JBL Responds To Recent Comments From Vince Russo

- JBL took to Twitter this weekend to respond to comments Vince Russo recently made about the "Legends with JBL" interview featuring Eric Bischoff. Apparently JBL is responding to the comments made in the video above, which was posted back in September. Below is JBL's response:

I saw the comments Vince Russo made about the interview I did with Eric Bischoff. I want to address a couple of points. Mr Russo said that Eric decided to appear on WWE programming-this is true, but at my request ,this was NOT Eric's idea, it was mine. Eric is a friend and I knew he would be a great interview. To take WCW from losing $10 million to making $40+ million in five years is one of greatest stories in history. I wanted to capture this...and we did.

I am very proud of this interview. I understand Mr Russo is not happy with the content of some of Eric's comments. I felt Eric was honest, I have known Eric for some time-I have a ton of respect for him. However, there is two sides to every story. What Eric did is incredible, I wanted this on record. For the record-I believe Eric.

It is no secret that Mr Russo and I don't like each other, but that being said-I have no problem asking him on a show and letting him say whatever he wants. Mr Russo and I have both gotten older and hopefully wiser-would love him on a future show. I have zero animosity to Mr Russo—I am getting old:)

The other point is that Eric made money on the interview-I know his pay and it was done for history and not for money. Same as I did some other great interviews that are 'in the can', I want to preserve history and show honor and respect to legends with this format, it's not about money...trust me:) It's some of the highest watched shows on the Network.

I asked for this format to record history and honor legends-Eric fits both. Proud of my friend, Eric, for what he has done, I thought I was fair with the interview. Would be honored to have Vince Russo on the show as well-and would treat him with respect as well.

BTW, I am not asking for Mr Russo to come on the show-I am not, happy if he did, but not seeking him to come on show. He seems to be doing fine doing what he is doing, and I am happy working with at risk kids in Bermuda on my days off and certainly not asking for more work as every day I do a network show takes away from work with kids who really need my help!
