Former WCW veteran Disco Inferno also expressed his views on Tony Khan hiring Vince Russo as a writer:
"There was one thing Vince was very good at, writing the show. Not a lot of guys were good at writing but Vince always understood threads, and character development, like let's give somebody a good character development promo here. [...] Whoever Tony has there, like if he is writing the show, they are not writing a good show. That's not progressing or I don't know." [From 00:31 to 01:15]
Although Vince Russo and Tony Khan don't share a great relationship, crazier things have happened, and only time will tell if they ever work together.
