Talk is Jericho Recap w/ Tony Schiavone – Leaving Vince McMahon for WCW, Working with Bobby Heenan, “What Happened When” Podcast, More!

Schiavone says things didn’t really work when Vince Russo came in. He thinks they were trying to be WWE light, when they should have been trying to do something different altogether. Once Ted Turner left the business was all but done.
The WCW video library was sold to Vince McMahon for $3 million. Jericho says if he had known at the time he would have pooled all his resources and borrowed money if he had to in order to buy that, because that was an incredible steal.

Schiavone talks about his infamous call, when he spoiled the results of RAW by telling the audience that Mick Foley had won the WWE Title. He says he was told by Bischoff to crap on Foley’s Title win that night and even though he didn’t want to do it, he did because that was his job. He called Foley in the days that followed to say how sorry he was, and Foley was understandably upset.
That sums up this week’s episode of Talk is Jericho. You can listen to the show yourself anytime here, and I’ll catch ya next week for another recap!
