During a recent Q&A session on the “Something To Wrestle With” podcast, JBL addressed questions about his relationship with Vince Russo.
Regarding Russo, JBL stated, “He mentioned The Brawl For All and he tries to make a living off controversy, and if it’s not me, it’s somebody else.” He then offered a pointed assessment of Russo’s career, saying, “I have no desire to be in a controversy with somebody that can’t go back anywhere he’s been a part of. You know, that’s all you need to know about him. He literally cannot go back to any place that he has been and worked, as far as I know. You don’t see him at WWE reunions. You don’t see him anywhere else, and so he makes his living off controversy. If it’s not me, it’s somebody else, and I have no desire to get into anything with somebody on the internet that certainly does not, that’s all. I have no desire to get into a controversy with this guy.”
Essentially, JBL characterized Russo as someone who thrives on creating controversy and highlighted what he perceived as Russo’s inability to maintain professional relationships, further stating he had no desire to engage with him.
