Mike Tenay was slightly better at hiding his disinterest than Bobby Heenan near the end of WCW's life cycle, but the future TNA great gave the game away with his face above. That shot is captured from a show one week after Vince Russo captured the WCW World Title in a cage match vs. Booker T on the 25 September 2000 Nitro.

Y'know, the same guy Vince had campaigned to push months earlier.

Goldberg speared Russo through the structure, so he was handed the belt by default. One week later, Vince decided he wasn't a wrestler (despite repeatedly booking himself in featured matches) and the strap was declared vacant. You surely know by now what happened next. Booker T won it again to restore order.

Excellent.
