Opinion: 5 things Jim Cornette ought to do for a better 2020

#4: Interview people on his podcast

Since AEW Dynamite and NXT have begun their "Wednesday Night War," the main focus of Jim Cornette's The Jim Cornette Experience podcast has been on his reviews of the two weekly television programs. He watches both shows, generally spending more time skewering than praising.

The Jim Cornette Experience in the past has also had interviews with guests and recurring segments. As Cornette has plenty of long-time friends in the business, there is no shortage of people for him to get on the phone line for a podcast episode. After all, how many people within the wrestling world are personally liked by Jim Ross, Steve Austin, Chris Jericho, Diamond Dallas Page, Al Snow and New Jack?

As Cornette himself is an interesting interview subject -- check out those earlier-mentioned Sean Oliver interviews if you aren't familiar -- he knows the elements that it takes to be a great interviewer. In turn, when he is speaking with someone who is comfortable with him, the results are bound to be great. He doesn't have to employ a lot of the tricks other interviewers do in order to get the guests to open up about a controversial topic.

That's not to say that Cornette and Brian Last shouldn't review the weekly programs of AEW and NXT. In fact, for a change of pace, why not get some of those interview subjects to also weigh in on the current states of those companies?
