He worked closely with Delirious, but he became a scapegoat for ROH fans. This is where the "Cornette's an old out of touch man" stuff came from. Then you listen to his ideas and you're like "Wow, that would have actually been really cool if they would have just done Cornette's actual idea."
Never saw the shoot video he did but remember a bit about him wanting to make some drastic changes to ROH.

Him constantly rubbing people the wrong way and his hot-headed reputation ended up killing whatever goodwill he had for those plans. Same for his views on certain wrestlers even if they were actually right in the end.
