>Bischoff
-probably has a huge bank account including several more tucked away
-went from the absolute bottom of the industry to helming corporate meetings with the higher ups
>took a fledgling $20 million a year company losing $10 million a year to a $350 million a year company that was making $50 million a year
>which ended up getting sold for $2 million
>can actually brag that he drew eyeballs to his product to generate money instead of just using wrestling as a toy box
>the only promoter to go toe to toe with McMahon on a national level, the last hold from the NWA.
>only came back because the money and story was good, actually worked for the guy he tried to put out of business. Put personal feelings and history aside to help the business.
>fucked off to his cozy place out in Cody, Wyoming. Probably fly fishes every day.
Russo:
>started as a writer, wrote his way into the industry
>undeniably produced and takes credit for kino, but he also produced undeniable shit and much of what was kino was due to the team around him
>needs a filter, both on screen and b.t.s. Letting him run roughshod and have free reign produces fucked results detrimental enough to get him banned from companies and networks.
>literally lived in his mom's basement and begged fans for money and a job back at WWE.
>stuck in "New Yawk, bro" mentality and Howard Stern/Jerry Springer 90s crassness, but for good reason as the time he was in the business, Frasier, Friends, and Seinfeld were the biggest shows in the world and that's not competing with Monday Night Football. He had to draw eyes to the product and he no doubt did.
>invested into JCW, which just might be the perfect fit for him. For a place that's literally at the bottom of the barrel, the only place to go is up and people are talking good stuff about it. Let's see where it goes.
