TNA Co-Founder: TNA Needs To 'Cut The Cancer Out'

TNA co-founder Jerry Jarrett had some strong things to say about what he thinks is wrong with TNA's creative direction during a recent interview with PostandCourier.com:

"Until they make radical surgical changes in creative, and unless they get some people who comprehend the wrestling business, they are doomed to be the financial drain on Panda [Energy] that they are now and have been since inception. The core of their problems is the creative development of their product. They have to cut the cancer out."

Jarrett then named Vince Russo by the name as the cancer he was referring to:

"I would deserve the label 'stupid' if I had made the decision to hire Vince Russo. But I made the horrendous mistake of yielding to my son's (Jeff) wishes.

"He obviously has qualities that I don't recognize or understand. How can a person who has a 15-year history of failure still keep a job?"
