It rules that Cornette spends all of his time alienated from the hottest game in town because he couldn't just accept that wrestling had moved on while the guys who's coat tails he rode keep turning up on AEW to call the Young Buck's cool and do Canadian Destroyers at 100 years old.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

He tried to ride their coat tails! He spruiked what a great angle him vs the Bucks would be for years and the Bucks just went "mah we're good" and it utterly broke his brain. The man is a carny who wanted a slice of the pie like he always got but didn't realise sometimes people don't have to give you a slice.

It's also that he decided he was going to build up this angle with the Buck without letting the Bucks in on what he was doing. Like, if he had called the Bucks and said "I'm going to start slagging you off all over the place, then you do the same to me, and then we can build to a match", the Bucks would've probably have gone for it. But his deciding to insult them for years, and then approach them and say "Let's do something!" is not the right way to due business.


Also, Tully Blanchard is a far better manager for FTR than Cornette would ever be.

A big thing with SMW's territory is that many people here still think wrestling is real. I know a lot of you won't believe me but I live here and go to local shows here and the crowd is insane and not really in a fun way.
I don't have experience with these people, but I'm going to speculate anyway. I think it's basically the same thought process you see in conspiracy theorists. By and large, they don't actually believe the things they say they believe. But they act like they do, because it's a cover for their real beliefs.

Like, the rioters that mobbed Capitol Hill don't really believe that the election was stolen from Trump. They know he lost. What they actually believe is that their side should win by any means necessary and they don't give a gently caress about democracy or elections.

Likewise, I doubt that anybody really believes wrestling matches aren't fixed. But they really want to scream at somebody and throw things and beat somebody up in the parking lot.

Counterpoint: many people are very broke-brained due to years of ingesting various types of chemicals and/or a common heavy metal that's found in old types of paint here), or having jobs that involve getting hit in the head for a living, or just being purestrain naturally stupid. They truly do believe pro wrestling is real. They truly did storm the Capitol because they think the election was rigged and stolen from Trump. They truly do believe that a pedophile ring was being run out of the basement (that didn't even actually exist) of a Washington D.C. pizza place. They're not fronting or putting on an act; they genuinely believe this poo poo.

I present to you as evidence Exhibit A: the My Pillow guy throwing away his company and fortune to try and prove the election was stolen from Trump; and Exhibit B: the people who follow and agree with a former pro wrestling manager and failed promoter, who routinely rants and raves about how the hottest company in the business right now is ruining the industry and will fail any day now, unless they follow his advice on how to run a wrestling company.

Yeah, those are just two lovely generalizations. In both cases the real reasons range from "full dyed in the wool true believer" to "knows it's all fake but needs the excuse for reason xyz" and all the options in-between those two. Some people join cults to take advantage or other people, some join for power, some join for friends, some join because it provides answers.

Mike Lindell isn't a lovely generalization, though, he is actually burning down his MyPillow empire for Trump, as did a lot of people who have similarly lost jobs, friends, and even family relationships over our former fat wet orange president (to say nothing of the ones facing prison time for storming the Capitol). They're the cult "true believers", and in this particular case I am prepared to believe the true believers far outweigh the grifters and the people thinking they can use the cult of Trump to their advantage.

People who legitimately think wrestling is real aren't cult members. They may have the same problems with handling cognitive processes as cult members, but they're (probably) not going to go storm Daily's Place just because they think AEW sucks, even if Cornette tells them to.

The thing with Cornette fans isn't that THEY think wrestling is real, it's that they're terminal third person effect cases. "Advertising doesn't work on ME, I'm too smart, but it works on everyone else." Just with "of course wrestling is a work, I'm not a mark, I know that, but all these other idiots still think it's a shoot and if they ever figure it out that's bad, so Kenny wrestling a nine year old is KILLING THE BUSINESS."

The key here is this is literally what Jericho and Omega did before their first match at the Dome. Callis hooked them up behind the scenes, Jericho started talking poo poo on Twitter about Omega, Kenny fired back and hey, guess what, it drew a poo poo ton of money and got everyone involved a massive payday.

And it doesn't even seem like they do anything else related to wrestling aside from listening to Cornette and Last complain about it. I could even respect if they just like spent all their time on YouTube or the Network watching old stuff from when they claim it was Good Actually but no.

It’s funny too because if you direct them to wrestling they might like. The Bloodsport shows, NJPW or AJPW they just don’t listen at all. They aren’t wrestling fans.

lmao that you snowflakes got so triggered by the truth that you had to hide and censor it to protect your precious little incel eyes. Anyone who dares to speak the truth that Le Dub is a smoldering pile of poo poo that continues to get worse week by week while you lap it up like the good little lapdogs that you are gets shouted down by people who are waiting for their starring turn on My 600lb Life. I remember when SA used to have a sense of humor about things and wasn't afraid to take a joke just as good as they gave it, now anything that even dares to hurt a fraction of someone's feelings is probated and banned. You all want to say that billionaires and capitalism is bad yet you all stan the failson of a billionaire because he's a stupid a wrestling mark as you all are. This is going to kill wrestling permanently in the us because stupid dipshits who should have been beaten out of training school on day one are in charge and have no loving clue what they're doing. There's only one way to do something and it's the right way; anything else is fake and phony and an insult to anyone who actually grew up RESPECTING the wrestling business. Buzz Sawyer could beat the poo poo out of the entire Dub locker room with one hand tied behind his back because he was a real man and not some limp-dicked homo who's more concerned with filming a vlog or steaming than actually getting better at wrestling. None of them are over, none of them will ever be over, none of them deserve to be in the wrestling business, all of them deserve to be buried face down in an unmarked grave. Jim Cornette, the only man left who's actually got the credibility to speak about wrestling much less book it, has rightfully pointed out just how big a pile of poo poo AEW is and yet you'd all rather roll around in piles of poo poo and say you love it than actually respect the business.
