Russo"Dixie Carter Did More Harm Than Good",How Much P
ower Hogan & Bischoff Had

On episode 18 of WOOOOO! Nation with Ric Flair, 'the Nature Boy'
interviewed Vince Russo. During the show, Russo said working
with Eric Bischoff was "difficult" and described Dixie Carter as
"underhanded".
With respect to working with Bischoff, Russo noted that the two
worked together for two separate companies at two separate times
and that while both made efforts to work together and be
respectful of one another, the chemistry just wasn't there.
"I don't think the chemistry was ever there, but, I think, when
we worked together, I mean, I think that we respected each other
and we both tried to make it work, but, I just think that
because we are two totally separate people, it was just
difficult."
According to Russo, Carter never told him that she was hiring
Bischoff and Hulk Hogan. Russo claimed that Bischoff was
originally hired to sit in on creative meetings as they
pertained to Hogan, since Hogan had creative control in his TNA
contract; however, Bischoff somehow became a full fledged member
of the creative team. Russo attributed Bischoff's ascension to
Carter's "bad habit of kind of working behind my back."
When Russo and Bischoff began having problems seeing eye to eye,
Bruce Prichard came in to be a liaison between Russo and
Bischoff. Russo said that Prichard was a mentor to him when they
were in WWE together and that he brought Prichard in to TNA to
return the favor. Unbeknownst to Russo, Prichard would meet
privately with Carter and Prichard would become Russo's boss a
week later.
"Dixie just did so much more damage than good just not being
upfront and not being honest and everything was underhanded and
behind people's back. I can't tell you how many times as my boss
she would tell me something and then it always ended with, 'but
you can't say anything, you can't tell anybody' and that was
just so hard to work under that umbrella."

I can't say for sure, but maybe she kept it a secret because she
didn't trust other guys to keep their mouth shut. Russo has
proven that he's not always competent when it comes to secrecy.
Honestly, it shocks me how much information leaks out of the
industry in general. Can't necessarily blame management for
playing things close to the chest.
