As the head writer of WWE’s popular “Attitude Era,” Vince Russo wrote twisty storylines for superstars like “Stone Cold” Steve Austin and The Rock. But now he’s in a feud with its own wild turns — one of which has cost him his relationship with PodcastOne, the network that until recently hosted his many shows packed with wrestling commentary.
Russo said PodcastOne canceled his channel after wrestling blogger Ryan Satin accused Russo’s fans of threatening to kill his girlfriend when Russo and his “Castrating the Marks” co-host, Jeff Lane, mocked the couple. A “mark” in wrestle-speak is a fan who takes wrestling much too seriously.
