Why is it always the most irrelevant nobodies that have never achieved anything in wrestling that talk about how wrestling should be booked?

all of those guys were at least relatively successful. Not top tier but far from bottom tier.

Cornette has achieved as much as a non-wrestler can possibly achieve. you want him to win belts or be world champion?

He ran one, SMW which was a territory and still got a milly, plus launched many successful careers and had revolutionary storylines like the New Jack stuff, to the point where Vince hired him after SMW couldn't get a national tv deal due to the wrestling crash and the investor pulled out becausw that was his goal, but then Cornette went on to help make WWF a more serious promotion which helped lead to the Attitude Era where he was also a factor behind such things as turning Rock heel and helping Kane develop the character. After that he worked at a very successful OVW which did good shows for a developmental, and gave the industry tons of future stars. After that he helped RoH get the tv deal which kept them alive and put the pieces in place to work with New Japan which led to the industry changing again.

I don't know. You'll have to ask Meltzer, Alvarez, SRS, JDFromNY, Bix, Cuckculture why they themselves do that constantly. As for Snow, Disco, and Road Dogg. More over and dimes as midcarders in the '90s than guys are as "main eventers" today.

Why is it that people who relentlessly talk about Jim Cornette always call him irrelevant?

Quoted By:

Cornette was on booking committees in the two biggest companies ever and he booked the biggest company's most successful developmental brand ever. He's more qualified than the Meltzer/Alvarez types, isn't he? And if fans can talk about how things should be booked, why shouldn't ex-wrestlers?

How did they never achieve anything though?
You're not some mark who thinks not being a fake world champion actually means you don't know anything about the business you work in...are you?
