Vince Russo Invited To Something To Wrestle Live Podcast
This Friday a brand new episode of Something To Wrestle w/ Bruce Prichard will be released and will be taking a look at Vince Russo’s time in WWE.
Something To Wrestle’s Conrad Thompson was asked by a fan yesterday if he and Bruce would ever have Russo on their podcast to address many of the stories and allegations out there about himself.
Conrad responded to the fan with the following inviting Russo to come to their live podcast taping this Sunday in St. Louis:
No. If he has a problem he can come to STL on Sunday to respond on stage with a live mic. Instead we will get a podcast reply I’m sure

Russo got wind of the tweet and immediately responded with the following:
Unfair response, Conrad. I’m going 2 drive 4 hours, in order 2 “defend” myself. Come on, bro. Be realistic. Father’s Day. Rather B w/family.
— Vince Russo (@THEVinceRusso) June 14, 2017
What followed was a long series of tweets between the two where Conrad tried to negotiate the terms to bring Russo to their show this Sunday in St. Louis:
The show is on Father’s Day. The story yesterday was that “people are coming to see you and Bruce.” No guns. No knives. No $5,000.

Exactly and I wanted to respect that. But now your trying to say you invited me and I won’t come. Are you paying for trans/hotel?
— Vince Russo (@THEVinceRusso) June 15, 2017
I did invite you. You did pass. And yes we will. gladly cover your trans/hotel. It’s a couple hours from you. See you Sunday.
— Conrad Thompson (@HeyHeyItsConrad) June 15, 2017
Why would I drive almost 4 hours 2 do your show? Bruce didn’t come to CO 2 do mine. Internet works 4 me. Or, if you guys want 2 come here.
— Vince Russo (@THEVinceRusso) June 15, 2017
You asked me to pay for your trans. I said yes. What’s the problem?
— Conrad Thompson (@HeyHeyItsConrad) June 15, 2017
Let me get this straight. I’m driving four hours to come and do YOUR show, that YOUR making money on for FREE? Lot of things, but not a mark
— Vince Russo (@THEVinceRusso) June 15, 2017
So you’re backing up. Got it.
— Conrad Thompson (@HeyHeyItsConrad) June 15, 2017
Excuses for WHAT? If Conrad & Bruce want 2 give me part of the GATE-I’ll see if I can come on 4 days notice. If not-I’ll do it on-line FREE.
— Vince Russo (@THEVinceRusso) June 15, 2017
You can have every nickel of my cut for every ticket you draw. Tickets sold today forward, you get 100% of my end and I’ll cover your trans. https://t.co/cJijCamtKI

At this time it doesn’t look like Russo will be appearing at the show but anything is possible.
Bruce Prichard will be our guest today on the latest episode of WZ Daily being released at Noon-ish EST on Eric Bischoff’s IRWNetwork.com.
