>>7972936Not a Russo fan and maybe his personality single handily justifies Cornette's hatred of him but I think a big part of why Cornette rages about him the way he does is because of Vince McMahon choosing Russo over Cornette at the end of '97. Others have spoken out about their hatred of Russo so maybe he really is that insufferable behind the scenes but I think that Russo being chosen over Cornette and then Russo going on to be partly responsible (however small a part is up for you to decide but he was still somewhat responsible) for one of the largest WWF boom periods, if not the largest, while Cornette was relegated to managing that shitty NWA invasion angle is something that eats away at Cornette every single day.
