>>10915009Dutch said it best. He's a "tv writer" whilst others like Corny considered themselves "bookers". His job is to produce ratings, which he did absolutely, no denying the facts here. I believe the problem however comes from how he did it. He would hot shot a lot of wrestlers, ruined a lot of legacies, had crazy angles like miscarriages on tv, constant affair angles etc. If you're a wrestler and you're biggest draw was doing an affiar miscarriage cuck angle then you're not really going to have a long term career are you? Corny and the "bookers" main jobs were to sell PPVs and Merch. Which is what they did best with very long term story based booking, and why he hated the week to week short term hot shot booking russo did. The main argument to be had here is if tv ratings denote good wrestling shows. Arguments can be made for both sides on that.
