That thumbnail reminds me of when Dale Gribble from King of the Hill was a server at Bazooms 😂
Basically from 1995 to 2005 I watched all PPV events at Hooters. It was a great way to watch these shows with a group of friends.
Those Hooters girls weren't your friends.
@@DenkyManner boom roasted
@@DenkyManner Brilliant 👏 you win the Internet for the day.
Same here. I couldn't afford to pay for the PPVs, but I rationalized that I could afford to spend it on the PPV AND food and drinks. Also, it was a lot of fun watching with an audience.
Same where I lived my wife was more then happy For me to go to local bar restaurant that had PPV in 1996-1999Hooters I started going to watch PPV starting in 2000
I heard Rikki Rockett and pictured the drummer from Poison getting in the ring
I was thinking the same thing.
I like this type of segment. I want to hear more of these and more of the old time programs as well.
yeah, this is great stuff. I'd rather hear Jim talking about stuff he loved than complaining about things he hates.
"Brakus... Nice kid". The guy was 35 at the time
Okay, we need this as a regular segment. This was fantastic!
WWE should publish their agent reports in a book. Year by year since 1984
Why not since 1482?
There is a good chance that WWF shredded the agent reports years ago. I would like to see the agent reports from the 70's and 80's myself, see how differently Vince Sr. and Vince Jr. ran things.
@@mharris5047
WWE Archives has all their old booking sheets going back decades (Vince's and Pat's booking sheets are still in the warehouse), so they might still have agent reports.
Its crazy how boutique WWF was then. Guys were doing so many different jobs. I would never think an on screen personality would be writing up reports at the office.
Every time I think Travis can't top a thumbnail he proves me wrong, well done. That being said, Hooters Girl Corny is going to be tough to top
Aren't we glad Travis didn't use the updated Hooters outfit?
No idea how he'll do it.
He will, in the future.
I did enjoy Jim Cornette's brief reference to Chief Jay Strongbow's agent reports. I'll never forget the time in a shoot interview when Kevin Nash quoted one of Strongbow's reports on a match of his, which stated the following: "You could have had that match in an iron lung." Nash acknowledged that while he didn't know exactly what that meant at the time, he knew "it wasn't an accolade of any kind."
I've been watching Reliving the Wars from Wrestling Bios and this adds another dimension to those videos, please do more of these
WBios Reliving The War is great!
That channel is absolutely essential viewing. So nostalgic it's brilliant, dudes got a great sense of humour as well.
@@bricktop. totally agree! He def does a great job! Love how he's not fake trying to be too iver top or shocking! Just a cool guy who enjoys what we do!

Wrestling Bios and Mr. Cornette keeping the Wrestling business alive
I saw this show in Birmingham, AL. Taker vs Farooq in the old blue cage. HTM was the moderator for the arm wrestling match. He cut a tremendous on the fly promo on some fella in the front row that wouldn't shut up. That's the only live event I've ever been to. Good times. We didn't have a shot at free wings, though.
✌🧡🐓
i think ive seen that house show, theres fan cam of it somewhere
@@nm7781 I know fake Razor was at mine, but the local stuff didn't happen. At least one of the other matches Corny mentioned I saw as well.
Those were the days. Taker and Ron Simmons tore the house down when I seen it.
✌🧡🐓
Undertaker VS Ron Simmons in a steel cage sounds like a pretty good main event!
LOL that thumbnail.
AH MY FUCKING EYES! I'll never be able to unsee Corny in Hooter's shorts. THANKS A LOT TRAVIS!
What's the big deal? That is nothing unusual for liberal men like Jim. Anyone can identify as whatever gender they what. They can identify as a cat and these mental patients expect you to play along.
@@JEGFL85 It’s a joke, square.
@@lolaloves6574 You never really know with American youth because most of them think in Cartoon and think it's real.
His tear into Peter Frampton towards the end was hilarious and unexpected. I've always heard he's a nice guy. Maybe someone has an opposing story.
I may be a bit sensitive to the subject anyway, being bald myself. I had long hair as a teenager. I miss those days.
"Don't look like Peter Frampton. Look like MEEE. With Keeps!"
"He couldn't get a date on a tombstone!" 🤣
My very first wrestling event was a live house show in Anaheim CA, back in 97, it was Shaw Michaels vs Stone Cold, Shawn lost and he actually mooned the crowd..
I attended a WWF "B" show in Muskegon, MI in about 1983. They sent none of the top talent and didn't even have an announce team in the building. IIRC they only charged $3 admission for adults and I think kids were free but most of the audience walked away disappointed and they never ran Muskegon again.
@@mharris5047 So who did you see wrestle at that B show?
This is why I LOVE Cornette...he should be labeled "Pro-Wrestling's" historian
He is known for his historic knowledge of pro wrestling
At this point and considering some of the documentaries I've seen, he pretty much is. He is certainly a recognized authority on it.
100
Jim popping for Ron’s hip surgery postponement 🤣
He loves that old school carny shit. Hell, so do I.
Looking at cagematch, most of the top tier roster were in Germany for the European Championship tournament. Ahmed wasn't injured (surprisingly), he was in Germany that night of this card that was mentioned.
this was so entertaining. Jim the story made me laugh so much. and that thumbnail 😂
Just shut up. You weren't laughing out loud and we all know about the thumbnail. It's a dead subject.
ricky rocket lol.
Is there a gallery of all terrific thumbnails? If not I might take some time to make one.
NFT auction for the thumbnails 💀
Ok, can we all agree one of top 3 thumbnails ever? If not what are your top3?
micheal myers cornette has to be on there.
It would be easier to remember top characters, like eye popping TK lol
Some of the ones by other artists like street fighter inspired had a really good one.
Marty Jeanetty 😂
@@gman2015z good ol' Bison Cornette
Being from Knoxville and a kid at the time stuff like this was happening, this is awesome! Love stories like this and love Knoxville stories.
Johnny Knoxville 😂😆
Tennessee is the cesspool of America
@@x2bannedyoutubeaccount408 I believe that's Florida actually lol
Great story. Lanza seemed like a great guy.
Ricky Rockett has a Cagematch page -- his final match was reportedly in 2003.
Blackjack Lanza getting worked by Ron Wright is the funniest thing.
This is awesome to hear! We need as many of these as you want to share! So cool!
I love it when Jim refers to Blackjack Lanza he's always been one of my favorites living here in Chicago since I can remember him the Bruiser and Crusher and Mulligan and Heenan payroll first class.👍
Ahmed vs. Crush as a main event, yikes. That German tour was the European Championship tournament, Davey beating Owen in the final during perhaps the worst shot Raw ever.
its like they took a handheld camera to the show and flimed it.
I have to hope that Peter Frampton has somehow gotten word of the promo Jim just cut on him.
Send it to him on Twitter.
Sooo basically a SMW show?
Apparently Jim has heat with Peter Frampton. 🤣
"he couldn't get a date on a tombstone" lmao 🤣🤣🤣
Ricky Rocket for the WWF championship.
I love the mini SMW reunion at the Knoxville show.
After his rant about Peter Frampton, I was laughing so hard, I was rolling on the floor! 😂💪
Did Jim cut a sneaky promo on Peter Frampton real quick? Travis Heckle missed a golden opportunity to have us saying "Who TF is that", if he would have put him in the artwork.
The lead singer of A Flock of Seagulls could have used Keeps.
There’s more on Frampton in the corny video about Kenny Olivier having a personal assistant. One of my favourites.
Wasn't Braccus (Brachus?) a German? Would have thought they'd use him in Germany.
I found this video after hearing cornette reviewing the aew surgery angle. Got a chuckle thinking about that .
17:14 to the end WTF 🤣🤣🤣
This thumbnail is cursed 😂
(Or a 90s Vince Russo booking pitch.)
Usually I click on a new video when we get to the advertising. But the Peter Frampton lore was worth staying around for. Lol
They ran a show in Germany and had Brakkus wrestle the show in Knoxville.. the irony.
Peacock has a lot of RAW episodes from 1997 on there. It's a great place for wrestling history.
Hooters was such a great place to watch wrestling from. Getting some wings with the boys while beautiful girls bring you drinks is always a blast.
18:05...
Frampton Makes Cornette Come Alive! 😜
"The Jabroni Beating, Pie Eating, Trailblazing, Eyebrow Raising, all around smack it down, people's champ, The Rock"
2nd only to the limo riding, jet flying, kiss stealing, wheeling and dealing son of a gun, the Nature Boy...WHOOOO!!!!
Jim couldn’t get laid in a lady’s prison with a hand full of pardons.
Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk 😋
Blackjack Windham and Blackjack Bradshaw, were a bad ass team. Should of been given more of a push.
That thumbnail might be the best ever 😂😂😂😂
Just checked, Aschaffenburg is currently the 124th (!!!) biggest city in Germany. Who came up with the idea of having a show there?! (Yes, kinda close enough for people from Frankfurt and Nuremberg , but still)
Fake Diesel is from Knoxville but we know how that went lol
I love the promo Jim cut on Peter Frampton!!
3:27...
Seems like I Remember "Crush" Being In Trouble for "Something" & Disappearing Altogether.
(Drugs Maybe...)
I can't get the image of Jim dressed like a Hooters girl out of my mind now🤣
Omg i was at the Aschaffenburg show!!!!!!
2:02 Classic Cornette Cough.
5:50...
RikkiRocket from POISON?!?
Sitting here thinking when did he become a wrestler ?🤣😂🤣
@@brendanwilliams106 he is a black belt in BJJ so it could happen
I guess we're in the Chicken Business.😂
I've been watching through 1997 Raw and Nitro again recently.
A mixed bag of a year but some great entertainment.
Not only is the thumbnail art brilliant it gets you to watch the videos because like this one why is Jim a Hooters girl. 😂😂😂😂
Hooter's corney is the cornette i didnt know i needed until right now
Peter Frampton certainly "Loves your way."
I was at this show in Knoxville and everyone there loved it taker climbing the cage in the middle posing and camera lights flashing first wwe show ever and it was magic
Hooters girl Corny doesn't exist, he can't hurt you.
Hooters girl Corny:
Corny: "Well I don't care about world Geography... Rock, Rock, Rock N roll High School..."
The Vince Russo TNA Script is still Hilarious to Me ….. 💀
SMW: One Night Stand
No shows and substitutions were common at WWF house shows.
These are great! Keep em coming please!
How many times did Undertaker get the match of the night in these reports i wonder. And Taker was being made to work with bad workers too many times.
Hope your not referring to Farooq (Ron Simmons) was one of the best ever to do power style wrestling
I was at this show. Corny, you forgot to mention me sneaking backstage.
writing this before watching
HOW THE HELL IS CORNY WEARING A HOOTERS UNIFROM FITTING TO A STORY ABOUT 97' AGENTS XDDDD
okay, i'm ready to watch now
I would love to see Jim in the Hooters outfit in person
Request it on his Only Fans.
Ol flabby pale white legs an shit.. lmmfao
He does Cameo. You'll have to pay extra for that. A lot extra...
Rikki Rocket?🤔Huh, musta had the night off from Poison?🤷♂️😆
I was there at that show in Knoxville!
Shoutouts from Aschaffenburg, Germany :D
Cornette shooting on Peter Frampton is the promo we never knew we were missing in our lives...
So it sounds like the final card left off Dogg, Savio, and the Godwinns. Why not have them wrestle a Fatal 4-Way? I was originally thinking they could've booked Dogg and Vega vs. The Godwinns, but I didn't think that made any sense having the Dogg and Vega in a tag against the Godwinns, but throwing them into a 4-Way would've been much more fun, and made more sense considering the characters involved. And book Dogg to win because...isn't he from Tennessee? __ Oh. Georgia. Well, book Dogg to win anyway, because Tennessee is close enough that he's a home-town boy, plus Dogg was awesome.
Other than that, not a bad overhaul for a wrestling card, especially considering that nobody would pop for Pritchard (especially if he's injured), and 'Taker vs. Faarooq in a steel cage sounds pretty excellent. Plus, having only six matches instead of eight allowed them to tack more time onto the semi-main and the main, which doesn't hurt (and a cage match always benefits from more time).
Blackjack Lanza seems like a pretty swell feller.
Just from this report alone, Jack Lanza comes off as the sweetest human being.
PHENOMENAL THUNBNAIL 😂😂😂
Well. 15 minutes is not bad.
The older nephews are laughing, My sister's and brother are looking lasers into me.. house clean up continues...😊
Howard Finkel is one of the unsung heroes of wrestling.
Awesome Shoot Today Jim!!😎🐐🐐
Aschaffenburg Germany i was there !
Blackjack Lanza is the man.
Ace upload much love from the UK
Is Cornette starting an angle with Peter Frampton?
I'm sure Corny has worn the Hooters outfit on role play night...
We found Ricky rocket by the back door😝😝😝
I will not look at Hooters the same way ever again lol !
How many House Shows were money-losing shitshows in those days? Could it be the PR damage from failed house shows would be an "assist" for why WCW gained some steam back then?
This is great content. I love this kind of stuff.
I didn’t know Corny worked at Femboy Hooters! Awesome!
My God that thumbnail 🤣🤣🤣...
Ya I usually just watch documentaries or thrillers, I’m in the same boat can’t really find anything good to watch
