10 Wild Wrestling Plans That Were JUST NOW Discovered
3. The Most Vince Russo Idea Imaginable
Vince Russo had certain quirks as a booker.
He enjoyed a show-long angle. He tried not to let wrestling matches get in the way of his wrestling programming, and while there's an argument to be made that a Raw match with minimal build need not go 25 minutes Triple H, ideally, the combined total minutes of action per show should comfortably exceed that amount.
Russo was also fond of bra and panties matches, evening gown matches, basically any excuse to parade scantily-clad women on television under the most brazen pretext imaginable, which makes his next pitch as predictable as one of his unpredictable swerve turns: per Cornette, Russo simply scrawled "Beautiful Buxom Referee" on the alleged document.
F*ck the idea of an authoritative referee somehow credible enough to call a match despite missing every heel tactic, which, incidentally, is a vastly underrated skill: who wants to look at Mike Chioda?
And so Russo pitched the "beautiful buxom referee", who would call the action right down the middle, throughly impartial.
Swerve!
The women in Russo's WWF were all manipulative shrews, so obviously they'd cheat on behalf of the babyfaces after feigning to have decent values.
