The Most Heated Wrestling Shoot Interviews

Спорт

A shoot interview is an interview that is conducted out of character with a wrestler, promoter, manager, or other insider generally being interviewed about their career and asked to give their opinion on wrestlers, promotions, or specific events in their past. Back in the day… there was a huge market for wrestling shoot interviews. I remember the second any wrestler left WWE, everyone would be waiting in anticipation for their shoot interview to see them absolutely rip into the company and anyone else. Shoot interviews nowadays are definitely not the same… back in the day, they were BLOODSPORT. Today we’re going to be discussing some of the most heated wrestling shoot interviews.

    Russo was head writer during the WWE's peak period "The Attitude Era". Jim Cornette was a two-bit manager who has been fired from every company he has worked for. You have shown that you have no love of professional wrestling. Piss off and go and follow something else. You won't be missed, and neither will Jim when he dies (which hopefully is sooner rather than later).

They featured NWAs champions at the time, Chris Candido and Dan Severn during their Heavyweight title reigns and Rock and Roll Express during their Tag title run. Likewise, Cornette and SMW talent appeared on NWA shows. So they weren't an NWA affiliate, per se, like ECW was originally, for instance.

    You gotta understand the context of Cornette's hate for hardcore wrestling. It specifically made business difficult for him in the early 2000s when he was promoting OVW as the Kentucky state athletic commission came down hard on wrestling as a whole as a result of Ian Rotten's IWA Mid-South. Ian was able to promote in Indiana with little to no consequence, but Cornette was left to deal with the strict rules and bad press as a result of Ian Rotten.

Especially if every match was like that. People don't realize that ECW was loaded with some of the best in ring workers of all time on top of the hardcore rules. Sure you had guys like New Jack and Sandman who strictly relied on weaponry, but then you had guys like Eddie, Benoit, Jericho, RVD, Mysterio, Sabu, Jerry Lynn, Stone Cold, etc etc. Those guys were putting on great actual WRESTLING matches along with smacking each other with kendo sticks and putting each other through tables.

Though, if they got rid of it tomorrow, no one would even care. Hardcore/deathmatch wrestling is only cool if youre 13 years old. Then when you mature and develop mentally, it becomes apparent just how shitty it really is. Objectively, Onita was the only person to do it right. The gates that he was able to draw plus the right amount of spectacle with good drama. To put it lightly, everything else is trash.

    Yeah that part with his father confronting him on the phone. It’s like fuck man plus as the clips of him doing all the stunts he did. It makes you realize how much pain he was doing all this night after night. His dad I could tell just it all just gutted him knowing his son could’ve been so much more then ending up like this.😢

    4:55 I'm with Jim Cornette on the deathmatch wrestling. I don't mind Hardcore matches or stuff like that (Love Mick Foley matches against Triple H at Rumble 2000, Orton at Backlash 2004 and Edge at WM22 for example) but deathmatch stuff is cringe and too far.

    I'd say the reason shoot interviews aren't as big now is because wrestling itself isn't as big as it used to be and also because of the internet there really isn't a curtain to look behind anymore. Also, guys like Cornette now have their own podcasts which you can listen to for free rather than having to buy a DVD...if you could find them.

    For the record, Cornette doesn't hate hardcore wrestling. He hates the indie garbage "deathmatches" you see these tiny independent "promotions" put on. There's a difference, and Corn has explained it several times in a more prescient and succinct manner than I could.

    I am certainly not a fan of Jim Cornette, but he's absolutely right about that disgusting shit. It's not wrestling. Wrestling is making a match look like a fight or struggle while keeping each other safe, not slicing each other open like psychos. It's mutilation. Kinda like people chopping off perfectly healthy body parts so they can pretend to be girls when they aren't or guys when they aren't because you are what you are when you're born. Unfortunately, reality is reality and you can't change your chromosomes by mutilating yourself
