    He did help pull off the Monday Night War's and did use Japan's NJPW Vs UWFI idea to start the nWo. So, hell yeah he should be inducted.

    P.S. Russo? Hell no, but Bischoff does.

    Bischoff does. He was a great on air character on top of being a great executive.

    Russo....whatever. He was just a writer, never did anything worth a damn on television.

    Bischoff was the brains behind WCW kicking the ? out of the WWE to the point he almost had Vince out of business and was a great on camera heel so he should get in

    Russo shouldn't. Russo gives himself too much credit for the attitude era and when he finally didn't have to answer to anyone in WCW he crashed and burned and the company was no more

    The attitude Era. I'm sure you're familiar with that period in wrestling. He was head writer during that time.

    To be fair by 99, Vince McMahon himself couldn't save WCW, so why would people expect Russo too? The problems with WCW were much greater than just creative, and Russo was just a scapegoat for not being able to save them.

    The New Blood angle initially was actually pretty damn good to go along with the New Blood Rising PPVs, and the Nitros that supplemented it (Thanks to Russo and Bischoff actually making an effort to incorporate each others ideas together).

    The problem is just like today the negative IWC just wanted to focus on and over analyze any little non centerpiece that didn't seem right, such as Hogan vs Kidman, instead of just sitting back and just enjoying the ? that wasn't WWF. Sounds like a reoccurring problem today.

    Wait why would Russo even get a mention about entering in the WWE HOF? What has he done??

    Ban yourself t/s. You've insulted us all. Good day.

    Russo gets a bad rep even though his storylines was flawed as ? ............... If Russo aint in the WWE Hall of Fame, we should just say ? everything between 1996 and 1998 in the federation..........................

    Bet yall give Jim Cornette a pass when then ratings were slippin and fallin in the gutter............. IMO Russo was good for a few years, thought he was better than he was and failed............. LOL at the talent Russo had compared to what was there before him............ ? was on fail mode before gettin killed by WCW and before Russo really got a chance to carry the ? .............. Almost like saying Obama put the country in the tank even though all the failing ? happened before he got in office................ Russo lost cuz he started thinkin he had a greater or a bigger wrestling mind than Vince................ Right or wrong the ? still aint found his way out them Vince wrasslin bushin since he was fired........ WWE is still a float and its rare that Vince Russo is brought up, mentioned, or even known............. Cornette had talent when it was on him but the ? booked a ? Diesel vs Mabel match at Summerslam............ Russo was ready to book anybody against any goddamnbody at anytime..........

    I don't know the story on Bischoff like that but it seems he was just lucky ? wanted to get paid more and Ted Turner had and was ready to give them wrestler the little dough they wanted..... No knock on him though............

    Whoever is responsible for the wrestler Glacier and his $10,000 a night entrance should be banned from any and all Hall of Fames.

    I swear I thought I Scorpion was gonna make an appearance during one of his matches. Like as soon as Glacier starts celebrating after winning his match, you hear "GET OVER HERE!!!" Lol.

    I'm saying that because he ? on Flair pretty much treated him like a ? , didn't want too push young talent, became obsessed with taking out the WWF instead of putting out the best product
