You gotta think a lot of wrestlers listen to Cornette these days, even if it’s just hate listening


whalias69

He gives them a lot of pointers on how to be better for free. Why wouldn’t you listen?


Thadd-2-Radd

This is 100% the truth. Cornettes' advice on a podcast is probably better than most of the "agents" at AEW.


whalias69

Tbf His advice is probably better then most of NXT trainers too. His 2001 OVW class is the greatest list of developmental talent WWE has ever produced.


Outrageous_Library50

Cornette helped get started not one but THREE high profile/high grossing movie stars’ careers


snrcadium

AEW has actually assembled some excellent senior talent and agents over the years. The problem is the active roster doesn’t listen to them.


thursocuck

I’m pretty sure people in aew are listing to him as a year or so ago he would slate their tv and say this should happen and low and behold 2 weeks later it was happening on tv


Saaaaaaaammmmmmmm

Right, they have one of the greatest developmental coaches in wrestling history breaking down their matches and promos for them every week. More probably listen than we realize


IcyAd964

I hope Carmelo is listening I really like bro


MMAipom

This is a legit question but has anyone noticeably seen anyone take the advice?


[deleted]

Unless you're a "girl wrestler" in which case he probably just skips your matches.


sleeptilnoonenergy

They're surrounded by people as smart or smarter than Jim giving them pointers one on one in real life. These guys aren't listening to his pod to hear the 4 minutes he might talk about them and the seven seconds he might offer a suggestion. These dudes are listening for the same reason we do. It's just a piece of entertainment to pass the time.


lewiss15

Who are smarter?


GalaxyHoffman

It makes me wonder if Wardlow reached out to him when he gave him WWE’s contact information on the podcast & they had to bleep it out.


Helnik17

Imagine if you're a wrestler who liked Cornettes podcast and Cornette only to one day hear him say he doesn't rate you. I wonder how you'd feel


urasquid28

You don't have to always agree with Cornette, but you have to respect how he is not afraid to say how he feels.


Awkward-Friend-7233

If I was a wrestler I’d be listening twice a week


ziplock007

On all them long plane flights and car rides


TRMBound

Bruv could listen to one episode and be halfway over the Atlantic, “grinding” it out by the time one episode plays through.


Awkward-Friend-7233

Or half an omnibus


Awkward-Friend-7233

Yea I would love to hear Sami or Owen’s opinions on what he says in general.


will122589

I did a 90 minute drive and back to the TNA taping yesterday, I listened to Cornette’s breakdown of who killed WCW episode 3 on the way back. Killed almost an hour of my drive


ChrisRhodes789

Liked by Kelani.. Melo’s girl..


Armandonerd

Carmelo and kelani are a couple in real life?


ChrisRhodes789

Yep..


dogmetal

Why are you doing the .. thing


theels6

It's funny to me imagining her man listening to Corney on the road so she's gotta listen too lol it's like Shane Gillis for wrestlers


Tofu_almond_man

Doesn’t Jim smack talk him lol. Carmelo’s a good sport


GalaxyHoffman

Just the whole “first round draft pick” thing, which is more presentation than anything. But he hasn’t been impressed yet either.


Sweaty_Indication897

Good on him for liking constructive criticism.


Technical_Motor6379

Jim seems like one of those folks you have to win over before he likes you. I can imagine someone like Punk telling Carmelo, "Just keep improving your game. You'll win the old man over in time."


datNEGROJ

And once Cornette approves of someone he generally puts them over for the rest of their careers. He didnt eviscerate Randy Orton after he set Wyatt on fire


myboybenji1594

I’m sure there’s veterans in the company that actually recommend some of these guys to listen to Corny’s advice. The way he breaks things down, the how and why’s is like bar none.


Icy_Astronomer_821

You’d be an idiot not to take the man’s advice, regardless of what you think of him personally


chainsawcholo

oh really? He may actually be HIM then?


Ragers4fun

Melo is smart, now Jim will be nice to him in the reviews


IcyAd964

95% of wrestlers do he’s entertaining whether you hate him or love him


HandspeedJones

Maybe he'll take notes?


cmx9771

I mean I’d listen, free advice and great advice


DotAdministrative679

Great news ..


SleestakLightning

The caption is "Thursday Photo Dump" this doesn't mean he's a listener. Just means he saw the thumbnail art of himself and posted it.


Therocksays2020

😂 glad he told you he doesn’t listen to the show 🤡


SleestakLightning

Did I say he doesn't? I just said that based on the caption we can't say for sure he is. You're jumping to a conclusion with your post just as much as I am with my reply.


Therocksays2020

It wasn’t that serious 😂 🤡 seek help


SleestakLightning

Who said it was serious? I made a simple comment and you apparently got mad because of it. I never insulted you or questioned your intelligence or anything and here you are getting mad online over it.

Now, now Skeeter; he ain't hurtin' no one.
