    Gotdamn...can u read...I said if u were going to put blame on anybody it would be Bischoff...Yes he created the NWO & had a lot of great/known talent but guess who beat him with new unknown wrestlers.....Russo...When E.B. was trying to expose WWF & laughing at them for giving Mankind the title(Russo idea), thats when everyone turned to Raw & the ball began to shift...I was a WCW fan but Facts is facts. WCW started to lose viewers b/c they had old talent, people got tired of hogan, & they ran that NWO ish dry...WWF was unpredictable(b/c off Russo at that time) & everyone loved it...ECW was a company with great matches but wack storylines. The cliq isnt dx ? ...? that ish...chyna wasnt in the cliq...the cliq didnt have everybody going around sreaming suck it...Russo made WWF the highest rated wrestling company again & he took them to the highest rating they ever had...Paul didnt do that....V.M. didnt do that...when Russo went 2 WCW, he inherited a problem & still brought the ratings up...WCW released him & hired him back within 6 months b/c the ratings dropped & he did it again.

    I'll say Heyman because he always knew how to make the most out of anything he had. He turned cats like Shane Douglas, Raven, Mike Awesome, Rhino, Taz, Sabu etc into stars. He gave the guys the chance to be their selves which inadvertently was the beginning stages of what the "attitude" era would be about.


    Vince Russo should get more credit.

    Paul Heyman>>>>>> Vince Russo but Jim Cornette had a great run (lame era but my childhood in the 90's was so GOAT he gets a pass).... Yall ? that ? on Vince Russo are crazy.... Some of those Attitude storylines were his ideas... Yeah he lost his mind late in the game but Russo was good mid '96 to early '99....

    & take down that Undertaker crucifixion vid...that was Russo
    Russo wasnt there during the Dudleys era
    Russo wasnt there when shane jumped of the titantron(that was in 2001)
    obviously u dont know your history...

    Russo=the man who beat WCW with unknown stars
    Russo=the man who took WWF ratings to it highest level ever.
    Paul=equals the guy who made smackdown good but never took WWF or smackdown to its highest rating
    Russo=the creator of smackdown(came up with the idea to give rock that show

    try again...

    You ? don't give Russo enough credit.

    Yeah he failed in WCW, yeah he had a bunch of bad ideas that had to be filtered by Vince but he still was the brain's behind everything from 97 to the fall of 99 when he left.

    DX.... Russo Idea
    The Kane character and the rivary with Undertaker..... Russo idea
    Stone Cold/ Mr. McMahon fued..... Russo Idea
    The evolution of The Rock's character..... Russo Idea
    All the character from that era from Val Venis to The Godfather to The Brood etc....... Russo Idea

    And Russo took it upon himself to make sure that everybody from the top of the card to the jobbers on Heat were involved in a story line

    Paul Heyman was a great writer and even better booker, Jim Cornette is a ?

    The best thing you could say about Russo is that he would at least utilize everybody on the roster, gave everyone something to do.

    Heyman is the best out of the 3. Cornette is too old school to push the envelop. Russo ideas are too out there, he didn't help WCW or TNA. The fact he treated Belts like props and stupid gimmicks like Mae Young giving birth to a hand, makes but him 4th behind Dutch Martel.
