Joey Ryan (Before we knew he was a total creep. Though we REAAAAALLLY should have known. I'm not signing this f*** by the way. Just stickin' to kayfabe.)

I'm curious as to how a Jim Cornette Podcast would work in this hypothetical strange new world.
It's realistic that he wouldn't stop doing them but at the same time he's going to want to keep as much to kayfabe as is possible in the 2010's (very soon the 20's!) for the company he now works for and it'd make for a weird imbalance where he's going in deep on the backstage stuff in the WWE but trying to tell us that <insert AEW heel name here> really does believe what he said on Dynamite last week! Lol.
Though I imagine only one or two podcasts a month stretches out the potential content to a point where he can still give Brian Last a good show without too much awkwardness. Plus you'd have to think he'd get AEW talent he likes on for interviews and I'm pretty damn sure people would listen to a booker interviewing a top talent on a podcast and try to read between the lines.

Also thinking of using the question format of the drive thru for readers to "send their questions in to Jim" maybe after big shows and PPVs. But yes you are pretty much on the same wavelength as me on this. Jim is going to do his best to keep kayfabe alive and you'll never know what's a work and what's real
My personal disdain towards Cornette aside, this is a very interesting idea for a dynasty and I'm currently invested on how the shows will go. Good shit!
Please Note A Women's Division is Being Planned and will be built as the diary progresses. I've always done women's divisions like this in my diary. I like to pin down exactly what Im doing with the men first, otherwise I feel like Im juggling too many balls at once. Other additions and roster changes are likely to change, as, AEW is a new company. P;eople that were overlooked, people that turn out to be bad signings, the backstage dynamic between Corny and those he hates might influence other signings. We shall see.
Aaron Stevens, Adam Page, Alexander Hammerstone, Austin Gunn, Austin Theory, Brandi Rhodes, Brian Pillman Jr., Chris Jericho, Christopher Daniels, Cody Rhodes Darby Allin, Eddie Kingston, Frankie Kazarian, Homicide, Jacob Fatu, Jake Hager, Jay Briscoe, Jay Lethal, Jungle Boy, Kenny Omega, Mark Briscoe, Matt Cross, Matt Jackson, Maxwell Jacob Friedman, Michael Nakazawa, Nick Aldis, Nick Jackson, Orange Cassidy, Pac, QT Marshall, Richard Holliday Sonjay Dutt, Wardlow
