The fact is, Russo has experience in this area and was in WWF[E] during their most explosive era[Attitude]. Russo definetely can't do any worse than Scott D'Amore & Mike Tenay. Once TNA has writers like a Vince Russo and talents like Angle, they will be able to try and ascend to that next level. And like it or not, TNA will only go up from here in terms of success. Once guys like Christian, Rhino, and Angle jump, it's only a matter of time before other pissed off WWE employees do the same.

Russo shouldn't be the focus anyway. It's about damn time TNA got a better announcing team. Tenay is almost robotic and uncharasmatic and Don West oversells and screams, with one of the most annoying announcing voices I've ever heard. They[meaning TNA management] need to focus on fixing this aspect of TNA as well.
I agree.

Vince Russo can only better TNA right now. Unless he decides to make it the "Jeff Jarrett Show", and he sits in the ring playing guitar with Russo for Impact!'s duration, Russo's creativity will at least give TNA the ADD it needs to get attention from a few media outlets.

Who would you rather have writing your wrestling shows: Vince Russo, who used to write for WCW and WWE, and is in-part responsible for the Attitude era boom; or a Nickelodeon writer, who thinks the name "Jimmy Wang Yang" is funny, and probably still chuckle at the "Dr Heiney" segment?

Russo's controversy at least builds, and has kind of a relevence. The WWE just perform fellatio on themselves because they think they're funny. Vinnie just needs to stay off TV, not doing anything damaging, and focus on constructive creative writing.
