10 Years ago today Russo and Ferrera jumped to TNA...ehmm i mean WCW

"1999 - Vince Russo and Ed Ferrara, writers for the World Wrestling Federation, jump to WCW shortly after a weekend meeting with WCW management. Neither Russo or Ferrara were under contract with WWF, leaving them free and clear to make the jump. Russo called Vince McMahon to inform him that neither he or Ferrara would be at Raw the next night. WWF.com posted a brief message stating " Effective Sunday, October 3 at 9:45 pm ET, Vince Russo, one of the creative writers, will no longer be with the World Wrestling Federation. Russo abruptly resigned over the phone and will now be working for WCW." This was seen as a devastating blow to WWF, who were preparing for their Initial Public Offering into the stock market. "

At that time it was looked at as a blow to WWF, the Russo-Ferrera team, came up with some ideas that helped the ratings during the period

At the time I thought it was overhyped that two writers from WWF was going to be the savior for WCW. Those two jerks got what was coming to them when they tried to imply they were the geniuses not the guy who was filtering their crap, Vince McMahon.

I am surprised that they still have jobs after their WCW run though.

I loved watching them fall on their face despite the suffering that WCW and their fans took.

Hard to believe that was a decade ago. My how things have changed.
