  People can say whatever they will about Jim Cornette whether as a wrestling personality or a person, but the guy’s love for wrestling cannot be ignored

  Cornett is a true wordsmith. “My lawyers will sue you until you’re so broke you can’t even pay attention.” Is fuckin crazy😂

  SMW was the prototype for what OVW and eventually NXT became.

  Tim Horner thinking he was going to be the top guy is hilarious.

  I&apos;ve watched around 40 episodes of SMW, the biggest takeaway I have was everyone from the top guys to the lowest of low jobber could work. You believed every match was a fight and it mattered.<br><br>Thank you for this video

  I remember watching SMW episodes on public access TV...in Connecticut. I can say that I got to see legends in the making before a lot of people in my area did. Thanks, Jim.

  I lived in SMW&apos;s region, and the only way I even knew they existed was because I&apos;d read about them in PWI while my mother or grandparents were shopping for groceries. When P2P&apos;s came out, I got to download some of their tv tapings and watched for the first time. Unless you&apos;re an insanely avid wrestling fan, there&apos;s really nothing you&apos;d enjoy. Of course I was one, so it was kinda cool to see Cornette, Dutch, R&amp;R Expresss, and a few other old WCW heads. But I put it in the same category as late-80&apos;s AWA. Just way behind the times and hard to watch at times.

  I’m a big Cornette fan and am a regular listener to both of his podcasts. I really enjoyed this video.

  SMW is where Terry Funk did his first moonsault against Bullet Bob Armstrong.

  I lived in eastern Kentucky , and I went to many, many SMW house shows. It also aired on local TV late Saturday nights. I&apos;ve been to WCW, WWF, WWE, and AEW house shows, and SMW was my favorite. I loved every show! ❤️
