Vince Russo costs TNA their deal with Spike TV
Trending
Vince Russo is one of the most controversial figures in the industry and has always given prominence to “edgy content” over in - ring action. During his tenure with TNA in the first decade, he was heavily booed and jeered by the TNA faithful and left the company in 2012.
One of the main reasons as reported by many outlets, for him parting ways with TNA, was the dissatisfaction of Spike TV, with what Russo was doing.
However, it was later revealed that Russo was secretly working with TNA as a consultant. This revelation was made when Russo accidentally leaked an email, which he was supposed to send to TNA.
In the following days, Russo admitted on his website that he was indeed working for TNA as a consultant - an admission which was mysteriously deleted a couple of days later.
Spike TV decided to drop TNA from its line-up because they did not have faith in TNA’s leadership. In short, Spike was not convinced that TNA would be able to turn their fortunes around. However, rumours later surfaced that Spike was upset about TNA’s association with Russo - something they were against in the first place.
