Not enough gymnastics for ya troony?

That's your future at 40.
>Ya got Sparklebreasts McMuffin out there spinnin' 'round like Michelle Kwan on a tilt-a-whirl, lookin' like a KFC bucket filled with 20 pieces o' chicken shit all stuffed into a two pound ugly sack!
aew is still trash, no matter how much you seethe
I like when Jim lists off gates/crowd sizes from random Tuesday or Thursday house shows in the 80s, and then having that moment of realization
>Wait, that's more than AEW does for their live, high-budget, national TV show
>(It's not considered worldwide because it got cancelled across a lot of the globe)
Jim and his redneck groups were drawing a bigger crowd at the fairgrounds in Wendysville, Kentucky than AEW can draw in Houston, TX or St Louis, Missouri.
literally every gate i hear him mention has an absolutely pathetic draw of like 20k lmfao, what the frick are you listening to you cuck worshipper? probably half the reason they could get a few thousand in attendance was because tickets were $2 and the rednecks had nothing else to do in those days.
>a few thousand in attendance comprised of rednecks with nothing better to do
>still more attendance than an average AEW show in a major metropolitan area
gotta love that self KWAB YJG
dynamite tickets are far more expensive so they make tons more money than most of the cousinfricker towns corny was running in his peak
They run Dynamite and other shows at a loss. The venue, transportation, lodging, production, etc. costs more than they make at the gate
those tarps don't pay for themselves ig
Is that why they have to do those buy 1 get 3 free packages?
I know you're moronic but I'll help you out. Google "inflation calculator" and then input 20k in 1984 and see how much money that would be today. They were making that number 5 days a week.
There was also less competition in the territory days. What else would a redneck in the middle of nowhere Kentucky do? Maybe if NASCAR is in town you could go to that but otherwise wrestling was it.
This may seem crazy, but they also had other sports back then as well, and you are neglecting the fact that they ran weekly shows in towns. Modern companies usually only hit major cities every few months meanwhile territory shit outdrew everything but WWE running the same small town every week.
They didn’t have major sports leagues in bumfrick Kentucky
They have highschool and college sports which drew and draw more than MLB does now
Wrestling also dominated local tv, which had major sports on it as well
Kentucky had an ABA team with Artis Gilmore and other hall of famers.
And 20,000+ for college basketball games year after year..
"In the 43 men’s college basketball seasons since Rupp first opened in 1976-77, Kentucky has led the nation in average home attendance 28 times."

SMW and even a lot of the Mid South shows were in high school gyms in Redneckville, MS or Hillbillytown, TN and only drew a few hundred people
https://prowrestlinghistory.com/smw/index.html
i'd bet all in drew more people than every SMW show ever combined lmaoooooo
Fun fact: the wrasslin' was always free with admission to whatever else was going on, so they always counted the total event attendance as the gate. Wrasslin' at halftime during the high school playoffs? COUNT IT. Wrasslin' in the parking lot before the Friday night demolition derby? COUNT IT. That's why he's counting the daily attendance for State Fairs
OP:
>"Holy science! I can't wait til the banger between the master of the 650 splash, Chris "The Cyclone" Sharpe, against the master of the cartwheel canadian destroyer, Subarubishi "The 5-Star General" Yamahashi! It's gonna be an absolute frickin' banger fr! I can't wait to post on reddit about it."
Meds
fast spinning splash is one of the few flippy shits that i can kayfabe into being actually a poweful move.
Cornette's eventual death will please me
Based frick Cornette
Frick you and frick my wife!
Why has no one talked about Jim BTFO of AEW trannies?
?t=261
Remember the Wrestling no one remembers and never got over that's what wrestling should be - Jim Cornette
Cornette is a Boomer homosexual
AEW is nothing but mentally ill moronic trannies
I can't wait for some Black person with a 12 inch wiener to come frick my wife while I cry and type out a rant about Kenny Omega wrestling a blow up doll.
Could at least pick an actual town like Pikeville or something that actually had wrestling.
SMW never paid for their own tickets or lied about ticket counts, and didn't run at a loss, lmaooooooooo
>and didn't run at a loss,
Yes they did. That's why Jim's money mark Rick Rubin shut it down.
This explains why he's so bitter about AEW. Tony started a promotion that drew big stars, big gates, big ratings, and big money - exactly what Cornette wishes he could have done all his life - by using guys he hates. Sadly he never truly got what draws, past 1998.
For as much as Corny knows about wrestling, why does his knowledge of the business stop just before the millennium? He is truly trapped in the past.
Corny is tsundere for Kenny and it's my favorite part of his hate for AEW
No, he stopped funding because he wanted a national tv deal and they didn't get it. SMW closed with no debts and everybody fully paid. Find one person who claims SMW didn't pay them.

>and didn't run at a loss
>Smoky Mountain Wrestling (SMW) closed in December 1995 after years of operating at a loss and losing financial backing
corny marks are as low iq as the hillbillies in the towns he ran rofl
I like older wrestling much more than newer wrestling.
this could main event any arena in the south back in 74 and the crowd would be electric
It couldnt and it wouldnt because this shit looks fake and all moronic
That’s literally what wrestling looked like in Jim’s day.
it literally wasnt. men had higher testosterone back then, they looked huge and mean. not these dysgenic looking lot
Here's some match from 1984, must be some boomer filming his old VHS recording off the TV. It's got a bunch of those famous rest holds too
easily mogs 99% of modern matches
It would kill the town
a bunch of jealous losers mad about a cuck. Fricking sad.
Arenas weren't called gay corporate shit until like the last 20 years. It would be like the General Methuselah T.E. Jackson Memorial Armory, and he would have been involved in one military action in the second Barbary War where he rounded up a bunch of women and burned them alive to lure out a suspected enemy sympathizer, then have been promptly court marshaled and executed for something unrelated.
Also, I know you were trying to be a smug little moron, but Bobby Bill is a dimes name.
I Know right? I'd rather watch Akira Torizawama vs Shinji Kaioken in the Mitsubishi Arena.
why did this thread piss of the console warriors so hard? They took it so personally.
cornette is a clown who's failed miserably at every job he's had in the last 30 years and i love shitting on him, simple as
dimeless resthold man feuding with dimeless flippyshits
