**** Cornette claimed he came up with the idea for the "Montreal Screw Job" which effectively killed Kayfabe forever.

Before that night very few people knew Vince was behind WWE, but after that night the secret was out, and if he did have a hand in the plot for what happened, then he created the monster of modern day pro wrestling that he claims to hate; which is fine and ironic.

Basically Cornette is the old man yelling at the young kids to turn down their rap music and to get off his lawn. Things will never go back to the style of wrestling he prefers and he just needs to accept that reality. Mainly because that style of wrestling wasn't that great to begin with, and kayfabe further died with the internet age. Sure it got pushed forward that night in Montreal, but it was going to happen sooner or later anyway.

As for the quality of AEW. As a person that watches all the wrestling shows every week, Raw, Smackdown, Impact, NXT, and New Japan, AEW is the best when you combine story and quality wrestling. New Japan has the best wrestling in the world, NXT is next, with AEW not far behind. Raw and Smackdown are hot garbage most nights, and the booking and wrestling are subpar. But don't listen to Cornette spew his hatred and out of context stupidity. Watch a show from beginning to end and then make a decision. Also, Ring of Honor is awesome too, but no television deal, which is a shame.
