus]

Vince Russo was good once... right?

[Fabien Barthez]

He certainly isn't '2009, lets start a message board, and call it a CULT' good though.

[Dave Youell]

This is the same thing that was posted on UKFF

Be afraid people

[Vastardikai]

So, How much is VinnyRu paying?

I'll get more in depth in a moment.

But, how can you sell your PPVs when the big marquee matches have already been seen?

You're right. Those old tradition fans that turned away never to come back were nothing compared to the casual fans. The casual fans who said "David Arquette? Are you shitting me?" The casual fans who didn't watch WCW at that point either. But, it's a good idea because I can still watch WCW, right? :shifty:

Dave Meltzer will tell you that wrestling needs to be simple. Good guy vs. bad guy.

TNARICK will tell you the truth! Clear cut good guy vs. bad guy is not interesting in 2009. People want to see reality in the characters and feuds! People have more sides to them then straight good guy and bad guy.

I'll give you that. The aww shucks good guys (Cena) don't draw. But the addage still applies: KISS (Keep it Simple, Stupid). Big complicated angles don't always draw (See: The Team Challenge Series). One of the best drawing angles in recent history is the Love Triangle between Edge, Matt Hardy, and Lita. It may have been poorly execute as it didn't give Matt his due. However, people paid to see that son of a bitch Edge get what he deserves for stealing Matt's girl. Nothing Complicated there.

The fans in general are stupid. I hate to say it like that, but it's the truth. You have to have something simple enough for them to understand. If you go over their head, they'll tune out. That's why some of the best drawing feuds are simple. the characters can be complex, nothing wrong with that. The storylines, SHOULDN'T be.

Dave Meltzer will tell you that shoots and taking shots at the WWE is a bad thing and makes you look second rate.

Not really. If you constantly make fun of something, people will want to see why you're making fun of it. When WWF made fun of WCW, it didn't help at all. They had to improve their own product before they could win the war. If TNA wants the number one spot, and they HAVE the talent and the ability to do so, they need to improve their own product and not worry about what WWE is doing.

Understand this, bro. I have no qualms with VinnyRu. I just think he's only been successful through a filter (Read: Vince McMahon). I don't think he can successfully run TNA without a filter. And, Dixie Carter is not a wrestling person, so she wouldn't know. If the filter were, say, Jim Cornette, I could see it working out.

[McLegend]

It'd be hilarious if Russo was in fact fired.

[McLegend]

This is the best stable ever in the history of the internet.

[Emperor Smeat]

there's a poster here by the name of Blitz that has been suffering and drinking wine all weekend that will probably want to join your team

I don't think he would want to drink the "kool-aid" they would be serving that most weird cults do.

[KIRA]

So this one warrior nation of yours TNARick this army of one and none is....how does russo pay you? in Bjs or just the anonymous reach around just curious.

[Vastardikai]

Side note:

Steve Austin came up with the "Stone Cold" gimmick on his own. And he was viewed as the heir apparent by several people, including Arn Anderson, Harley Race, and Ric Flair during his time in WCW. All before Hogan came in.

[Afterlife]

This TnaRick fellow got me on AIM today and harassed me into watching Russo-written episode of WCW. What I saw was pretty boring, and it was stacked with wrestlers I despise.

[Vastardikai]

He did the same to me, I told him I was working (Which is the truth.)

[thedamndest]

I would like to join. Cult has such a negative connotation though. Can we change the name to the Vince Russo Club? We don't want people to think we're brainwashed.

[TNARICK]

Any member who joins the Russo cult on this board will be put under the Radicalz4 division.

So far I think I have thedamndest joining?

[KYR]

I think that in order for you to gain any measure of success from this that you should post this thread in 'Casual'.

A larger audience would guarantee greater potential membership.

[TNARICK]

Ok thank you

[Indifferent Clox]

I'm in. I AM IN!


RUSSO 4 LIFE!

OH YEAH!

[thedamndest]

TNARICK and I are exchanging PMs about my questions regarding the Vince Russo Cult. For the benefit of those who might be considering membership, I recommend TNARICK post my questions with the answers and open this up to further questions.

[TNARICK]

q: I'm going to need to know more about your mission statement before I commit to this

A: The IWC has been brainwashed by the dirtsheet writers about what a good wrestling product is and they have tarnished Russo's online reputation. With Russo about to be able to have a large role in TNA we are going to help convert people over and let them see that he is the savior of the business.

Q: I gave up on TNA a long time ago, so most of what I know about Vince Russo is limited to WWF/WCW. Will that affect my group standing?

A: No! We love his WCW 2000 work (alot of our personal favorites)

and WWF Attitude.

TNA 2002/early 03 with Jarrett vs Raven, S.E.X had alot of influence as well.

This is the first time that Russo has had that much power since then. We are very excited.

[Indifferent Clox]

I am very excited.

DO i need to refer to 'me' as 'we' now?

AM I IN?

[DAMN iNATOR]

Q: Would somebody close this shit already?
