[
Vince Russo has maintained a confrontational stance in his latest appearances, coming out strong with his opinions.
In the opening of JCW Lunacy: Episode 61, Russo launched into an intense critique of Triple H, accusing WWE’s leading creative figure of allowing personal biases to shape who thrives and who is excluded. He then directed his attention to Karrion Kross, alleging that Kross’s exit from WWE was driven by personal reasons rather than performance or health concerns. Russo backed his claims by targeting the power dynamics within WWE under Triple H.
“There’s a guy who’s running WWE right now, and he’s doing it better than you. And his name is Triple H. And guess what, Triple H was a former wrestler.”
Russo argued that Triple H’s history as a wrestler introduces a bias that impacts roster decisions and the overall product.
“So what that means is Triple H has an agenda. Triple H likes some guys on the roster, he doesn’t like some guys on the roster. And that affects the show he runs.”
He then brought Karrion Kross into the discussion, using Kross’s departure as a key example. Russo made a particularly inflammatory assertion during this segment.
“If that’s not true, please explain Karrion Kross. Why isn’t Karrion Kross in WWE anymore? I’ll tell you why: Triple H knew Karrion Kross was going to be a bigger star than him.”
After these statements, Russo shifted focus to Kross directly, inviting him to join Juggalo Championship Wrestling for his post-WWE career.
“Oh, you’re already starting to hear it. Oh, I get it now. And Karrion Kross, if you’re listening, you can always come here with Scarlett.”
The timing of Russo’s remarks is noteworthy, especially since Kross and Scarlett have been publicly discussing their achievements outside WWE. Russo’s invitation adds to the ongoing dialogue about talent autonomy, creative freedom, and life after WWE.
Do you agree with Russo’s assertion that Triple H influences WWE roster choices based on personal preferences? And should Karrion Kross consider Russo’s JCW invitation? Share your thoughts below.
