I haven't seen it yet, so I skimmed through it a bit. He brings up a few valid points, but I wouldn't say Christian was the biggest acquisition they've gotten in the past 5 years... I'd say Jeff Hardy was.

He makes some good points to be sure, but the announcer comes off as such a kiss ass, and Cornette comes off as ridiculously anti-WWE. Still, good listen.

Cornette does come off as being a little bitter but I can't say what he said isn't the truth.

Cornette's idea for what WWE should have done with Christian is exactly what they did when Jericho jumped from WCW, and he's exactly right. Christian should have been pushed to the moon to show the entire TNA what its like in the big leagues.

I'd say Jeff Hardy was. Same here. That popped in my mind as I read it. The only thing about that is Jeff Hardy didn't really do much in TNA, where as Christian was one of their biggest stars. I don't always agree with Cornette, but I definitely did here. |

i don't completely agree that he was missused by being put in ecw, but he's right in saying there should've been a link between edge and him, and also that the wwe isn't putting out stories with any depth. 'lapsed fans'...that sucks

He's right about Vince.
The man's a conquerer. Harder to take down than Mike Tyson in Punch-Out!

Cornette makes great points. My thoughts though, are that its hard for me to say that Christian has been burried until what happens in the Money in the Bank match. If Christian loses that then I will have to agree

Cornette's spot on about this one, its a smart business strategy that he pointed out, push TNA Stars to the moon and make others want to jump, in the process the Morale in TNA would go down and Wrestlers wouldn't be giving it their all because they know TNA won't make them the star that the WWE can. It'd be like the Locker Room destroying itself.
I'd say already WWE's dropped the ball with R-Truth, i think WWE has a mindset that they'll do some Introductions and just throw Talent into the pile without giving them development, WWE's always done this and never gave others who aren't either in a Storyline the WWE is heavily backing or isn't going for a Title ( Which nowdays its the same bunch of Wrestlers over and over again ).

Angle was easily TNA's biggest acquisition. Jeff was no where near as big as he is now when he was brought in to TNA.

Cornette makes excellent points. He has always had a great mind for the business and can call a spade a spade.
