>>8785357ecw confirmed in vince's mind that it could work, but after that, this is true. it was really cornette and russo that made it. corny NEEDED someone like russo who was so out of touch with traditional wrestling that it would attract the jerry springer and numetal and eminem and trash tv bullshit that was all the rage with the normies. as much as he HATES russo, he needed him more than he will ever admit. without russo it would've been trad wrestling and the attitude era would've never happened.
