Jim Cornette is once again stirring the pot with his signature no-holds-barred commentary, this time turning his focus to WWEās weekly programming. On a recent episode of The Jim Cornette Experience, the outspoken personality criticized WWE SmackDown for being technically sound yet lacking any real energy or excitement.
Cornette described the product as āprofessionally doneā but ultimately āboring,ā remarking that fans sit through hours of programming for very little payoff. He stated, āThe reason for that, in a lot of cases, is because where the WWE is just kind of fking boring, professionally done, not quite as many⦠production fk ups⦠itās just kind of there and it takes three hours.ā
Although SmackDown is a two-hour show, Cornetteās remarks seemed to cover WWEās entire weekly schedule, including Raw. He argued that fans only receive a few worthwhile moments amid hours of content.
āIt gives you about 15 minutes of entertainment,ā he continued, contrasting WWEās steady format with AEWās often chaotic approach. āWhereas on the other program [AEW], itās like trying to run through the Zapruder film⦠Itās so unprofessional from so many different standpoints⦠that one must try to keep up with these things as best we can.ā
Cornette added a sharp analogy to punctuate his criticism, likening WWE to a ātelevision version of Somas,ā suggesting the content is dull to the point of being mentally sedative.
His comments are already fueling fresh debate online as fans continue to weigh in on WWEās current creative direction compared to its competitors.
