Loss Posted September 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2013 Cornette rants about the state of wrestling as we go into 1998. This is the most spot-on rant he has done so far. Wrestling fans watching a wrestling program want to see wrestlers wrestle, he says. Indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajtroma Posted September 21, 2013 Report Share Posted September 21, 2013 On a show where we had Goldust dressed like Baby New Year and thrown into a goddamn port-o-john, Cornette's words really screamed true to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Ridge Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 Yes, we all watch wrestling shows to see actual wrestling. He doesn't care for WCW, NWO, ECW or WWF. He respects tradition. It's a good rant but his response with the NWA didn't exactly meet expectations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenjo Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 On some of these rants Cornette was just being a mouthpiece for McMahon. I think it's fair to say that these weren't Vince's views on wrestling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soup23 Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 This did feel like a more sincere attempt at what Jim actually feels. In fact I think this was the debut episode of the Jim Cornette Experience. He gives a good rant that carries a lot of sentiment but I don't believe his stances are shared by the majority of the wrestling audience.

PeteF3 Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 Does *anyone* from the South like Connecticut? I haven't been there myself but man does that place seem to angry up the blood in these people. This is definitely Cornette shooting but all this *really* is, is a set-up for the ill-fated NWA quasi-invasion. I'm not a guy to fetishize NYC or any particular part of it but there's honestly a bit of over-the-top regionalism here that I'm not comfortable with.

Exposer Posted May 28, 2017 Report Share Posted May 28, 2017 This is the best one yet with Cornette saying there's no real wrestling anymore & just "Sports Entertainment" instead. He says in 1998 he's going to bring real wrestling back to the WWF. The start of the NWA invasion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
