It's been said alot (or at least similar things have been) but it's true, Cornette is great for old territory knowledge or stories of when he worked in the business, but anything past about the year 2000 he's pretty much clueless about.

I would argue that he's clueless about the business past 1989.
 
The guy who ran the OVW class of 2002 that gave us Brock Lesnar, John Cena, Randy Orton, and Batista is clueless about the business past 1989? Hard disagree.
 
Will this year's All In get to last year's attendance figure? The real number, not the fake number.

How much of that was really him though tbh?

Good question! I haven't checked out much of his podcast talking about his role in OVW beyond the time he discussed hating some big tall bland guy who he had Batista squash at a live show (the guy went off-script and cut a heel promo on the crowd despite supposedly being the babyface, I'm sure others will know this story). Still, even if it was a small role, it's enough to go to show he didn't lose his touch a decade and a half prior.

All I'm saying is he wanted guys like batista to just stay a silent monster despite his massive natural charisma that got him over as the number 2 face in the RA era or brock to be a country boy face despite being one of the most natural heels ever

Corny will Corny. All to tell a story, and get views. He should have taken part in Who Killed WCW, just to see him go crazy in 1999-2000 WCW, and the Oklahoma character.

The Rock doesn't like Corny anymore. Ever since he let Brian Last get his chops in on Dwayne it's been downhill between them.

Those guys wouldve made it without Cornette.
Let's not act like The Prototype and Leviathan gimmicks were setting OVW on fire either.



Cornette's best contribution to the business is his heel managing, second only to Brain.

I read somewhere that they were going to bring up Brock Lesnar as an immobile Russian heel before Paul Heyman got a hold of him.
 
John Cena was days from being fired before he said fuck it and started rapping.

Cornnet is a boomer faggot who can't let go of the 70's and 80's and should not be given credit for any of the stars that came out of OVW.
 
Lest we forget that Santino Marella wouldn't be where he is today (tna?) without have annoyed Cornnet to the point of violence.

honestly makes me wonder what would have happened if Vince cut Cena in 2002, Brock was going to leave in 2004 regardless, theyd be in a serious pickle after WM20

I knew they'd change the stage location after the first event, but I didn't think it would be that extreme in a shift.

Apparently the set-up change is being done because the Queen of the Universe, Taylor Swift, is having shows in Wembley around the same time as All In and Jarrett isn't going to put up with his babysitter having to size down her 17 billion sold out shows because some gay wrestling thing can't break down their stage quickly enough.
