It's why he's compelled to double down when he says poo poo like this. Controversy Creates Cash, he'd be an absolute irrelevance if he didn't loudly poo poo on anything popular.

I am thankful that the pervos at Beyond Wrestling got wrestling's monetization all hosed up so podcasts like this make much less money than they normally would.

or don't?
you ever notice how the loudest and most obnoxious "method actors" aren't half as good as people that are just good at acting

like Cornette in spite of everything only has second place (or lower, if he's even there) on any wrestling podcast ranking I can find and his youtubes get outshined by top 10 lists from WhatCulture

you gotta wonder if it's worth it, all his hate and vitriol and accusations, for second place sometimes

edit: and this is actually a better spot than he was in last time I got curious

Largely people who'd call themselves "wrestling fans" but don't actually watch any wrestling, because they earnestly believe all of Jim's bitching and moaning instead of developing an opinion for themselves, or watching one of the myriad other avenues of wrestling that isn't WWE or AEW.

I've edited the OP to add in some of the descriptions of Cornette from the feedback thread for newcomers, as well as to add this thread's one golden rule:

:redflag:Defense of Jim Cornette and his hateful views will not be tolerated under any circumstances.:redflag:

If anyone would like to suggest anything else, I'm all ears, but I think that's all that's necessary right now.

Is a cheeseburger towel a towel made out of cheeseburgers, or a cheeseburger incorporating a towel ... somehow?

Or perhaps the more sensible option of a towel featuring an image of a cheeseburger.

if only Cornette had played Clannad or Tokimeki Memorial instead of just talking about them for weeks maybe he would have developed the base level of emotional intelligence to not be the way he is.

I just worked out that this is the Horrible Scrote guy

The Hausu Usher posted:

Is the discussion here about how it is - or about acknowledging things could be better; and that perhaps some people need to adjust to encourage a wider posting community (if that's what is desired)?

This knee-jerk conspiracy Cornete thing in particular is crazy. It's like half the goons in the forum must be spending a lot of time on his website and be 100% up to date on his opinions in order to keep up with what other people are saying and be in a position of accusing them of "repeating Jim Cornette lines". I think justifying being a horrible scrote to someone because you accuse them of being a bot for a podcaster is an attitude that needs to be dropped going forward if things are going to get better. Sometimes it's just someone with a negative opinion and if they can be grouped in with a pariah of the PSP then it's easier to shut them up.

If someone is genuinely trying to troll your favourite hobby then report to a mod, if it's consistent block them. Don't get out the whiteboard/red string or start rounding up a posse.

Maybe he's mad that Eric's doing the legends grift wrong. You're not supposed to actually do wrestling-related poo poo, you're supposed to sit in your in your house and talk about how much wrestling sucks unless it's done exactly the same way it was done in South Carolina in 1979!!
