#1. Former WWE writer Vince Russo reveals working with Christian 'drove him crazy'
Former WWE head writer Vince Russo was at his honest and insightful best during the first episode of SK Wrestling's new show, Writing with Russo.
The former WWE employee recalled when he worked with Christian and how he faced one very annoying problem. Russo and Christian were in TNA/IMPACT Wrestling together, and it's safe to say they didn't have the smoothest of working relationships.
Russo said that Christian's overanalysis would be a hindrance during the tapings, which would go on for hours. Vince Russo said they had to tape various shows throughout the day in TNA. While Russo appreciated Christian's professionalism, it irritated him as they had to complete a grueling shooting schedule.
Russo revealed:
"First of all, I worked with Christian. Christian and I didn't have a wonderful marriage, and I'll tell you why. When I worked with Christian… when you do pre-tapes, especially when you're taping various shows in a day - and we had to do that with TNA because they didn't have the money, so sometimes we would have to tape four or five shows a day, Ok? - When I had to do pre-tapes with Christian, he would overanalyze and practice… Bro, for hours. For hours! It's like, you know, yeah, I appreciate the professionalism, but bro, we gotta go! We gotta get this sh*t done! We've gotta go. So, it drove me freaking crazy!"
