"My wifes cooking is so bad at our house we pray after we eat" Rodney Dangerfield.
Only 6 likes? No respect. No respect at all
A Rodney Dangerfield line warrants an automatic like from me.
We need Woodstock style Cornette announcements for pro wrestling events.
"Will the wrestler who weighs less than 200 pounds, please stop trying to no-sell the table spot? Stop doing that, thanks."
🤣
Alvin looks like he would have been in a Cheech and Chong movie.
"Hey Fuckface!"
*It was at this moment the waiter realized...*
Cant wait for Jim's response to AEW Fyter Fest. Off topic, What are Jim's thoughts on 24 7 title??? Lol
I want to know what he thinks about Eric Bischoff and Paul Heyman now running Raw and Smackdown! This is the biggest wrestling news in a while, or at least since the announcement of AEW. People are losing their shit!
I automatically think any wrestler who rips on Jim is stumping for a job with AEW.
@Brandi lord HAH!!
@Brandi lord okay, when did Jim reach out to AEW?
I agree with Jim 100 percent especially now wrestling needs to cut the comedy out and get serious that's why it's dying that's why Bret hart will always be my favorite he made it real back in the 90s
What ever happened to Orange Cassidy’s tag partner Julius? Heard he was main event at DQ
Joseph Wiggins Legend
🤣 that made my day.

Thanks doc!
Glad to hear Jim felt pretty much the same as I did about Double or Nothing. Cody/Dustin was the only memorable match on the card and it damn well better have been for being part of the advertisements. The rest of that show just bled together into white noise, I fuckin' zoned out. I tried to pay attention to Jericho/Omega but poor Chris pretty much had to carry it and that fucking goof Omega gave nothing back. If they think they're going to air more of that indie comedy bullshit on their first TV airing with TNT, I can guarantee ya I won't be watching for long. I already haven't watch any WWE in over a year, I have no real personal investment here. Wrestling has become a cartoon parody of itself in both companies and after 3 decades of watching faithfully, I'm pretty much done until some semblance of common sense and emotion is brought back into the presentation, whichever company is the one to do it.
The von Erichs with Lawlor vs Contra Unit was the best match I have seen in a long long time, I felt like I was 11 again watching the old von Erichs go at it with the Freebirds
it was great
"Except, there was still some incredible individual performances in those porn movies" 😂😂😂😂
I had tweeted Jim that Alex Jebailey is a video game tournament promoter, NOT A WRESTLER! So it's a video game character (Michael Nakazawa covers himself in oil like Hakan from Street Fighter IV) VS a video game tournament promoter (Alex Jebailey organized CEO, the biggest fighting game tournament in Florida and one of the biggest in the US).
It took AEW one event to start putting non-wrestlers in matches.
Very cringe, for sure.
Pro Wrestling pay has gone down in comparison to professional sports because the wrestlers don't have a union while all other major sports do. It's as simple as that. If they did they'd be making more than peanuts.
Professional sports bring in more money between television and attendance. So even if they had a union, how much money would they actually be splitting?
Professional wrestling is not a sport
They need more than unions. A regular season too with time off
I saw Pockets wrestle once before the AEW battle royal. Didn't mind that since it was a comedy match anyway vs. some other comedy wrestler. Then at the battle royal I saw him show up again and realized you know, if it were a shoot, somebody would just punch Pockets right in the mouth and win quickly.
Never need to see that guy wrestle again.
We don't want Brian Last, give us Brian FIRST>
Context. Thank you Jim. I try to explain this to the play wrestle fans and they just..dont..get..it
James Bellflower lesnar isnt a play wrestler he is real
This is a clear explanation of why Joey Ryan is bad for wrestling.
@@michaelallanrubin2376 uh I wasnt talking about Lesnar buddy. I was talking about Joey genitalia and the fucking hands in his pockets guy and the fucking blow up doll wrestlers. Yes brock is legit and he should always be presented as such.
@@michaelallanrubin2376 not sure why u thought I was talking about Lesnar. I actually like lesnar.
I feel you James. I just tried to do that yesterday to a friend (who is damn near 40) who said Orange Cassidy was amazing. They will never get it.
Shit, I didn't know you were the fourth Chipmunk, Jim! Good thing they prioritize vocal talent over looks or they'd probably have chosen Kevin Dunn instead.
Sweet baby jesus, Jimmy’s spot on about people treating pro wrestling like a high school drama class. It’s hurts so much because it’s so damn true.
LMAO he went in on that jabron Orange Cassidy!
"IM REAL MOTHERFUCKERS" , thats a new t shirt right there Jim.
Pockets.... is a joke. He should quit
If I get a puppy or kitten, I'll name him "Pockets".
So Cornette is gonna watch Fyter Fest with zero context? Jesus christ he's gonna die of an aneurysm.
All these things that piss Cornette off, now he sees why some of us vote republican, he’s cut about 8 republican promos on this one podcast alone
Jim and brian, keep up the great work!!!👍
Their the best duo besides Batman and Robin
I agree with you about sunny kiss. Just because were living in a new word where its okay to promote gay awareness. people like sunny kiss and non wrestlers think no one can say how they feel. sunny kiss is expression himself and jim expressed himself about how he feels. the lgbt community is so sensitive but yet they trying to take over the world with gay awareness. not everyone has to accept it because that not what they believe in. jim in no way offended sunny kisss. sunny kiss is just sensitive along with the entire lgbt community. What if we went around with a shirt that said straight community man and women belong together i wonder how that would turn out.
Exactly LGBT community can dish it out but cnat handle any heat.
Cornette has ripped off both Rodney Dangerfield & Milton Berle. I based part of my wrestling character off of Mr. Cornette, and I write my own one liners -- Dr. Rick Daniels.
Love me some Corny!! Breach it leader!!! Would like to hear Jim's thoughts on Hangman Page.
Would love to have seen the Young Bucks try there BS with any tag teams from the 80's and 90's.
Like LOD, Midnight Express, Steiner Brothers, Horseman or Doom. Love me some tag team wrestiling from this time.
The Steiner Brothers would have killed them.
Jim is going to be so pissed when he sees Alex Jebaily
A real videogame wrestler lmao
There's a wrestler in the states with Cerebral Palsy named Gregory Iron who is or was really good! I myself am 6 ft 4 inches and 240 pounds when I'm in shape should have gone for it. I have no clue who this Brit is, but he isn't in my radar. But yeah Jim, if you somehow see this check out Gregory Iron.
You forgot "Swammy's Pappy"
What's Up Jim!Your the Man!Keep up the great work!We love ya.
Best Thumbnail'$ Ever!!!!
Love that Alice Cooper reference at 2:00 there, Jim!
comedy if done right
see bobby hennan as a weasel
is an addition to the match not the match itself
see rock n sock connection.
key word Context.
this type of comedy is never done right. It's like overgrown kids jerk each other off.
@@kingrobthegreat7446 Jerry Lawler in his prime on commentary there you go good comedy and works.
@@colonelkenpachi5009 exactly
@@colonelkenpachi5009 Lawler never came across as a kid for the entire program the way the play wrestlers do. When he had to be serious and stay on point he did. And still does
@@kingrobthegreat7446 Exactly what I'm saying. Jerry can be your serious commentator when you needed him to be BUT he can also be your comedy commentator as well and it worked.
There's a wrestler in the states with Cerebral Palsy named Gregory Iron who is or was really good! I have Cerebral Palsy. I have no clue who this Brit is, but he isn't in my radar. But yeah Jim, if you somehow see this check out Gregory Iron. One of his trainers was Johnny Gargano, who I know you like. Everything else you and Brian said in this one I agree with 100%!
Time to be Experienced! Are you Experienced? Yes I am (insert trippy guitar music now)
I can’t wait until the skunk family takes up residence at the casa Cornette and he names it Russo! 😂
"ONCE AGAIN".....theres ya another shirt
If you're seriously upset that Jim comments on religious or political subjects, including things like NRATV shutting down because it was bleeding money worse than WCW ever did, or his opinion that religion requires a predilection for nonsense, then please, post your comment about it... the rest of us truly enjoy the laughs
Can you imagine dropping a couple tabs of “flat blue acid” that some nice fellow gave you, getting ready to have the time of your life...then all of the sudden you hear, booming over the enormous PA “THE FLAT, BLUE ACID IS POISON...”
that would probably be about the most intense hellride imaginable
He's sick
He's ob-scee-ne!
AEW needs Jim Cornett they gave Billy gun spying ass a job but not corrnett smdh
MLW has him instead which i grant you aew has the production but mlw has the roster
Terry funk, mick foley, that is hardcore...
Jimmy Havoc...bla.
Tony Khan just the first in a line of nfl owners who are going to invest in wrestling companies just to fuck Vincent for the xfl
He's taking money out of their pockets and they see an oppurtunity to screw him.. It's not about the wrestling alternative, about being a fan or giving oppurtunity ... He took the 5 or 6 biggest available independent wrestlers just before contract renewals and made a new impact wrestling. And he just did it on a bigger scale than roh did all in for the elite
30 minutes in...as a New England resident I'd kill to see you do that week's tour
The Who had been around five years, Hendrix two as solo artist, and Santana didn't even have an album out yet and they damn near stole the show. Woodstock was "new" music, you couldn't do that same type of show today.
I love Jim, I don't necessarily agree with him on everything. Hell I own several Young Bucks shirts...but dammit if he isn't one of the most entertaining guys to listen to talk about the business. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK GUYS!
What was the original song from the parody song homeboy played? I was really hoping Brian Last knew
Best part of the show was when Pete Townsend split Jim's little brothers wig with a Gibson SG for taking his mic. Solid gold.
I hate how Jim is always critical of the size of wrestlers. Boxing and mma have both proven that just because someone's small and skinny doesn't mean they couldn't destroy you in a fight. I'm sure there are plenty of featherweights who would humiliate some of the big guy's he seems to love.
The other issue is boxing and MMA have weight classes. Sure those smaller guys could destroy most people in a fight, but pro vs pro, they generally wouldn’t. So you can buy into a smaller guy if he comes across as more skilled, but only to some extent. A guy weighing 150 taking on Brock Lesner doesn’t come off as a credible threat.
@@brendangallagher6496 know it's a bad example but Mayweather ko'd Big Show. My point was just because someone's small dosent mean you should write them off straightaway. Take Zack Sabre Jr for example, widely considered the best technical wrestler today and capable of beating anyone. While at the same having the kind of body that looks like it'll snap in two from a regular bodyslam.
Ty Jim n brain love your show I listen at work everyday u guys are so funny n I love all the things you guys bring up n break down such a great look back in time when men in wrestling where men lol love u guys tc.
I found that the playkicking hands in his pockets guy can actually wrestle. The skate board fuck as you would say.
Can someone please tell me what the fuck Dana Loesche or the NRA have to do with escapism?
Hey Cornette what's worst a mudshow promotion or a bingo hall promotion
If Cornette wants to see Moxely in something serious he should watch the G1 Climax next month.
The wrestling bubble absolutely love using distinctions without a difference in order to make their taste the right taste. The notion that there is a right and a wrong comedy might be the perfect example. All Corny is saying is "I like observational humor so Carlin, Seinfeld, etc is the right kind of comedy....but I hate over-the-top comedy so Kinison is the wrong type of comedy and I hate one-liner comedy so Rodney exposed the business"
Old man: goofy shit in wrestling is only ok when I'm the one who books it.
Great Shoot Today Jim!!😎🐐🐐
Alice Cooper once appeared on a Halloween episode of the 'Muppet Show".
Shame you didnt know about hayman and Bischoff returning to WWE
Hopefully next week
or CM Punk
How about cheech & chong's wrestling match..it was awesome!!
I agree with corny 100000000% !!! Aew will blow this chance if they keep pushing this stupid shit.
I wonder what Corny thinks of his buddy Lawler being a Trump lover.
Probably respects his political choice despite what people may think of the president
@Brandi lord what does that have to do with Lawler loving the president?
Jim should've been given Raw or smackdown and Dutch Mantell should have been given the other .
Mamasboys rule the world...j@!
800 bucks for a box set...no way
Lol alvin looks so high. Corney toking God's medicine. This is another good one this thumb. 👍...
There are only 2 heat magnets in modern wrestling,: The Contra Unit and the WWE programming
Oh no. Now my life is NOT complete until I have that Woodstock uber-box set ...
Jimmy Havoc needs to work on his strength. His moves in that Battle Royal weren't very good.
Idk how he even got to where he is. Im guessing bc he's dumb enough to staple his nuts but it shoukd of ended there bc as a fan watching wrestling and knows what is good and how it works he wouldn't be able to do much in a fight against half of the rosters. Maybe hes bigger than he looks but im 5'11" 210lbs and id squash Havoc on a shoot!
lol Brian you and i said "twenny grand" at exactly the same instant
"It's your own trip, so be my guest." 😂
"Bad acid"? What's "good acid" then?...🤔
59:54 is this the birth of the nickname?
Jim, it's C U Next Tuesday :-D
FRESHLY SQUEEZED!!
FRESHLY SQUEEZED!!
No baby oil in Wrestling.
Were is the jim corny zoo?
Hahahaha Seymour the chipmunk
The eyes should be bloodshot ;)
Man... I'm sad Cornette doesn't dig Orange Cassidy. While I agree the gimmick is ridiculous, I love it. It's unique and could be a really good job character in my opinion. Its not gonna put all the asses in seats, but it'll put some. And I'm of the belief that wrestling is one of the last variety shows left. Drama, atheliticism, action and comedy can all be found and appreciated.
For the record, the Michael Nakazawa hardcore match is being done as a punishment to the greasy lotion bastard. It was a running gag on Being The Elite where one of the Bucks couldn't get his name out of his head after being disgusted by Kenny Omega signing this nobody.
Jebailey is the organizer of Fyter Fest from the gaming side of things. He's got some wrestling training, but otherwise is completely green.
I honestly think this is going to be a train wreck of a match, but the rest of the card looks promising.
Corny!!!!!
only 800 dollars damn
Jim is a real life heel
This is great.
AEW's having a pre-show for their free show?
Its not free outside NA. So it makes sense in that way i guess.
First 30 minutes:BOOOOORRRRRIIIINNNNGGG!!!!!
AlexJebailey is a former professional videogame player who promotes fighting game competitions. The event is called Fyterfest as it's coming from the same venue as a videogame tournament arranged by Jebailey. It's probably a hardcore match to "protect" the non-wrestler with a load of gimmicks.
Corney , you rock brotha!
Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds! Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds! Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds! AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!
I'm on THIS Cerebral Palsy guy!!- Jim Cornette (2019) I find this funny as a guy with CP.
Same
45 minutes in keeping it real
Its only free in America
F nutela!
LoL us real second amendment rights advocates are also happy the NRA is fucking gone too.
Alex Jebailey is a mainstay in the Fighting Game Community, and is the CEO of CEO, (Community Effort Orlando) one of the really big Fighting Game tournaments. He became friends with Kenny Omega and Austin Creed through the FGC. That was his in. He'll also be the Host of Fyterfest.
The Buy-In is a Poker term meaning amount needed to enter. AEW loves to use Poker terms for their shows. All-In and All-Out (putting all your chips in, and leaving/folding respectively), along with the Poker Chips as decoration are more examples of this.
The riot started during the battle Royal at the end and loved when one of the Harris twins threw an oil barrel being used as a trash can across the gym at one of guys playing at being security.too bad there's no video
Theres a theory that the brown acid was actually just highly pure LSD, which most hippies werent used to.
Had a friend who had some of them left from the 70s. They were still good. Didnt feel any different from any 99% pure lab tested LSD from today. Maybe a bit less pure but was still a fine trip.
