Former WWE star Stevie Richards recently appeared as a guest on Insight with Chris Van Vliet for an in-depth interview covering all things pro wrestling.
During the discussion, Richards came to the defense of former WWE/WCW/TNA writer Vince Russo…
“Vince gets such a bad rap. I don’t understand it. I still don’t understand it to this day. And I’m a guy who worked in WWE with him, worked in TNA with him, and then obviously I work with him on the Smackdown Review with him and Bin Hamin.”
Richards brought up how Russo checked in on him when he was dealing with a spinal infection earlier in 2023:
“But when this infection happened, the one person — there’s people that reached out almost every day — but Vince, every single day or multiple times per day, reaching out, checking on me, praying for me, talking to me, trying to cheer me up. I could say, ‘Man, maybe if I put a few pillows under me, I could still do the shows from a hospital.’ And he was like, ‘No, don’t do that.’”
