I think Russo saw the Montreal Screwjob and knew he could get over as a heel.For the longest time we really only had one option in Canada to watch wrestling and it forced you to watch WWF. Then things became available and gave us the option to watch both WCW and WWF.
The beauty was once WCW started pissing me off I just did the natural thing and went back to watching WWF primarily. Still due to other lucky factors would watch the PPV's of WCW, but I really was picking and choosing how much of Nitro/Thunder I would watch.
Probably due to this I too never realized how short Russo was in WCW until I looked it up today. I really didn't realize until recently how little I ended up following WCW towards the end. There was so much that happened those last few years that I just didn't realize how much other garbage I was missing from WCW. In hindsight kind of thankful I didn't religiously follow WCW the way I did when I first had access to it.
