Vince Russo had some strong words for Ric Flair, Jeff Jarrett, and others, going to the extent of stating that pro wrestling needs to grow up.
The Nature Boy will be teaming up with Andrade El Idolo for a huge tag-team showdown against Jarrett and Jay Lethal, in what will be Flair's final match. In the lead up, video footage of Jeff Jarrett and others assaulting Ric Flair was released.
Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW, Russo discussed the same and his rant suggested that he wasn't a fan of the angle.
"Ric Flair's last match. So we're going to turn this into an angle. So I saw the Jarrett podcast with Conrad and I was like, 'Okay bro, this is a work shoot.'... Jeff was phenomenal, so I'm like, 'Alright guys, this is a work shoot, but it's pretty entertaining.' Then I see them jump Ric Flair and I'm like, 'WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?' Bro we cannot just have Ric Flair's last hurrah. He's gotta be bleeding, Karen Angle's [Jarrett] gotta be wearing [a white dress]. What are you guys like 12?" [33:26 - 34:43]
