I agree with you 💯 %,There are companies competing for business and if one of the companies can prove they are better they will get more business if the product is better. Wwe is bad but AEW Is worst. At least Wwe has a comprehensive training system, AEW DOESN'T they constantly parade indi wrestlers which aren't good to begin with and looks like they went to wrestling school just to learn how to fall and then said I'm ready for the big time. Screw learning to work,psychology, hitting the gym,learning the business, etc.

In my opinion, Jim Cornette is the smartest wrestling pschologist. He knows how to do moves and when to do them. He knows how to make an idea work, how to engage the audience. In a different life, he would’ve been the greatest Hollywood director or screenwriter. I wish more wrestlers and promoters would listen to him, and actually learn something. But the problem is, with wrestling as with the world in general, everybody believe they know everything and are not able to admit that they make mistakes and need advice.

I disagree. His views were great for that time period, but now they are very outdated. It worked in 1980 because there was nothing else to do with your time. Today nobody wants to see this kind of product anymore, especially in a world with soo many alternatives. There are too many other ways to spend your time, like KZread, Netflix, Twitch, Podcasts, Video games etc.. Also with MMA existing, i doubt many people want to watch men in their underwear pretending to fight, when you can see the real thing in MMA. Wrestling can still be successful today, but not the style of wrestling Jim Cornette would like.

I recall one person, who mentioned that they voted Republican, saying in the comments one day, that they didn't care for his politics but they'd never let that stop them consuming great content on wrestling history. It's always refreshing when you see people who don't piss and moan in the comments about something they hate that Jim likes and vice versa. Sometimes you have to draw a line and if the negatives outweigh the positives for you, go find something that brings you more joy but if the reverse is true, just shrug your shoulders and just pay attention to what you like. Personally I'm a 'goes to church weekly' guy but if I'd never heard about Harley Race, his love of fire and Hogan fandom, my life would be less complete, lol.

Jim has said this many times before. A wrestling match needs to tell a story. A match should have peaks and valleys, moments of lulls and highs. If everything is full stop from bell to bell, there is no build-up. If there is nothing but high spots, where does end? Jump off the top rope? Jump off their partner? Jump off the cage? The high spots are getting more and more dangerous just to get that highlight moment. Goodwilly needs to go back to porn, or whatever he was doing that wasn't wrestling.

The big thing is that Kurt Angle acted like he was taking it seriously. Even when he acted goofy, it didn't feel like he was in on the joke. It was funny because he was being humiliated to the crowd who wanted to see the smug prick get what was coming to him. Kurt acting like he believed his shtick is a big part of why it worked. If he just winked and nodded at the camera then it would have sucked.

Jim is right on high spots, Mysterio is one of the greatest high flyers, most of his matches were fought on the map, using grapples and holds as well as kicks, his high spot was the 619 which he would use usually once a match, so Jim is right.

The way Brian goes all in with "Alright you four-eyed fuck" is hilarious.

You know it’s fake right? If it was real a 125 pound amateur would take anyone in the rock and roll express and put them in a pretzel in maybe 10 seconds. These are not the catch as catch can wrestlers. They are fake 80s wrestlers. They are not a Thesz or a Gotch or a Hodge or a Robinson. The 80’s pro wrestlers are as real as todays pro wrestlers.

I don’t always agree with Cornette, but I really enjoy hearing his thoughts. He speaks from his heart and I respect that and appreciate the chance to view things from another perspective.

On the "public experiences" thing, Al Snow does a good beginner class where he talks about why the closed fist punch is banned in wrestling and so is often used sparingly or for fire-up spots: because most of that crowd don't know what taking a slam, a suplex or a figure four leg lock feels like... but a lot of them know what being punched in the face feels like, so seeing dozens of worked punches that don't leave a mark and don't have any effect would just ruin suspension of disbelief.

Same goes for jericho's "creative freedom". No wonder why the evil empire wouldnt give him free rein.

Something Wrestlemania did right is that I think there might have been only 2 or 3 maximum finishers in 3 matches or something, everything else was 1 finisher and it was over, it was a breath of fresh air knowing it's not another 2.9 counts because the first 2 finishers don't matter anymore

Rest holds still exist, they're just during commercials.

Jim is totally right about high spots, small wrestlers, and rest holds.

He has substance to his points, but it's not like there is answer there. Promotions need to stay on tv, and audiences like jacked roid addicts, but they're not going to hold audience using the pace of the 1980's matches, because 1980's crowds thought pro wrestling is real...They even have pejorative name for customers...marks...That's not healthy business philosophy to deceive...and it's not needed because enough audience respects athleticism, if you don't alienate them...but there's civil war in the industry because it's art, NOT science...In story telling

Most likely an aew stan/puro hipster

Everything he said is true. He's actually quite good at arguing his points on this one. It's like his comments on the high spots, it's the impact each move has, not whether or not you can string so many together in a row. When AEW does stuff like that it undermines their product. It looks more like a scripted cheerleading routine than a wrestling match. If those moves were spread out and had an impact, if they were actually sold, I bet Jim wouldn't mind. All of his arguments are grounded in one basic argument. Believability. Everyone sitting at home knows that the outcomes are predetermined. Even when I was a little kid I knew. My dad tried to hide it but I told him it was "fake" (kid me). We all know but the point is we want to suspend our disbelief. How can I do that during a Bucks match where they're doing a cheerleading routine? Or a match where Marco Stunt wins against an actual wrestler? I normally don't comment on these videos but imo Jim killed it here. I don't always agree with Jim but he nailed it. Pretty damn good for an on the fly take too imo.
