I hit play all on the cornette playlist and giggle myself to sleep sometimes
Me too
If Cornette had a quarter of his vocal skill points redistributed to physical ability he would have been one of the greatest wrestlers ever.
Me too
I thought I was the only one. He's a democrat and I still love him
Nightly
Jim Cornette sold a piledriver for a week, but some of the current WWE people can't even sell their opponent's finisher for 5 seconds after receiving it.
Hell he sold it for a few weeks. They would never do just a pile driver. Both guys would have to be on the top rope and their would be 3 flips with it. That would also be the first move of the match today to. Watched you guys awkwardly helping each other on the top rope was a guy that’s receiving the movies doing more of the flips and the guy giving the move and they just hope they land right so the right guy gets the move done to him. After this move hits the pile driver from the top rope with three flips, the guy that is having the move done to him should know sell it and then immediately the guy they supposedly gave him the move should be a little dreary But not dreary enough to help the guy he just pile drive it off the top rope back up to the other top rope so they can do another move with a flip. Since this will be the eighth match on the card that they have seen the exact same thing from the first seven most people will be asleep but since this is an about what’s going on in the ring for today’s fans they start chanting this is awesome anyway.
Shut the fuck up, your kiss asss
Guys I love Corny and classic wrestling as much as everyone else here, but times change man. You have to progress and do new things. I see people on here saying that Corny needs to do the sole booking and such for a wrestling organization, again I love Corny and think he is a genius...but you'd all be saying its boring and the rating would tank. You have to have a blend, its as simple as that.
@@gator8509 Your kiss ass? There are two S's in Ass, by the way. For the love of god...
The current crop of WWE superstars are obviously so much tougher and better than passed generations.
43:18
Jim talks about my hometown. Ken Cantrell's wife Lisa used to substitute teach at my high school. Very nice people.
The fan following him to the hospital was hilarious. "Bullet Bob went to far...."
That was my favorite part of the whole segment 😂 A very concerned but very dumb fan.
The thing I love about Jim Cornette is his loyalty. It seems that if you do good by him, you got a friend and colleague for life. You wrong him in any way, you're fucked. Brutally honest with no filter. I wasn't really a "rasslin" fan, but thru his podcast and stories, I love looking up the stuff he talks about. He makes me a fan. One of the best minds, people, and characters in the entire industry.
Idk, seemed to start shitting on Meltzer pretty quickly despite Meltzer keeping his part in the Montreal Screwjob in confidence for like 20 years. Funny enough, it wasn’t long after Corny spilled the beans that he soured on Meltzer.
@@fuzzydunlop7928 Meltzer started it though.
you prolly dont give a shit but does anyone know a way to get back into an Instagram account?
I was dumb forgot my password. I love any assistance you can give me
@Joel Gunner instablaster =)
@Iker Maximilian thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and Im in the hacking process atm.
Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
I love the fact it's a form of entertainment that a statement can be made legitimately to say "people were hot and were waiting in back alleys for us....so I felt good about that"
I grew up in the SMW territory area, and went to a bunch of the shows with a great friend. Brings back so many good memories as Jim runs through all the feuds and programs from back then.
It's just too bad that Jimmy started Smokey Mountain back in the early 90s instead of the late 90s. Who knows, if Jim started Smokey Mountain just a few years later, but everything else stayed the same, including his relationship with the WWF to trade talent, then maybe he could've kept Smokey Mountain going.
I honestly believe that wrestling should be regional instead of national. Back when it was regional we had wrestlers who didn’t all look the same and wrestle the same, because they all learn from the same trainers and coaches. Now that it's a narional monopoly, all the wrestlers look the same, they wrestle the same, nobody sells anything anymore, and as a result, even though the guys are much better athletes today and live a much healthier lifestyle, the product isn't as interesting to watch.
I love these stories. I live in Johnson City TN and know all the places he's talking about. I also used to wrestle so I knew Tracy, Brian Lee, Dr Tom and more. Its really cool to relate to the stories.
Storytime with Corny = Popcorn & upvote.
I busted ass into my cupped hand and withdrew it into my mouth, i then walked up to my mom and burped into her face, she's a whore
@@jhot2477 heeey, looks like Cornette himself came to share some stories from his teen years!
Popcorny
Bossman obviously became Bossman again when he went back to the WWF in the late 90s. Brian misspoke there.
I needed something good to listen to before I get some sleep and this just happened to pop up. Thanks, perfect timing!
Me too friend
Same here gentlemen
The Ron Paul Liberty Report
Jim Cornette helps me sleep too!!!
I use these to sleep on most nights
I met Ken Cantrell when I was first breaking into the business. One of the nicest and most knowledgeable people I have ever gotten the pleasure to meet/know in the wrestling business. Him and lisa are great people
I love these deep dives into SMW!
As a 12 year old watching Summerslam 1993, and a 40 year old rewatching it years later, I thought the Steiner Brothers vs the Beverly Brothers was the best match on the card. Both me and my dad were laughing our asses off at the absurd finish to the Luger match.
That Luger match gave me gas.
Yeah that Luger celebration was strange looking back. This is was a great listen. Love Corny's level of detail and funny road stories etc...
Lex had potential, but he didn't care enough (like in WCW, he reads from a teleprompter & he yells "ACK! UGH! OOF!" EVERY time someone touches him... it's ridiculous!!
I know, @Mike The Scott , that's why i'm basing it off his ENTIRE CAREER!!
Corny, I'm in Welch, WV. You were here the day after my birthday on the date you were talking about.
As a kid I really believed Tammy Fytch went to Wellesley.
Thank you, Apter Mags.
I think she did go to wellesly, she used the sh*tter once.
Now she going to jail
@@OldSchool82
She prolly was locking dudes in from both ends like a pair of mfk'n Chinese Finger cuffs, sun
I love hearing the cards and gate,puts it into perspective what the wrestlers made working lil shows. BRILLIANT.
I miss real selling like your neck brace, even during the AE, after a big PPV Mankind, The Rock, Austin even HHH would come out with rib bandages, slings and big head gauzes. It made the whole thing feel like it mattered. Like there were genuine repercussions of their conflict.
Can't speak for hhh or Austin, but most of mankind's injuries were legitimately acquired during the shows.
@@bigdrew565 Austin a HHH have a multitude of well documented brutal injuries that all occurred on live TV for the most part
@@187btokes I wasn't gonna comment on something I wasn't really watching.
@@bigdrew565 Ya i was just saying since you said you didn't know. Not trying to make it seem like I'm trying to call you out for nit knowing lol I just read your shit and immediately replayed in my head Austin getting spiked by Owen Hart, HHH blowing his quad out in a tag match and others
@@187btokes I pretty much stopped watching wrestling mid 2000. I tried to give the current wwe product a watch, a couple of years ago but was largely unable to sit through more than a few minutes of TV.
Jim's angles are priceless.
Looks like the biggest mixtape is gonna drop by the looks of that picture
OK I'll add Tammy Fytch to the sure-fire future superstar list.
You could argue that she had a good little run, but nothing like her talents warranted.
Sadly, her failure is mainly on her.
Been listening to the podcast for a few days now and keep on hearing them talk about Eastern KY and I’ve kept on waiting to hear Pikeville. Good to know my home town was a big hit for them back in the day.
I'm from Whitesburg neighbor
Robert Fuller actually debuted in WCW about 8 days later managing Sid Vicious where else but Knoxville Civic Coliseum on wcw worldwide tv taping on May 17 1993!
Do you want to see my crippled foot?
Jim is the true definition of a wrestling encyclopedia. He knows things from 30 years ago vividly and at 43 I forget things in 10 minutes lol.
Corny is a total legend! The best thing going for wrestling today because of his stories!
And The Fact That Corny Took A Tombstone Piledriver From Undertaker Says Something
@@futuregohan4837 no it doesn't really say anything.
@@12345Yeah touch grass you tw@t 🤠
1:08:00 , the fan coming in the hospital room had me rolling .
So random but hilarious
kingkold wtf are you talking about
@@fins2334 he meant at 1:08:00
@@fatalsniper3413didn't notice that. Thank you
I live in Barbourville Ky! Nice to hear Jim talk about our town!
That photo of corny in the neck brace is the best thing ever
Jim ran the best independent promotion ever! I was there almost every night plus the tv tapings
if you like smw, look up usa championship wrestling. it was ron fullers tv out of knoxville. they did a lot of kentucky shows too. they lasted 2 years and a big chunk of 1988 is here on youtube.
And The Best Part Is That Undertaker Actually Is Listed As An Alumni Under His Real Name Mark Calaway
Thanks for the show guys. You're podcast has given me a knew wind to kick start my diet again.
the cult of Cornette is behind you. good luck!
Bryan Clark is the single most underrated big man from an offensive standpoint in the history of the business. His singles run as repackaged Wrath is a territory bookers wet dream. His offense was OVER. His run in Kronik is damn fine too.
We need to hear Cornette's take on WM9 and the Hogan squash that made no sense
Can't believe it's gonna be 25 years in a month since Luger slammed Yoko at the Intrepid.
Your point being?
Slam my ass. I said it then and I'll say it now, it was a hip toss XP
These days sound like so much fun. Just a great local wrestling show, well worth the price of admission.
Need more of Jim Cornette Looks at ------ of 19??
I want to give a SHOUT OUT to my Army Buddy, MARK "KILLER" KYLE.
why does it look like fuji is laying his head on yokozuna's arm?I'm disturbed
Now i can never unsee that
That face too
Krystal's is only edible if you're shit hammered drunk. Otherwise it's vile
They should have stuck the belt on Luger to see if he could draw. I mean, it wasn't like anyone else was drawing.
If Luger Didn't Work They Always Had Undertaker As A Backup Plan Then Again Taker Was Fairly Young
I’ve heard that the only reason they didn’t was the locker room was set to riot if they did, I’ve never looked into if it was true or not though. None the less I agree, when you see how over he was after being the first to knock Yokozuna off his feet it’s hard to say that there was no chance of him being a draw
Also with that ending to that Title Match to Summer Slam 93 with that celebration made no sense. It made Luger like he won the Title which he did not. With the Celebration to Brett Hart's match at Mania 10 where he won the title that made sense because because of the result of the match. Another reason why Luger didn't get the title is because of what happened with the Lex Express ordeal from what other Podcasts that I have listened to have said on the Summerslam of 93. Combined with the Steroids abuse scandal as well.
ohhhhnononononono
@@Fender178 An important point about the Bret win at Wrestlemania X is that - like the whole Daniel Bryan thing - it was a victory for what fans wanted over what those in power in the WWF wanted. The WWF weren't as hostile towards Bret as towards DB - if not for Hogan's backstage games, Bret would probably have had a solid 2 year plus title reign Oct '92 - Survivor Series 94 - but it did feel like recompence for the atrocity that was the finish of WMIX when Bret was shat on by Hogan's ego. At WM10, the WWF recognised that and said sorry to Bret and the fans, that's what it felt like.
Tony Atlas made the right decision from the description of what his gimic was gonna be.
Yeah Jim was tripping that sounded horrible. Also Im pretty sure tony wouldn't take such a degrading gimmick especially if you're not getting real money.
I really love SMW now. What a shame. But thank you anyway Jim at least it gives me something to watch now.
Frank Sullivan I
really would have loved to see the Regis/Kathy Lee interview it's not on youtube :(
What's Funny Is That Undertaker Has Appeared On There Twice 1991 & 1994 Taker Has Yet To Appear Again In 1995
His impression of Tammy hahahahahaha
Leading Tony Atlas on a chain! 😮 Wow. Notice Brian didn't go anywhere near that one .
Very entertaining thanks Brian and Jim
The Ron Paul Liberty Report
Good Mood Jim=Ratings
If Jim would've opened back up in 97 we'd be talking about him like Jerry Jarrett. With some better marketing and sales people he would've been able to keep it open the next 2 years or so until the wrestling recession was over.
I remember at one point the WWE had Yokozuna turn babyface and all of a sudden he could speak perfect English. It didn't make sense. Why did he need Jim Cornette to speak for him before that? Did he just lie about not knowing English because he was a lazy douchebag? LOL The storylines must make sense to be believable.
Cause they pretended he was Japanese when he wasnt. Of course he could speak english being Samoan
LOL Undertaker Can Speak Also But Was Never Given The Opportunity To Do So Until The Survivor Series 1994 Promo That Was When We Saw Undertaker First Speak
I am so glad you wore that neckbrace to sell the other story. I miss when people took wrestling seriously. Today people have a promo where they beat the shit out of each other and the next they are hugging on Twitter. Or should I say Shitter. And they are not in bandages or even seem to have a scrape on them. And they wonder why the business isn't doing well. Personally I don't get how people get over or get heat in today's wrestling. By the way I love that hallway you have Jim. I saw you in a video at your home with Bobby Heenon. I just thought that hallway was so cool. Viceland.
Smoky mountain 1993 sounds a lot like AEW today
There were Wargames type matches in WWC in Puerto Rico where the winning team was the ones left unhandcuffed from the cage..
To remember that my parents were too poor to bring us to Plattsburgh when I was nine to see them...but then to realize they were in Abay too 😂😂😂. Its a fantastic place to be in the summer but I cant see trying to do anything like a show up there.
I live near Alexandria Bay, which Jim commented on at 36:00. I can honestly say that Jim is right, if they were taping there, that was a REALLY bad place to go.
I notice Brian Lee & Brian Clark's careers often mirror each other. They were typically in the same place at the same time & later teamed together. I wonder if they were always close friends?
93 my mom bought me each ppv of the big4(that's all there was back then) , great time for an 8yearold, not the older smarks
Adam Bomb was an awesome gimmick.
Jeffrey Riley i thought it had potential
Adam Bomb was almost called the Ring Master but thought that he was not ready from a technical stand point.
Fender178 are you ribbing us
No. If you watch Wrestlelamia's channel he does a video about Gimmicks that wrestlers almost got.
Fender178 wow i gotta check it out.
I wonder when they were in Utica did they hear the expression steamed hams? I am guessing no because its a Albany expression but you never know.
Whydoidothis7 no mother, it's just the northern lights suplex
Simpson's joke lol
Well Seymour, you're an odd fellow, but you sure do steam a good ham
Upstate New York is famously culturally fragmented, so it's not likely.
Whydoidothis7 u
Id love to know the story behind Bouncing Buella's.
9:24 Can you imagine a roster where “Bullet” Bob Armstrong is the only guy who can maintain order 😂
Anyone pick up on Jim still having a few pair of handcuffs? I wonder what he's doing with those
cucumberandco he’s notorious for impersonating KY state police in his free time.
Jim Cornette time for a screen shot.
Ha, now we all got an answer we weren't expecting.
Bonsai!!!
That Graham Cauthen book cornette constantly uses as evidence for these matches he definitely makes up
Just went to 43:25 and Cornette is talking about a match where the loser had to drink out of a baby bottle. Put it on a pole and it could have been a Russo idea.
Man, I miss those days 😢
Good video
Imagine how successful Jimmy could have been if someone had sat him down and made him learn what advertising revenue and cable revenue were?
Pugiron Maybe but you've seen what happens when you focus to much on TV and neglect the dark shows
Yeah and it was a tuff period in the industry to start a company advertisements or not
Classic SummerSlam pic lol
Bubba would be Big Boss Man again. He would be Big Boss Man when he Came back to WWF in 1998 join the corporation.
Yokozuna had two managers in that pic?
I'd love to hear Jimmy narrate the bible.
Ive watched some smoky mountain wrestling on peacock and it is solid wrestling. Enjoyable.
I be luvin sum dat yardbird !
I know the plan with Lee makes sense, but if you had known about Bubba coming, you could have had him as her charge, join the Bruise Brothers and have them all dress like Bubba Rogers in the Skywalkers match; as the blues brothers but mean as fuck. With Tammy that could have been a knockout with their size.
Why all the dislikes?
drunkensailor112 some are people still believe Russo is responsible for the Attitude Era, some are fanboys of wrestlers he's badmouthed, and some are Republicans.
Miss these old episodes... Don't watch modern product so I don't care as much for new episodes.
I miss these old episodes because he could go 5 seconds without his Trump Derangement Syndrome showing
@@richspeck8932 I could care less about either party so it's whatever to me.
@@TheVoidofNothing11 I'm right there with you, but listening to that shit every 4 seconds when you want to hear about old wrestling is annoying. Especially when he goes off on gun owners and the NRA being inhuman pieces of shit, then tells stories about how many times he drew his own personal gun on people
@@richspeck8932 play in traffic trumpy
@@bobsappsjockstrap Perfect answer from an idiot. I didn't vote for Trump in either election so try again. Maybe actually try to answer what I said instead of just replying. I love when people like you prove me right
Sounds like Tony Atlas was going to be heel on the idea he was a black northerner in the southern United States Lolol
Tony atlas is from Roanoke Virginia
Timmy Hassell in the wrestling world he was known for being from ‘up north’ is what I’m saying
Gotcha my bad
Jim stole Rage In A Cage from Puerto Rico. Never knew he was a fan of that territory.
Man Of Steel Puerto Rico still does great stuff even today. Even though it’s in Spanish it’s still great to watch
Dutch Mantell booked in Puerto Rico and is one of Jimmy's good friends.
In the previous video on my feed I swear to God Jim Cornette said, "do you see why I avoid this as much as possible"
He said that concerning professional wrestling. Essentially, "do you see why I avoid professional wrestling as much as possible." Let that soak in...
Do you perchance have some sort of gripe with Jim Cornette....?
Didn’t Stan Lane commentate in the AWF?? In the mid 90’s??
Yeah he did came across mega creepy too lol
Corny makes Sheldon Cooper look forgetful by comparison.
this is the best you guys rock far out Jim hell yeah Brain.
That smoky mountain shit was TRASH
Imagine your top angle is between a manager and some 80 year old territory guy
Absolutely agree.
must suck being black🙈
Cornette is a genious and a walking wrestling encyclopedia but I don't agree with him on his bashing of trump supporters ,I can understand bashing trump but I don't get bashing people excersizing their rights.
If you think someone is completely morally bankrupt and terrible wouldn’t you also think people who support that person were stupid? Trump would have no power if he had no supporters. If you believe Trump is dangerous then his supporters are also dangerous.
@@duke_hugo 🤦♂️
i cant remember business deals i did in 2014. cornette's mind is a trap.
Derrick Clark if that's the case you shouldn't do business then. I remember every piece of biz i ever did.
Never know when someone from the past will try to sue you or something and you need to know the story.
daniel johnston Well, that's what financial records are for, along with satisfying the IRS's audit. (And that's why Corny knows this stuff - he has his financial records and journals to jog his memory.) Actual businessmen don't rely on magic memory skills - it's dangerous and neither the IRS nor the court system is impressed by recollection without written evidence.
Who's the guy with Jim asking the questions
Dan Parker that’s his co host Brian Last
Bully Ray
I Love BunkHouseBuck.
Well, wouldn't you know who won the pony.
15:00
Was smarter. Tammy isn't too smart these days
I'd like to hear more about this girlman?!?!
Vinny needs to give this guy some cash just for shits and giggles..i wanna see this fuckers promotion.
52:08
I love corny...a lot of good wrestling knowledge.
Bryan Clarke seemed like such a sure-fire future superstar.
I can't help to think that had he been mentored and nurtured, he might have made it big.
Sadly, he never seemed to be much of a priority.
Hillary popular???
amazing stories corny
As a kid I thought Luger was huge
Now, not so much
HELL YEAH ALEX BAY NY
