There's only two times wrestling should involve dicks: when the ref gets distracted and the heel kicks the face in it, and when the white meat babyfaces are using theirs to gently caress the rats and keep the crowds strong for the next spot show.

Cornette used to work goofy comedy poo poo all the time and as far as I know he's ok with that. He views any sort of 4th wall breaking or wink at the audience as industry exposing because he's old and hates that things change and that some people could actually enjoy wrestling being self aware and openly poking fun at itself from time to time

Also he's turned it into his gimmick like oatgan said but there's no reason to believe he doesn't stand behind the things he says

Yeah, I think Cornette is in the Vince camp of "has some very good ideas and is hilarious to listen to, but God have mercy on you if he has to change his mind about something".

If a friend walked into the room when I was watching wrestling I'd be much more embarrassed if they caught me watching SMW than if they saw me watching the Joey Ryan video. I'm glad 'rasslin' is pretty much dead.

not sure that makes sense. seems like his face being famous would just compound with his existing fame since it is his face which I would argue is the single physical feature that is most often used to identify someone. if there are any people that are aware of him outside of botchamania, and surely there are many since he has been in the business for a long time and probably was known to older fans that don't follow a web video series, then the addition of those people to people aware of the face would disprove your assumption
