Konnan RESPONDS to Vince Russo's Who Killed WCW? comments 

DISCO INFERNO talks about how TONY KHAN is copying booking ideas from VINCE RUSSO ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-R5fQhNUhknQ.html

Even David felt bad for winning the belt right after winning in the locker room asking Booker T how many times you been world champion at that time 0

Sean O'Haire really should have been a bigger deal in the wrestling business but when you hear all the stories, he was his own worst enemy. It's a shame.

It's Res-Suh-Ling bro. Ha.

I couldn’t finish this. Disco should be the face of Tylenol for headaches. 😂

Fuck me, Disco is such a blithering, mumbling goof at times.

I hate this smart mark narrative about a "creative lull." WrestleMania just ended, they are letting what happened over the last 6 months settle into peoples minds, while new characters are being introduced, new situations are developing, and stories are being established, all while there is a real time complete overhaul of the entire presentation of the show. This is the kind of absurd nonsense people who wish they were in the business say to sound like they have any idea of what is happening.... its call pacing... . anybody who knows anything about storytelling can explain exactly why WWE is going at the pace they are going right now.... by SummerSlam people will be buzzing just as much as they were at Mania.

On the one hand, says he's for the "little guy" wrestlers like Booker T. On the other, thinks he's more over than the roster and puts the belt on himself. Smh.

I could've swore Vince said he had more character than 80% of the roster

People bash the whole David Arquette thing but nothing will ever be as bad as Mike Tyson literally falling asleep at ringside during an AEW show

Konnan’s so cool🔥 He speaks so honest and has a great insight. This Who Killed WCW doc is amusing viewing.

Russo came off so pathetic on that last episode. “I was better than 80% of the roster” “We needed ratings so I’d do it myself” WHO THE HELL WAS ASKING FOR MORE RUSSO ON TV!? And then to say he was hurt, well if you didn’t put yourself in that position to be on tv you wouldn’t be getting hurt. The lack of self awareness from him is ridiculous

That spear from Goldberg to Russo was as brutal as that kick to the head of Bret Hart.

Disco tries so hard to be seen as intelligent. So much so that it sounds desperate. Learn how to speak clearly

These comments are wild. David Arquette was champ, Vinny Ru was Champ, Vince McMahon was fn "ECW" champ. Its a TV SHOW. Get over it. It's not a real competition. Its a story. Things are done to draw ratings. The champion isn't gonna be the "best wrestler".... whatever tf that means.

Vince did have a lot of charisma. Just not a draw and not in the main even picture. Nobody's going to pay to see Vince Russo perform.

I'm 38 years old. I love wrestling when I was really little but then I got back into it when I went to a show with my dad & Stepbrother & saw the Wolfpack. OMG I remembered the Konnan & Kevin Nash Big Sexy T-Shirt commercial!! Anyways I started getting so pissed when I would watch WCW because it seems like every single night there was some kind of shenanigans that would go on or a match would get interrupted that was a really good match, in the black and white NWO interfered with everything all the time...... And it would just piss me off that the Wolfpack wasn't getting pushed more because they were so damn over... and I thought Billy Kidman was a phenomenal Wrestler!

Tony Khan is going to try to buy Vice simply so that the Who Killed AEW show is never made

I don't get why Vince Russo says stuff like this and then acts shocked when he gets negative critics. Exactly what reaction was he thinking?

Russo in real life IS the same guy from tv

Vice must pay these guys a lot of money for these interviews because they shows cause so much drama. It must be worth it.

Got to give hogan credit when russok came in. He at least tried when it started. He put over mike awesome and vampire in pinning loses and lost to the wall. That never happened before. Plus he had a program with Kidman who was literally half the size of hogan and lost to him on nitro.

As WCW fan that went to most of the Atlanta shows, I felt even as a kid that the upper brass didn't listen to the fans. I remember Lex Luger being so over but have to settle for him in the midcard while Hulk was rehashing old feuds with Macho Man and Piper.. I hated Luger and Konnan in the Wolfpack because they were so cool on their own. Also felt like they didn't give enough time to Disco vs Dean Malenko.. I think i remember them facing at one of the Bash at The Beach or Spring Stampedes I attended and liking the match and build

Konnan was ON ONE the day they taped this show! LOL Zero F’s given. Thats why I love this show. He and Disco truly keep it 100.

NEW BLOOD would have been a good angle for Shane McMahon MILLIONAIRES vs NEW BLOOD was way too late and douche. It wreaked too much of a PUSH that should have infamously happened years prior instead of the constant glorifying of the usual talent. Mike Graham would argue that SUCH TALENT is getting such push because viewers watch. WCW was so damn chaotic and desperate at this point. WCW used and abused nWo and failed to evolve at appropriate pivotal points in time. Most notably the evolution from STARRCADE 1997

WCW refused to put over younger talent at that time so they all jumped ship and became WWE Champion like Chris Jericho, Eddie Guerrero and Rey Mysterio as examples. The Giant Paul Wight was a transitional Champion yet he had a decent run as The Big Show and main evented Wrestlemania a year after leaving WCW. Booker T also had a great run in WWE as World Champion and as 'King' Booker. Vince Russo making himself WCW Champion was disgraceful and that Championship lost a lot of credibility because of that decision. So much bad decisions booking wise and politics played out in front of the World led to the downfall of that company. Disco and K-Dogg would know the real ins and outs because they were there.

I ever knew Kermit The Frog co-hosted Konnan's podcast.

I am fan of Eric Bischoff and Vince Russo but it drives me crazy how Bischoff seems to have conditioned the public into assuming Russo deserves blame. If anyone is to blame for the death of WCW, it's Bischoff. He paid wrestlers insane money, he gave them creative control. Vince Russo didn't make the contracts for anyone.

Real talk, I don’t believe that the person who possibly invented the TNA Reverse Battle Royal could kill a wrestling company 💯

Konnan & Disco should have gotten tons of screen time on the "Who Killed WCW?" Show.

More confirmation about what a DB Goldberg is.

I like Scott Steiner but I remember he said in an interview that people want to see people that look like him as opposed to smaller guys? I just remember thinking well I don't think that? or at least the majority of people that I go to school with don't either...

Russo's entire point was that to this day people STILL think he's the same person in real life as his character he played on TV....which you can't say about most of that WCW roster

I think that Russo is so bored talking about this stuff that now he's just trying his best to trigger anyone he can

Embarrassing clip. Russo is the reason Disco is relevant in 2024 and he's over here burying him.

I still think Bill Goldberg will sign with AEW. There's no way all these giant contracts are being thrown around and he won't try to get a piece of the action. Tony Khan is a money mark, he's there to be used

Soo glad they didn’t include Disco in the documentary. Terrible public speaker. Change the channel heat.

When they air who killed AEW... Tony Khan will get all the credit 👍

Konnan has anyone said lately that you kind of look like todd barry the comedian

Russo is more talented than anyone in AEW, but not WCW.

Disco and Konnan @3:16 and 5:58 When Vince Russo came in One of the Few Talents that I tune into WCW to watch was Big Poppa Pump Scott Steiner.Whenever that Siren went on it was Time to hear what The Big Booty Daddy had to Say and His Genetic Freaks.His White Hot Heat Bone Crushing Promos.At the The Sopranos,Big Poppa Pump would've made a Out-of-This-World Tony Soprano Type Heel.Scott Steiner was a mixture of Stone Cold,Brock Lesner,Kurt Angle,Superstar Billy Graham,Right Underneath WCW's noses.Talking about Lost Opportunity and Missing The Boat Big Time🤔😕😠

Never forget that Russo’s ratings in WWE & TNA outperformed Bischoff, Cornette & Prichard, and he took all their jobs at least once. And Russo’s WCW ratings were no worse than anyone else’s in late stage wcw.

I'm sorry, but for Konnan to say that maybe he and Disco should've been placed in higher profile fueds with the uppercard is a joke. I was a fan of Disco but WCW had him slotted correctly in the lower midcard and Konnan never resonated with me. If anyone should have been elevated, it should have been Raven, Scott Steiner pre-2000, and Buff Bagwell as a pompous, chickenshit heat magnet. Benoit, Ray, Eddie etc. didn't have much character until WWE but they were presented pretty well in WCW. And Booker T was booked well as an underdog, who worked his way to the championship, somewhat DDP-esque.

WCW was dying long before Russo got there. WWE was improving (quality wise), even while WCW was beating them in the ratings. WCW was making mistakes while they were still at their peak

Russo is a joke he destroyed WCW when he came, hogan and erick definitely had a part but vunce booking made me completely tune out of wcw. Hes a mark for himself, a fucking joke to the industry.

Russo also said on one hand he knew that Hogan was not going to work on day 1…then said if Bischoff wasn’t there he was 100% sure they would have had a great relationship,

Wcw 99 was already a shit show before russo got there. They started the year with the finger poke which was the final nail in the coffin. Goldberg was never the same without the win streak. Giant & Jericho both left. They turned sting heel which made no sense because he was still getting cheered. They had a terrible boxing match in a ppv. Bischoff was doing so bad he got fired. Hogan was doing his best to keep the belt hostage while giving terrible matches in the ring. They didn’t know what to do with Bret.. Now did russo make things worst, yes!! But wcw already lost the war before russo arrived later that year

The spear was brutal. Ha.

Russo came across like he’s normal self. Always someone else fault never russo fault he wants all credit for WWE run but no blame for wcw and tna classic russo. The guy who claims to hate wrestling yet stays in it because he can’t do anything else

I think russo put the belt on himself was absolutely ego driven on his part and he was not a trained professional wrestler but if he was gonna put the belt on himself why not defend it then

Russo does makes some good points on his show....but unfortunately he gets ahead of himself and say something that gives him the bad reputation he has..

I wish y'all would stop editing the cuss words . Or just funny say them

The point that alot of people seem to miss with Hulk Hogan creative control thing is that he should have never had creative control

People will bash the Arquette thing but are silent on Katie Vick.

vince russo killed wcw. why is this even an issue?

Disco talks like he's on Sesame Street

you know why Vince Russo was "better than 80 of that roster"? because Russo's booking devalued so many people.

WCW had so many wrestlers around that time that technically he was better than 80% of the roster due to their being 30 million wrestlers .

Who didn’t goldberg hurt 🤣👋

If i hear the word "Bro" one more god damn time...

this was good stuff.

Stone cold K. WCW

Excellent video

Vince Russo had some ideas that may have been good originally but needed tweaking. and many horrible ones that either Vince McMahon himself or someone like Cornette, Prichard or Patterson would've shut down in a production meeting, but in WCW he was unsupervised and even when Bischoff was brought back he didn't have Vince McMahon's big personality nor the authority to fix the mistakes. What Vince McMahon did in the Attitude Era was surround himself with a good team. Russo tried to do everything himself because he thought, and seemingly still thinks, he's such a great writer and performer even though he's clearly not.

Nobody taking responsibility for anything.by 1999 eric ran out of ideas..and by 2000 nobody was being entertained by vince..i agree with konnan there was no good matchups that the fans wanna see no buildups no nothing just a dumb 2 hr show

👍🏽

Vice needs to make a new TV show called: Why Didn't WCW Book Scott Steiner vs Hulk Hogan?

If I’m booking you to give me a rko DDT anything don’t try to kill me wtf Goldberg is way to unsafe

You can’t blame DDP he was just doing what was done to him he definitely had to earn his spot but you are right disco buff and you would have been better stars if they had gave y’all a push but time W. Didn’t want wrestling

Vince Russo turned Mike Awesome into that 70s guy, I just can’t get over it

I dont think Russo killed WCW since it was inevitability going to go away. But he definitely helped speed things along.

Vince Russo said I got my character than all of WCW wrestlers 😂😂

Disco killed being smart.

Does Brett Hart like anything? He seems to know who to blame but never gives a reason.

Cornette is going to love this

disco selling betting platforms is hilarious

Vince Russo didn't do a thing wrong, he's talking about you because he is better than you

well it's never cool to use old scars to create new wounds

Vince Russo is not to be blamed for WCW dying but I don't know why he has to say stuff like that. Imagine booking yourself to be champion instead of elevating guys like Billy Kidman or Rey Mysterio.

He's always had a Big EGO

Let's be fair he followed that by saying he shouldn't have ever been on camera. Which I think we can all agree with that.

It doesn't matter in the end WCW is gone. You don't know what you have till it's gone. Boy it was felt for so many years.

Vince didn’t say he was a better wrestler than 80% of the WCW locker room. What he was saying was he could generate heat better than them. 80% might be a little high, but I’d say it was between 50-60%. I personally liked the cussing and adult dialogue that Russo’s WCW had. I might be alone here, but when Hogan was being booked as (what I call) “Stone Cold Hulk Hogan”, and he was showing up on Nitro in his all black Charger, cussing like a sailor, beating everyone’s ass, I thought that was some of his best work in WCW.

I'm tired of Russo. He wasn't trained and put himself in angles where he was hurt. He blames everyone else for his problems. I'm tired of the "people think he's the same guy on camera and off camera". Ever think that Russo is just unlikeable?? Listen to what he says. He just said he's better than 80% of the roster. That's a douche thing to say. The people who worked with him don't like him. He's an unlikeable delusional guy.

I think Russo was speaking the truth when he said no one in WCW had any Talent that's why you put himself on TV if you look at the People Who Join WWE only Booker T made it in WWE

I e heard this crew defend Russo on many occasions. I just find it hard to believe that if he was the reason WWF took off during the Monday night wars, why was he an absolute failure every other place he worked?

I know you guys like Russo, but he was solely the reason why everyone I know stopped watching WCW.

Hahaha. You booked yourself into a permanent injury.

Bro, Russo put himself over lol.cmon mark it’s a work bro I enjoyed Daffney,3 count, Kimberly, miss hancock. Wcw had great talent even though the company was about to be defunct in 2001.

I like Russo, but man he shoote himself in the foot with some of his statements.

PRIDE Forever!

The fact that Vince said he was better than 80% of the roster was ridiculous

I see why Jim Cornette wants to unalive Vince Russo. He is disrespectful to the business.
