He is unique. Theres No one like him alive. He is a treasure.
I would rather listen to stories like this all day long then to listen to the current state of wrestling, love the old school stories thanks Jim
Jim won't ever stick to history, although he should because he is the only one still giving history lessons regularly. Look at the comments and views on this, 1/10th the comments, 1/4 the views as some video on Dave or AEW.
@@edwells4769Thank You!
The old stories are what hooked me years back, even the mrs got into it since jim tells such a great story. Cant enjoy the modern reviews so much now a days, just too much yelling and cussing at times, but i still respect what jim and brian put together each week.
Thank you for presenting more territory segments lately, it is truly appreciated.
The best story telling on RUclips
This was fantastic, please keep these coming
More territory topics. Crazy that i can remember some of the storylines and odd/end wrestlers in Memphis at the time. Great show.
1983 better times
Yes classic stuff👏
It blows my mind that Jim drove hundreds of miles to make 50 bucks lol but then again I guess $50 went a lot further back then.
I had no idea rick rude was in mud south.
7:20 I didn't realize US Steel on The Venture Bros was based on a real wrestler 🤣
Nov 15, 1982, I was just over a week old
Tony Khan could use Jerry Lawler. Just assign him the task of training wrestlers. Guys under contract who need help and whoever else who might come to Lawler.
I live for this stuff. It's just so incredible 👌
Keep doing these please
I love hearing this stuff. Even though he speaks badly and taunts us folk that voted for orange man, I still love him and his stories!
Won’t be the last time I vote for orange man, either, so he can win a third time.
@@WyattHolliday he lost the popular vote the first time lost both the 2nd and will lose again the 3rd then go to jail lmao
MFJ is not enough to hold the audience at AEW, I don't think MJF would be or get any better at WWE. He's great for AEW, but I think that's the best he'll be/get plus there are way better guys at WWE at the moment so I don't know where he fits in.
PS: Jai White is not 220lbs he has no size to him, he looks like a feather weight, he must weigh around 175lbs-185lbs at best!... What a joke!
Jay can bulk up quite a bit, but it clearly effects his working. He said himself thats why he slimmed down during his reign as IWGP champion, guy looks great imo.
He look's great I agree. My point is that he don't weigh 220 because he looks tiny.@@KOHoxton
@@corylangille1869 i think hes just got a smaller frame, I'm 280-290, but I've got a small frame and properly look 250-260, whenever he does Bulk. He looks much more menacing, i'd imagine if he ever went to WWE where it matters more. He would put on more weight.
Jim breaks it down so perfectly & sometimes, seemingly, second by second also. Such a great historian & absolute true student to his craft.
There's a few who look back to the past like Jim Ross, Tony Shiavone & Dutch Mantell on the respective podcasts, but, nobody does it perfectly like Jim Cornette. Thank you Mr. Cornette for enlightening us & thank you Mr. Last for additional questions & uploading these podcasts. 🙏🏻
You know, the Midnight Express origin story would make a great movie. If someone could partner with Corny to write the screenplay
That would draw as much as Corny in Memphis
It’s always interesting listening to Jim talk about the old days of wrestling.
Another day going back 40 years with Jim Cornette blessed and cursed to see all from 1980-Now
always love these segments because modern wrestling fans have absolutely zero idea what he's talking about
Just curious as to why you care about modern wrestling fans? They don’t care about old school fans like us
@@analiysanchez9949 because this channel is riddled with them and its unavoidable.
Jim Cornette’s Love for Jerry the ‘King’ Lawler and the ‘Nature Boy’ Ric Flair is Admirable
If you think about it, Jerry was a big help to Corny in the Territory. Naitch helped Jim in the beginnings of WCW.
Jimbo got buck broke by jerry
@@kevinbbadd I always wondered why Lawler called him Jim "The Hole" Cornette.
always a treat to hear jim talk about classic wrestling
You know if you were in the business in the 80’s, Jim had to be fun AF to be around.
Reports are that MJF has got backstage Heat and multiple wrestlers are not happy with him💀💀
AEW really attempting a self destruct speedrun. MJF goes to WWE and AEW is absolutely dead
QT Marshall quitting is the canary in the coal mine.
@AlastairMacAoidh99 that screams of "See it wasn't TONY'S fault!" and throwing Danielson under the bus.
Thanks for the breaking news. Maybe Max is starting to unravel like Phil did.
MJF is doing every terrible thing Tony wants him to. What are the children crying about now?
This has nothing to do with this video, go somewhere else
My question is what ever happened to Jerry Calhoun, did he have a day job and referee on the side? Carl Fergie grew up behind my grandfather’s house, his parents rented a house/barn from my grandfather and the house was by the barn lot so he was out there with the animals.
ive heard that Calhoun worked at fedex full time.
Please stop reviewing AEW evvery weeknfor your health as well as ours! More of this please.
Man. A fucking tv-show about Jim Cornette's experiences and shit. Just saying Jim, this could be big. I don't think I've ever seen a movie or tv-show about the wrestling business. Like this is the best time to do it since everything's already exposed.
I went to all of your dark matches in Little Rock in 1983.
Scott Shannon was Scott McGhee with a name change. Don’t know why they changed his name.
I'm glad they're posting more classic wrestling talk. Weekly videos on AEW ratings get fucking boring and repetitive
I love picturing " I blew up watching dundee act out the finishes" .
Also, this is the first time in 30 years I've heard why Norvell wasn't included in the mid south midnight express. I wonder what kind of a grudge he holds.
I was born in November of '83 so this is like a wrestling time capsule for me
So were FKA Bella Twins and Kenny Omega (Twinkle Toes Cornette calls him) was born the month before. You're in good company.
@@patrickgreene2593 thanks for the info, patrickgreene bunchanumbers
I think Jim gifts us with these podcast to strengthen his cognitive resilience. Thank you so much for your continuing contributions to my entertainment and education.
Scott Shannon wrestled? Didn't know that.
I got a tree on my house!!!
I wanna see the boat movie!!
@@johnonan744 it's like a battery car!!!
Crazy to know he worked in Princeton Indiana.
Andy Kaufman used to kick those women’s asses 😂😂 RIP
My favorite series on RUclips
I liked this Mr McMahon series. I share a bday w/Vince 8-24. Brian and Corny would run wrestling be the kings of wrestling if they opened their own company
Love these throwbacks it’s what drew me to Jim in the beginning.
I can understand JC's loyalty to Watts even today...he took a young unproven manager that was barely surviving as the 2nd heel mgr in Memphis and gave him a shot to earn real money
Lawler looks like Bob Pinciotti in this
This is probably depicted from when Lawler showed up at tv on Saturday morning with a perm. When he showed up at MSC on Monday night he had attempted to have it straightened
I feel old I was 8 months old when you were doing this schedule
How long do Bill Watts run his Territory for
Lawler couldnt draw a dime apparently
Why does Jerry have a chest full of Sharpie?
Because he has a lot of body hair, not as much as Dutch Mantell but a lot.
I absolutely adore these stories from the 70s and 80s. Especially the territory days prior to Vince Jr going national and JCP basically funding Wrestlemania which would prove to be the beginning of the end for the NWA as a whole
I mean that's pretty impressive and that tells me a lot when territories are running a and b shows business was definitely good..
I think it's yes it would take some time but you can bring fans back around pick up new or younger fans and definitely have a good strong territory today.. as long as you can get it on TV or streaming apps today .. trust me I wish they could hit a rest button retrain the talent on how to get over my goodness make wrestling holds moves matter more they need to get out of the business of having to hit your finishing move 30 times once or twice is fine lol
I wasn't even one when all this happened, and despite growing up in Statesville, NC, I knew only of WWF. I always love hearing these stories about all the wrestling I knew nothing about until I was in my teens and it was only distant history.
I love these old stories. Keep them coming Cornie!.
Keep these coming thanks guys lol
Absolutely Kudos to Brian for putting this. Hopefully he could make an omnibus.
@@williammitchell4417I agree 100%
@@williammitchell4417 I'll take omnibuses of Jim covering classic wrestling as well as omnibuses of Brian's Mox and Hannibal impersonations for Christmas, thank you
@@chico1680 Good idea bro!!

Good timing as I'm here right away. Will take this opportunity to say I love cornette and he's a wrestling genius.
But his politics suck lol
Imo MSM ( Fox too - I'm equal opportunity hater ) are like old 70s wrestling. Built to play on emotions to 😵💫 as opposed to fill seats for the house show.
Cornette is still 😵💫 by it all
He's like one of the last wave guys who believed wrestling was fully legit and would get angry if someone said otherwise.
But with the NEWS instead of NWA wrestling.
MSM makes Trump to be a hated heel
And Biden etc to be the Babyface
And cornette is a huge Demo-Maniac!! Lol
If you think I'm stupid to make the comparison ... Maybe I am but remember that Ted Turner who built his whole empire on Wrestling ... He also began CNN and cable news.
Coincidence???
-EDIT-
Also ... It cracks me up that JC can spot (correctly imo) George Scott slipping into the Alzheimer's fog when he came to book WCW in late 80's and he has obviously come to that conclusion after a good amount of thought on the matter.
Joe Biden .... 🦗*Crickets* 🦗
I think just a blind spot but still I lol when he breaks down the argument for Scott and how in depth it is.
@AlastairMacAoidh99He just wants some fudge
Psycho
Promo is good.
You're already getting that Bob Backlund heel heat, brother.
They don't like your message because you're right.
@@getschwifty9531 That is a great analogy, love it. Bob Backlund heat is what it is
I've said that many times. He reminds me of my step father, who is a decent man and was a hard worker. But my step dads Trump Derangement Syndrome is because he watches the Mass Media propaganda on ABC, CBS, NBC. He now calls me a conspiracy theorist which I told him has turned into a compliment the last decade
Yea you've lost it if you think fans are gonna lissen to you blab about the MID 80'S SCHEDULE YOU DID!! Talk relevent ONLY 👇🏼😤
Waaa Waa boo hoo. Nobody forced you to click on the video. If you don’t like it then don’t listen it’s that simple. And you are obviously not a true wrestling fan if you only want to listen to modern wrestling. It’s Jim’s and Brian’s channel they can upload whatever content they want. And if you don’t like it then don’t watch it’s not rocket science.
The amount of views says you're wrong. And your grammar says you're re--
Whatever, Hangman. I know it’s you because the name checks out.
Milk it
