Cornette is a psychopath, while Russo is an attention whore. Nothing new here.

Cornette has threatened Russo's life multiple times, however. He's said the only thing stopping him was jail time.

Russo did recently apologize to Cornette (even though many thought it was satire), so Russo pulled a Russo and caught him with the swerve out of nowhere.

The Russo/Cornette feud bores me. It definitely peaked in late 2009/early 2010, but it just comes across as lame in 2017.

Well it makes sense, especially if you have ever watched documentaries about the attitude era. Cornette was in the camp of the old school ideas that killed wrestling, Russo was new school but unchecked killed wrestling. Two guys who bankrupt promotions but different ends of the spectrums.

That is exactly why Cornette despises Russo. Cornette feels that Russo's car crash TV style of writing destroyed the wrestling business that he knew and loved. Cornette also feels that Russo got him pushed out of WWF creative in 1998 and got him fired from TNA in 2009.

FWIW, if Cornette was up to being on the creative side of things in TNA during 2006, TNA would probably have never of rehired Russo. So sad. Cornette would have fit in a lot better with Jarrett and Mantel than Russo did.
