Vince Russo recently discussed his past relationship with The Rock, shedding light on their history during the Attitude Era when they both worked for Vince McMahon in WWE to compete against WCW. In a recent episode of the podcast BroDown on Sportskeeda WrestleBinge, Russo was asked about the possibility of working for WWE as a consultant if The Rock takes full control of the company. He clarified that there was no bad blood between them and expressed interest in consulting for the company if the opportunity arose.
Russo also delved into The Rock’s absence from WrestleMania this year, suggesting that it was a form of retaliation against fans who prevented him from facing Roman Reigns at the event. According to Russo, The Rock was supposed to interfere in Roman Reigns’ match and eventually take the title from him, setting up a storyline where Cody would defeat Reigns. However, plans changed due to fan backlash, leading to The Rock’s decision to skip WrestleMania and make a brief appearance as part of his “revenge tour.”
The WWE Universe is eagerly anticipating The Rock’s next move, while Roman Reigns faced a brutal attack from Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker on RAW following WrestleMania. It remains to be seen how these events will shape the future of WWE programming.
In conclusion, Vince Russo’s insights into his relationship with The Rock and the behind-the-scenes dynamics of WWE provide a fascinating glimpse into the inner workings of the wrestling industry. Fans can stay tuned for further developments in the ongoing saga between The Rock, Roman Reigns, and other key players in the WWE landscape.
