ORIGINAL: Well, this was inevitable. Vince Russo has filed for a restraining order against Jim Cornette, accusing Cornette of stalking him. You can see the first page below via a picture posted by Cornette to Twitter.
Cornette and Russo have, of course, always had animosity toward each other. But the situation has escalated in recent weeks after Cornette, Eric Bischoff and Michael Hayes discussed Russo in their Table For 3 episode. Russo then went off on Cornette on a podcast appearance, which prompted Cornette to issue a challenge to fight Russo. It’s gone back and forth ever since.
According to sources, the order lists Terry Taylor and “the public” as witnesses to the stalking and harassment, specifically pointing out the June 15th podcast by Cornette. Taylor was an executive at TNA when he forwarded an email from Cornette which he said that he dreamed of killing Russo to Russo himself. The order claims that Russo was also “publically” threatened.
According to the site, Cornette was served at his home in Louisville on Wednesday evening and has been order to stay away from Russo, Russo’s wife Ann, his home and his place of employment (which was not specified).
Golly, VOLDERMORT just filed a Emergency Protective Order on me. I can’t hang out with him anymore! pic.twitter.com/jSx9CEFj0F
