Russo claims responsibility for Montreal screwjob

[Pennyroyal_Tea (admin)]

The Vince Russo autobiography has just been released by ECW Press. I am currently reading it and it's interesting to note that Russo takes credit for coming up with the spot where Shawn Michaels puts Bret Hart in the Sharpshooter, setting up Hart getting screwed in Montreal. Russo claims he didn't know if Michaels was in on it, but was and Vince McMahon protected him by keeping his distance that night. So, now we have another person taking the credit for the idea as Shawn Michaels says he suggested it to McMahon, while other accounts have McMahon declaring they needed to do it. This is really getting to be like the JFK magic bullet and the 10,001 theories. I'm waiting for the tell all book that declares Bret did it to himself.
