"I was blacked out" - Vince Russo recalls scary incident (Exclusive)

Vince Russo has recalled a scary incident during his time at TNA. For those unaware, he has appeared in the Nashville-based promotion on various occasions. His first stint with the company took place during the early 2000s.

During a recent episode of Legion of RAW, Vince Russo recalled how he was put into a chokehold backstage in TNA by one of the Harris Brothers following his infamous shoot promo with Roddy Piper.

"This is live TV. So, bro, they're laughing. They go in the back and tell Jeff (Jarrett), yeah, they come again and I'm like guys, 'I told you, f*ck you. Oh I'm sorry cuz F you, F you. I ain't going anywhere.' One of the twins put me in that chokehold, Chris. I was blacked out in two seconds. I was blacked out."

He continued:

"So, like, I want people to know when that works. I saw black... I got to tell you, you know, again, we bury everything. We bury everything. This was the best thing that happened all weekend long. Absolutely the best thing that happened all weekend long." [From 43:51 onwards]
