When it comes to Vince Russo, I have to admit that I am a bit of a fan of his work. From his contributions to the Attitude Era, making Screamin' Norman Smiley the first WCW Hardcore champion, and the Natural Born Thrillers to Ring of Glory, S.E.X. in TNA, and his interviews with RD Reynolds on Wrestlecrap.com, the former WCW World Heavyweight champion has truly piqued my interest with anything he's written or attempted.
Now, Vinny Ru has caught me again with another entertaining escapade through the World Wide Web. He has started a brand new blog page called PyroAndBallyhoo.com. Named for what he had written on the top of every script he ever wrote for televised wrestling, PyroAndBallyhoo.com is a pop culture hub with a unique viewpoint from Mr. Russo himself.

Only finding out about this site through the RD and Blade Show, I started scoping this webpage and got hooked immediately. There's a little bit of everything for everyone on this page. Being the blog with the list of 3 to emphasize my points, here are my top 3 favorite portions of PyroAndBallyhoo.com!
1) RUSSO REVEALS: 101 ANSWERS TO HIS MOST FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS - Yes, I gave my email away FREELY to Vinny Ru just to read this list. He answered every question in detail, and in his true Russo fashion, doesn't hold back. WWE, WCW, TNA, it's all in there.
2) HIS RANTS ON THE CURRENT TV PRODUCT - Russo's look at why Raw's ratings have been stagnant since 2001, in particular, have gotten some positive publicity for being a realistic view at WWE's issues with raising the bar to mainstream media again. His pieces on "The Turn" and TNA Champion Eric Young were eye-openers.
3) FANTASY BASEBALL TALK - I have gone on record privately by saying fantasy sports potentially ruin the love of actual sports franchises, but Russo's love of the fantasy baseball have started to start turn my view. Very descriptive stuff.
Besides those three parts of the website that are my favorites, there are also sections for pop culture, music, television flashbacks, and content from Mr. Russo's sons, Vince Jr. and Will. I am giving the 2006 Jon THUMBS UP to checking out Vince Russo's PyroAndBallyhoo.com!

Now, Mr. Russo, please go into detail on why D'Lo Brown never got love past his Euro-Continental reign in 1999 and into the main event scene.
Just kidding. Half kidding. 3/4 kidding.
