That Cornette rant, btw, is a nice example of why people shit on him and think he's out of touch.
The matches he feels are 5 stars are 20 to 30 years old. More of them closer to or older than 30.
He spends a good portion shitting on Omega based on what he saw 10 years ago.
Not to mention, outside of one spot, I don't think he complimented the match at all. I get that it's all subjective, but Jesus even if it's not your cup of tea, how anyone cannot watch Okada v Omega and think that it was a good to excellent main event match is beyond me.
Cornette is still talking like it's the 80s with the idea that you have to present it like a real fight. People know it's a work. Times have changed. It'd be like someone telling the guys in the 80s that they needed to replicate the old timey style of the 50s.
Wrestling evolves and what worked then doesn't work now. I feel like Cornette doesn't really get that, or he doesn't accept it.
