Vince Russo Talks Nikki Bella Raw Segment, Brock Lesnar vs. The Rock at WrestleMania & More on Wrestle Reaction Show

Vince RussoVince Russo was a guest on the Wrestle Reaction video show last night after Monday Night Raw, with Frank Manzo and Joe Omega. The three talked about this week’s show, the potential of Brock Lesnar vs. The Rock at WrestleMania 31, the current creative process, and more. 

The following is an excerpt from the interview, which you can view in its entirety below. 

“It’s difficult for me to criticize people, but I try to do it in a nice way. Nikki Bella is not a good actress. Now, you have to understand, these people are wrestlers. Acting isn’t their forte. You’re asking them to be good wrestlers and good actors. Some people are just good wrestlers and not good actors; those are the people you have to work with more … They’re putting her in a pre-taped situation where, if it’s bad, they can shut it down and do it over again. Then what do they do? They put her out there in the ring, in front of the people, on a live show where there is no net, no protection, and she’s not a good actress. Something like that makes absolutely no sense! Look at the time we spent on that in-ring segment and at the end of the segment all we got was a shove. If the idea of that segment was for Stephanie McMahon to give Nikki Bella a Diva’s Title shot, well then when she’s in the back with Triple H, call Nikki into the office and do your business back there in 30 seconds. It doesn’t warrant a 12 minute in-ring segment where nothing happened and you made your Diva’s Champion Paige, the most valuable person in that ring, a supporting actress in the background. There was no point to that. At the end of the day, it was a waste of time!”
