Former WWE announcer David Bixenspan tweeted a leaked 2006 email from Vince Russo to Dixie Carter, pushing for TNA to feature an “attractive, sexy, female executive” character to make the show “hip” and add a new dimension to the product.
Russo, who has had a long standing feud with Jim Cornette, also pushes for Cornette’s removal from television, since he is a 1980’s throwback rasslin’ cartoon character and conflicted with the edgier elements of the show like Kurt Angle and Samoa Joe.
