How will Vince Russo "impact" TNA?
Har har har, pardon the pun. I personally hate Russo, his crash tv style worked with WWF characters in the late 90's, and even in WCW for a while, but after his last stint I am deffinatly thinking this is a bad move. He is always taking up the camera, and nobody cares, plus he really sucks on the mic. I think it is possible for him to do good for TNA, he has a lot to work with, but they better just keep TNA's focus to wrestling not fancy pantsin around with soft guitars and old guys in makeup. Make up is not cool.

I think Russo will be a positive for TNA creative. Although the man has made alot of past mistakes, it cannot be held against him. Tell me guys like Eric Bischoff & Vince McMahon haven't made past creative mistakes......right.

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.

So Russo IS coming back? Since the rumor that he was going to be part of the "major announcement" didn't happen, I thought this rumor fell off.

TNA: where members of the wrestling industry go to die. Why should it be any different for the writers?

I really don't feel that Russo is going to make that much of a difference, but I hope that I'm wrong. Anything working in TNA's advantage right now is a plus.

We don't think of it as dying. We think of it as "preparing yourself for a retroactive push."

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.

Vince Russo is a joke. He is good at coming up with some crazy out there shit, but the man has no idea how to book a show, how to build an interesting storyline, and doesn't even begin to understand where his ideas go from creative to stupid. If I were running TNA, I would have him be a writer, but I would have him, D'Amore, and Cornette working on the writing team together, the problem is that TNA needs someone who can be in charge and put a filter on all three of those men.

The only impact that Russo is gonna have is Impacting it in the Ass with lame shit every week. Angle might have raised TNA's viewing...But Russo will be bringing it down.
