Moving on from one Vince to another, Vince Russo is considered by many to be the anti - Christ of professional wrestling - a sentiment Russo has embraced. Wrestling fans who had to sit through the dark days of WCW would vouch for Russo’s incompetence, but Russo himself would rank him amongst the brightest individuals the wrestling business has ever had the pleasure of knowing.

It’s safe to say that Russo isn’t a likable character. During his time with TNA, the fans often chanted for Russo to get booted from the promotion. Russo was also known to heavily favour his friends, and during his time with WCW, he decided to take things one step further, and put the WCW World Heavyweight Championship on himself!

Russo’s WCW run is often seen as a mistake, and many credit Russo’s shambolic booking, and his interest in emphasizing car - crash TV as one of the major reasons why WCW went out of business in 2001. Russo then found employment in TNA, quite the accomplishment for a man that has often voiced his distaste for wrestling!
