>>10091610Cornette for all he talks about Meltzer, was basically propped up by him. When Flair got on the team, he asked Cornette to join his committee, but even Cornette admits he didn't do much in WCW and basically held papers for Flair.
SMW was a regional promotion at best, but so was ECW at the time and which one gets called more. ECW even turned in a profit in 98, it's afterwards that the checks started to bounce.
WWF? part of a team and during the time the company didn't drag money. He complains about Russo (some of which are accurate) but refuses to accept the fact that Russo did change things and can't accept that the company did more without Cornette, than with him. The Vince was the mastermind thing doesn't work when Diesel and Razor were booked under him and basically lost him millions until they jumped and made another company millions. This is the same Vince McMahon shit doesn't seem to apply to all the dumbass gimmicks he had in 95-96.
OVW? This is probably the peak. OVW was pretty entertaining, but this is the same guy that had a bunch of odd gimmicks for genuine stars and wanted niggas like Doug Basham over them.
TNA? He didn't do as much. Remember when he came in, Russo came in like two months later and he was relegated to production. He went to meetings, but he didn't actually book or write.
ROH? Terrible and killed their North-east business. He says he got them their deal which is complete bullshit. 90% of what he booked is seen as terrible. I don't mind what he said about Steen and Generico because they ended up doing it anyway, but everything else was terrible and he seemed mad that they didn't trust him (which they shouldn't have at the time). All-time terrible run and he blames it on some mythical office boy for ruining it, even though ROH made more before his run and later on again with the NJPW stuff.
I would say OVW, overall. But, he's a guy that you have on your team, not necessarily writing shit.
