Vince Russo answered more reader questions on his Facebook page. Regarding Jim Cornette, he said:
"Throughout my entire career I have never said one negative word about Jim Cornette, not one. If he wants to be a Vince Russo and TNA hater, let him knock his socks off, but I'm not really interested in listening to that." Russo also commentated on Internet critics: "It's because they hate me and hate Hogan, and it's also because they want TNA to be a 2 hour wrestling show, with TWO HOURS of wrestling, that ain't gonna happen, so the haters will continue to hate." Russo recently set up the Facebook page to promote his upcoming book, How WCW Killed Vince Russo.

I was one of the first to join Russo's fanpage, now there's way to many people. I think I'm going to write him a letter one day instead.

In a way I like russo. He hasn't done a bad job in tna. Now Hogan is doing wonders for the company. Sure his buddies are coming in but there has been more wrestling and more clean wins. Fantastic line ups. Less gimmick matches. Younger guys getting big wins. ;D

I'd love for him to listen to Cornette, and try and do a point/counter point.

It's funny, TNA said that with this "reboot" of the company they would listen to the fans. On iMPACT the fans said they wanted more wrestling....thanks for listening TNA!

Then take the Fricken name "wrestling" out of your name and get rid of the ring then you FRuckin moron! Vince Russo has yet to do anything on his own to make a company improve.

He never said "We're not gonna give you wrestling! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!", he said we're not getting two hours of wrestling which we're not.

Your answer is about as pointless as his assumption that that's what people want. Fans want quality wrestling, and most quality wrestling takes time. Of course we know there's commercials, backstage segments, etc...but when you get 16 minuets of total wrestling in a 2 hour show, there's somethig definately missing from your product.

At the same time, they have to give you a reason to order their PPVs. If they give you all of these matches week in and week out whats to make you want to order?

Why woulda i want to order the PPV if the weekly show is an indication of what I'm gonna have to pay for? In other words , if it sux, why would i waste my money? COntrastly, if they give me something that I think is worth my money then I'll buy it. I've only bought two TNA ppv's. The one i was at and HJ...in 2007

Russo also commented "... they want TNA to be a two-hour wrestling show ... that ain't gonna happen." That, right there, is almost sig-worthy. ... and it says a lot about TNA right now.

Because, they're not going to have two hours of NOTHING but wrestling? Yeah... it shows they're smart. Gotta build storylines.

Gotta build storylines. But right now they have a two hour talk show with some wrestling. They need to find a good balance, enough talk to build story, and enough wrestling to keep it called a wrestling program.

Gotta build storylines. You cant help but defend this crap can ya? If Russo's that stupid to think that fans want non stop wrestling with no backstage segments, or storyline build, etc, then he is a intellectually- disabled person and shows that either he doesn't know what the fans want or just doesn't care. I dont care how much you think you know, when you stop caring about what your consumers( the fans) want, then your product is not gonna get bought! What fans want is wrestling that tells a story and then those stories to carry over into backstage segments, etc with continuous dramatic build up to a definitive point that has a payoff. Not a random 2 minute match here, 6 commercials there, 25 WHERE's FOLEY segments here, Oh, another 3 minute ladder match for the world title, topped off with irrelevant ODB segements, 5 appearances by guys over 50 who can barely walk, and stellar main event where the entrances last longer then the match itself.
