never dude, they live thousands of miles away, both check bookings to clarify that the other is not there, and now that corny is easing himself back into a relationship with wwe, he'll probably move on from bashing russo
Currently lying in bed as the relaxing pitter-patter of rain beats against the window, whilst listening to the soothing angry tones of Mr. James E. Cornette :)
Man, the hatred of Bret Hart towards Shawn Michaels in '97 is but a small, tiny, and entirely insignificant atmospheric disturbance compared to the hatred of Jim Cornette towards Vince Russo at a quarter past lunch hour on any given Tuesday...
His hatred for Russo is so huge that speaking of Bret and Shawn, it essentially hijacked the entire second half and even the end credits to the Montreal Screwjob episode of Dark Side Of The Ring. I shit you not!
True bout terry. The nemesis before the nemesis appeared. Landell was a more worthy adversary tho as Corny admitted to wanting Landell dead and actually made an attempt on Terry's life. Russo wouldn't dare be seen be Corny's eyeballs. Got that restraining order lol.
There are multiple people responsible for it. McMahon was so enamored w/the idea of that entrance looking as "cool" as possible, that he went rigger shopping & finally found some moron who padded his resume (IOW, lied like Hell about his work experience) & was willing to put some jakeleg quick-release shackle not cleared for stunts on Owen. Owen not wanting to do it, but was so afraid they'd punish him that he was passive aggressively trying to scotch it by sabotaging a number of dry runs which could've demonstrated how unreliable the quick-release snap-shackle was & maybe saving his life. But NONE of this would've mattered had Russo not convinced McMahon that the damned stunt was a good idea. No, Russo didn't "kill" Owen. But he IS responsible for getting the ball rolling on the path to that sad, foolish "accident". In my opinion, he enabled it & made it happen. That's criminal indifference, at the very least. I don't like blaming Owen for his part, but no damn contract is worth one's life & he either should've said flat-out "No way I'm doing this Goddamn stunt. It's too dangerous. And I'm sure as Hell not gonna do a tandem drop w/Mascarita Sagrada or anyone ELSE for that matter!" or showed up for the dry runs to show how iffy the rig was. The lion's share of the blame, though, DOES belong to McMahon. He made the final bone-headed decision to go w/it. He didn't want Owen fiddling w/the much safer double-lock carabiner harness & "ruining the moment". And, finally, he went shopping around for someone, ANYONE who'd set up the quick-release & didn't check on the guy's bona-fides which would've easily disproved the rigger's skills & experience. Russo pushed the stunt to McMahon & McMahon allowed a half-wit who didn't challenge him do a stunt w/an unrated core piece of equipment.
@@lukemcinerny8220 Good question. I always go back to the great book "Sex, Lies, & Headlocks", a heavily researched history of pro wrestling up to the early 2000s, because there's a whole chapter on the Hart incident. It does a much better job than I can in highlighting the incident's full story. But long story short, the guy hired by McMahon did work for the same rigger that WCW used to fly Sting. But he padded his credentials significantly. The guy claimed to be the chief assistant to the head rigger, but he actually just a minor crew member. Furthermore, McMahon wanted a single-wire rappel drop instead of the much-safer & more reliable double wire "flight drop". The same way they'd done Sting's entrances & Shawn Michael's "glide" at WrestleMania 13. The other aspect of the Hart debacle is the harness setup. The industry standard & safest way to "drop" someone is something called the double-lock carabiner system. Simply put, 2 locks secure the harness to the guide wire. If 1 fails, the other maintains the lock to the harness rig. WWE at the time allowed that, but the main problem from a production view is that the rig took too long to release once the performer finished the drop. The purpose of the double lock is safety, but both carabiners have to be released. This takes "too long" & looks clumsy. McMahon also wanted a "pratfall" gag - Owen would've been suspended a few fest above the ring & release the lock to "fall" on his face. McMahon wanted it to "look cool" & cut down on release time. No responsible stunt-rigger will use a single "quick release" rig simply because it isn't as safe as a double-lock carabiner. It's also tricky to set up - a "snap-shackle" set-up can work "in theory", but is notoriously finicky - rigging a single lock for it can make the whole set-up very easy to release accidentally. The strain of a person's weight makes the release balky & too easy to spring. Which is precisely WHY the industry standard's the double-lock. If 1 fails, there's another support carabiner. Furthermore, the rigger used a release hook not cleared for human stunt use. It was a sail snap-shackle. It's lightly sprung to allow a sail to drop quickly. It's too tight to use as a human stunt bit precisely for that reason. The company WWE used at the time flatly refused to be use that release, so McMahon went "rigger shopping" for someone who would. Sadly, we all know what happened as a result of this comedy of errors. The snap release indeed was too easy to spring & caused Owen's death. A sad commentary on how a person can find anyone to carry out a riskier rig & resume padding leading to catastrophe.
@@jimreily7538 I merely have a curious mind in combination w/a near-obssessive habit of analysing things...🙃. Honestly, it's not much more than being an avid reader & some old-school focus. I'm a wannabe academic, but my favorite subjects are somewhat outside of what for-real researchers dig into. It doesn't hurt to have decent source material. Most of the details concerning Owen Hart's untimely death are in "Sex, Lies & Headlocks". If you haven't read it, you really owe it to yourself as a wrestling fan to give it a look.
What do you expect? Like Jack Nicholson said in the movie As Good As It Gets about writing women " I think of a man and take away reason and accountability"
It's like if your computer stops working so you grab you phone and smash it against the desk. Well done dumbass now you have two things that don't work
And I liked TNA but man Dixie Carter should of hired someone to hire and fired people who knows about pro wrestling and business cause clearly she didn't know what she was doing..
If I was Vince McMahon and I knew I had a year left in me before I died, I would induct Vince Russo and Jim Cornette to the hall of fame and see what happens lol
not even close, say what you might concerning russo's writing, i'm not here to debate that "mcmahon filtered it" or "this or that was his idea" crap, but cornette adjusts his hate when it is convenient, he didn't say s**** about russo when they worked together in tna all those years, only after dixie cleaned house in 2009 with releasing jim, dutch, jeff, savio vega, etc. that's when jim went to his *i hate russo* narrative again.
MITCHELL ALVAREZ he did his first shoot about Russo in 2000. He decided not to talk about him while they worked together, but according to him and others (like Dutch) who were around him during this time, he was miserable and complained about Vince.
MITCHELL ALVAREZ he didn't rag on him when they worked together because despite personal feelings both men are this thing called being a professional, adults usually are professionals in order to keep a job. Get with it.
Al_Pacino's_Stuntdouble It’s self explanatory, he’s a stranger in paradise. He never had anything to do with the wrestling business, hence a stranger in the locker room. He’s in paradise because he always wanted to be a star and he was surrounded by them
I remember listening to this over and over again during my shifts when i was working as a stock boy at Dollar Tree Jim's epic rants on Russo got me through a lot of rough times, lol
Cornette's feelings towards Russo are pretty much the equivalent of my feelings about ever working in retail again in my life. Near seven years of my life lost inside a giant blue hell hole. I'm near homeless and starving right now but I will not apply to any of those places ever again.
Got to listen to this once a month just to put my life in context, I want jim to live to 100 so I can hear his joy when he finally conpletes his life objective!
Actually you needa deleete your comment for misleading people. It's wrong and you're wrong right now. Gotta think before you type man.. nothing worse than being wrong
Dixie's husband should suggest that male escorts would be cheaper than flushing $40M down a failed wrestling promotion in order to play with the staff.
Horrible quality audio? Yes. But artistic words of a passionate madman that just gave a man's backside the most vocal tongue-lashing known to man? Also yes.
I pay a cable bill but I don't turn on the box cause I stopped watching regular TV around the start of covid and its cheaper to have the TV part I get 200mgb plus speeds as part of the package but Id turn that box on and would watch the nightly news every night!! I would crash my car to get home in time if I hadn't tivod that shit!. Oh if Vince Mcmahon had any sense theyd give him a job as commissioner as a recreation of a totally separate WCW with WWE cash but brand new wrestlers and a non PG show that was totally separate so we could get the production values of WWE and the same calibre wrestler without any hang ups about being clean and polite!! Cornette knows talent and Cornette knows how to book and he could fill that new WCW with amazing guys and amazing storylines!! Give him a year! WWE can afford it and if it doesn't work then OK! But give us something else that's not WWE and AEW isn't gonna beat WWE and it feels like the old WCW with the old out of shape talent like Jericho who looks fat and out of breathe. Give us what we always wanted but DONT do what you did to ECW!!
The thing I hate about Russo, is that whenever you bring up something good that he was possibly a part of or had a hand in, he's the first one to step up and say how great it was and how it was his idea to do such and such. But whenever you bring up the absolutely terrible things he's done he just says "who cares bro, it's wrestling, it's only wrestling" And one thing I love about Jim is that he is the first one to stand up when something doesn't work, and say that it was stupid and it was a bad idea whether it was his idea or not, he doesn't just only brag about the great things he's done. He recognizes the failures. Russo doesn't
This Video is AWESOME! I literally got pulled into Jim Cornette's Hatred in his heart toward Vince Russo. I thought I HATED. I thought I had discontent. I Hate the Coronavirus. I hate stay at home. I hate the Chinese Government. I hate my local Government Officials. But my Hate is NOTHING! Compared to the Hatred Jim Cornette has toward Vince Russo! Oh! My! God!
The fact they can put together an hour of cornette going off on russo is amazing, and it doesnt even cover everything he had said about him. I love it.
If you do you gotta include the clip from his shoot interview with Paulbearer for ring of honor they grill him for like a good 5 mins back and forth its epic XD
Listening to Cornette speak about his hatred for russo over the years is like listening to a southern Baptist preacher rant about live for the lord.. it brings me so much happiness
I held my shyt together until 39:41 but when the Star Wars music kicked in, during such an amazing grilling by Jim, I laughed and cried. Will someone give this man 50 million, and just let him run a wrestling organisation free from interference. It would either be amazing or ..still worth the price of admission to see what he tries to come up with. The man eats, breathes and shyts Wras-lin
Oh my god, thank you so fucking much for giving us JCBtW: II after all this while. Your production efforts are duly noted and appreciated. I didn't want to wait so long for this sequel, but it was certainly worth the wait. Bless you, DubPeePee.
Jim has a full blown arch nemesis. I'm kinda jealous. I too would like to hate someone so passionately that I change up my entire lifestyle in an active attempt to outlive them just so I can desecrate their eternal resting place.
Honestly, Jim reminds me of myself. Passionate and not afraid to confront bullshit. The thing is, when you look back, he always right about what he said. I saw some idiot talking about Russo had record high ratings but he can't see Jim was talking about longevity. When you look at how low wrestling is now, it's directly connected to Russo and his booking, just like Jim said would happen
All I could see for the title was "Jim Cornette buries the" I thought my mind was going to be blown and it might say "buries the hatchet with Vince Russo". What was I thinking?
Will never forget Bart Gunn getting knocked out. I knew at the time even being 12 years old it wasn't exactly a shoot but I knew it wasn't staged. Had no idea why it was a thing at the time but thank you Jimmy for clarifying. Definitely knew who butterbean was. Unfortunately Bart Gunn never got his push like Billy did. Smoking guns were a great tag team but that was straight bullshit 😒
11:30 is the greatest description you will ever hear and probably the most accurate pertaining to watching a Vince Russo show. If we lose Jim it will be a hole that can never be filled in professional wrestling.
That's exactly what she said. Since she wouldn't get the hint that that's what the people wanted I can only assume that Russo was blackmailing her to keep his job.
I swear Russo loved wrestling as a kid and really bought it, and it broke his heart and mind when, at 18 years old, he found out the truth, and it screwed him up permanently!!!
I mean, of course McMahon would listen to Russo, they're both Vince! VKM would strike me as a person that would bet their life on someone that shares his first name.
...right up until he mocked the family of Jimmy Snuka's victim after WWE or whoever screwed them out of their courtmoney and had the gall to call it "karma". I like the man, I want to keep liking him. But goddamn that one made me want to cut his nuts off.

That’s crazy, I used to listen to Cornette’s shoots while stocking shelves and unloading trucks at Dollar Tree as well
Now you’re manager of that dollar tree
Cornette's feelings towards Russo are pretty much the equivalent of my feelings about ever working in retail again in my life. Near seven years of my life lost inside a giant blue hell hole. I'm near homeless and starving right now but I will not apply to any of those places ever again.
@@mc12358 u might as well since ur near homeless and starving 😂😂😂
@@Capt_Ron29 I'd rather follow a zombie clown into a sewer drain 🤣🤡
The last rant on Russo is BRUTAL!!!!!
Got to listen to this once a month just to put my life in context, I want jim to live to 100 so I can hear his joy when he finally conpletes his life objective!
killing Vince Russo?
Restoring credibility to the wrestling business?
@@chandlerbryant6680 Outliving Russo then pissing on his grave lol
@@southeastindependentsocial330 One does not rule out the other. And we all know Corny would fucking do it if he had an airtight alibi.
I hope he records it.
" Osama Bin Cornette " Lmfao he comes up with the most hilarious things xD
"Jimmy was never one to hold back his feelins" That sums up this whole thing.
"Jimmy was never one to hold back his feelings" 😆😆😆
The compilation of Jim telling Vince McMahon stories for 5 hours is also a must. It’s unbelievable and brilliantly told by Jim
Na can't be possibly better than this. The cmmahon stories arent funny. HE eats steak big fk!!! So you're WRONG
Actually you needa deleete your comment for misleading people. It's wrong and you're wrong right now. Gotta think before you type man.. nothing worse than being wrong
Is that the 7 and a half hour one?
@@ASCUMBAGWh0re I said “also a must watch”, I didn’t say it’s better than this
@@ryanwiseman9141 still wrong tho because i didn't enjoy no Vince steak stories. Done TOLD you they was boring man.
Jim is one of the few wrestling legends I feel like would have a beer with a fan because he’s a fan himself
Nope, Sprite Zero.
He hates beer it'd be a sprite
LOL, that music playing when he asks Dixie Carter about Vince Russo. HA!
Dixie's husband should suggest that male escorts would be cheaper than flushing $40M down a failed wrestling promotion in order to play with the staff.
That last clip is verbal art.
Horrible quality audio? Yes. But artistic words of a passionate madman that just gave a man's backside the most vocal tongue-lashing known to man? Also yes.
I put this on in the background while I was napping and I kept waking myself up from laughing at that part. Jim is one of a kind.
@@TheJayLordx on one one point out oooooooooo love on poop 💩 ooooooooooooooooooooooooI'llijjjjjjkykkkjjjjjkkkkkkyo love opppppo
I wish Jim was a prime time News Anchorman. His news would be worth watching
It would be like that movie Network, it'd be raaaad
I always get the feeling he's telling a bullshit story. Or at least stretching the truth a little bit.
@@captainbuzzkill4658 nah. Watch any documentaries about Russo and you'll see that Cornette is right.
I pay a cable bill but I don't turn on the box cause I stopped watching regular TV around the start of covid and its cheaper to have the TV part I get 200mgb plus speeds as part of the package but Id turn that box on and would watch the nightly news every night!! I would crash my car to get home in time if I hadn't tivod that shit!. Oh if Vince Mcmahon had any sense theyd give him a job as commissioner as a recreation of a totally separate WCW with WWE cash but brand new wrestlers and a non PG show that was totally separate so we could get the production values of WWE and the same calibre wrestler without any hang ups about being clean and polite!! Cornette knows talent and Cornette knows how to book and he could fill that new WCW with amazing guys and amazing storylines!! Give him a year! WWE can afford it and if it doesn't work then OK! But give us something else that's not WWE and AEW isn't gonna beat WWE and it feels like the old WCW with the old out of shape talent like Jericho who looks fat and out of breathe. Give us what we always wanted but DONT do what you did to ECW!!
@@cragerzz I would absolutely watch WCW WITH Jim Cornette as commissioner, but not if WWE owned it, they fuck up everything anymore.
I don't think Jim likes this Vince guy
Like is thrown out the window wen it comes to ruso lmao 🤣
The thing I hate about Russo, is that whenever you bring up something good that he was possibly a part of or had a hand in, he's the first one to step up and say how great it was and how it was his idea to do such and such.
But whenever you bring up the absolutely terrible things he's done he just says "who cares bro, it's wrestling, it's only wrestling"
And one thing I love about Jim is that he is the first one to stand up when something doesn't work, and say that it was stupid and it was a bad idea whether it was his idea or not, he doesn't just only brag about the great things he's done. He recognizes the failures.
Russo doesn't
I'm just waiting for a chance to use "Thank you, fuck you, bye!" on somebody XD
ジョシュア0309 glad I'm not the only one hahahaha
Any further in your quest? It’s been 4 years.
Thankfully I’ve gotten the chance and ran with it😂
the most underrated and underviewed video in entire youtube
This truly is God's work
I have a Pavlovian tendency to watch it every time I see the thumbnail.
Joseph Telegen I have a 45 minute drive to work and I’ve watched it like 3 times this week :)
@@andrewfiori941 Are we the coolest or saddest people on earth (or both)?
Joseph Telegen we are distinguished people that appreciate good content....art!!!
Cornettes ability to annihilate anyone but especially russo is beyond legendary. I could listen to this on repeat all day long LOL
When you’re wrong and stuck in 1982 you’re not really “annihilating” anyone… You’re just yelling at clouds
"I will spend money to cost you money!" That line sums up how much Jim hates Russo! 😂
Thats when the hate truly becomes real.
"I was developing a twitch" lol great video thank you
Just if nobody heard and Jim missed it out. If Vince Russo was wandering through a men's locker room, he'd be whistling stranger in paradise
Jim Cornette maybe not the hero that we want but the hero that we need
Wrestlemania 35 Cornette vs Russo
Félix Monger somehow michael cole ends up going over
Think you had a stroke.
This Video is AWESOME!
I literally got pulled into Jim Cornette's Hatred in his heart toward Vince Russo. I thought I HATED. I thought I had discontent. I Hate the Coronavirus. I hate stay at home. I hate the Chinese Government. I hate my local Government Officials. But my Hate is NOTHING! Compared to the Hatred Jim Cornette has toward Vince Russo! Oh! My! God!
The fact they can put together an hour of cornette going off on russo is amazing, and it doesnt even cover everything he had said about him. I love it.
jim is my spirit animal
Mine too man!
This is the greatest thing i've ever seen in my life.
I remember Cornette on commentary saying the same exact thing when Sting got booted out of the Horsemen
Same
jim cornette buries the universe: episode 3 kevin dunn PLEASE DO THIS!!!!!!!!!
Tim Porras no way. Jim said he apologized to Kevin Dunn and Kevin Dunn started crying (??). Let that guy live, he can't take squat.
If you do you gotta include the clip from his shoot interview with Paulbearer for ring of honor they grill him for like a good 5 mins back and forth its epic XD
it was featured in episode one of cornette buries the universe.
@@aschraub9897 I saw that. It was amazing hearing Paul Bearer belt out "GLORY Kevin Dunn I hate youuuuu!".
There's no topping this. It's like making Star Wars Episode VII. The story is finished, and the franchise becomes a shameless cash grab.
Listening to Cornette speak about his hatred for russo over the years is like listening to a southern Baptist preacher rant about live for the lord.. it brings me so much happiness
I held my shyt together until 39:41 but when the Star Wars music kicked in, during such an amazing grilling by Jim, I laughed and cried.
Will someone give this man 50 million, and just let him run a wrestling organisation free from interference.
It would either be amazing or ..still worth the price of admission to see what he tries to come up with.
The man eats, breathes and shyts Wras-lin
If I ever hit the mega million, you got it
No one would watch sweaty guys do arm bars and wrist locks with no story…. That’s why Russo got the jobs over corny
and Wendy’s
@@Zer0PassionThere is no way it would be any worse than Tony Kahn...
@@Zer0Passion then why do we watch UFC or Boxing?
Star wars intro, simply priceless! Excellent job putting this video together!
Thank You.
Fuck You.
Bye.
LMAO! Priceless!
humungoloco seriously? It was shit
i would pay to have a video of russo's kids spraying cornette with a watergun while hes sleeping in a hammock lol
Oh my god, thank you so fucking much for giving us JCBtW: II after all this while. Your production efforts are duly noted and appreciated. I didn't want to wait so long for this sequel, but it was certainly worth the wait. Bless you, DubPeePee.
Jim has a full blown arch nemesis.
I'm kinda jealous.
I too would like to hate someone so passionately that I change up my entire lifestyle in an active attempt to outlive them just so I can desecrate their eternal resting place.
I seriously hope that he will outlive Russo so he can find peace after all
This is like ASMR to me...
"Both his arms free cuz he can do that Yo bro thing" lmao
22:56
Whistles "stranger in paradise"....
Usually I hate edits of interviews, but this is actually a case in which it enhances the experience.
Honestly, Jim reminds me of myself. Passionate and not afraid to confront bullshit. The thing is, when you look back, he always right about what he said. I saw some idiot talking about Russo had record high ratings but he can't see Jim was talking about longevity. When you look at how low wrestling is now, it's directly connected to Russo and his booking, just like Jim said would happen
Me too. It makes you unpopular cause people dont ever wanna hear the truth when it makes them look bad.
I've waited months for this thank you!
I love this man especially when it’s time to sleep 😴 me and my wife are dying laughing 😂
This is a great comment!!! I thought I was the only one!!!
I love how Sean in the first clip is basically playing psychologist with Corny
The last 7 or so minutes of this are just beyond the icing on the cake.
I’ve probably listened to this 10 times and it never gets old or loses its humor! 😂
Well I have to say Jim cornette is fairly consistent
I don't blame Cornette for hating Connecticut.
the piss on your grave thing has me dying 😂😂 I love Jim Cornette
i have never laughed so hard as when cornette called russo the equivalent of the kid who pulls his pants down and shows his "WeeWee"
Where does he do that?
I'm literally more excited at the thought of Jim cornette vs. Vince Russo then pretty much every match at WrestleMania this year
Boy have times changed
All I could see for the title was "Jim Cornette buries the"
I thought my mind was going to be blown and it might say "buries the hatchet with Vince Russo". What was I thinking?
Adam Smith
Well if it involved burying the hatched through Russos skull, you could be correct. xD
Jim Cornette Episodes 1 & 2 are without a doubt 2 of the greatest videos of all time! More please!!!!!!
Will never forget Bart Gunn getting knocked out. I knew at the time even being 12 years old it wasn't exactly a shoot but I knew it wasn't staged. Had no idea why it was a thing at the time but thank you Jimmy for clarifying. Definitely knew who butterbean was. Unfortunately Bart Gunn never got his push like Billy did. Smoking guns were a great tag team but that was straight bullshit 😒
But Bart Gunn being knocked out will never not be funny.
Some people just can’t get their head around how much Jim loves the wrestling business and how much it pisses him off when people fuck with it
I love Jim , he is great , truthful, and funny at the same time.
This was better than Rouge One
And most definitely The Farce Awakens.
Erik S I will not tolerate that kind of blasphemy 😂😂😂
Erik S This was better than The Last Jedi
This was better than Solo
Moulin Rouge sucked compared to this
I live vicariously through him...hahaha Jesus he's hilarious
That ending was harder than 2Pac’s hit em up.
I circle back to this every year or so, and laugh my ass off every time
11:30 is the greatest description you will ever hear and probably the most accurate pertaining to watching a Vince Russo show. If we lose Jim it will be a hole that can never be filled in professional wrestling.
Jim has to be the greatest shooter alive.
He makes Bret look like he’s reading off a script
@@MASTER3371 I think he could own the 🐐 Chris Jericho on the stick.
did Dixie say if there is a fire russo chant in her arena again, I will fire someone else? What???
That's exactly what she said. Since she wouldn't get the hint that that's what the people wanted I can only assume that Russo was blackmailing her to keep his job.
@@blazerocker1734 I sincerely think he had pics of her sleeping with wrestlers she employed.
@@downwithputinsaveukraine1313 Even if that is true, i don't think she would get too much hate for that
Dixie doesn't like hearing Cornette's Valid points!!!
monday drive-thru, thursday experience, & this every other day
30:07-30:18 Is without doubt one of the finest moments to happen in a shoot interview ever.
This is top 10 best videos on YT. Not just wrestling, YT in general.
Thank you! I was waiting for this for a long time.
Not gonna lie, I'm about to go into rehab because of my Cornette addiction.
“He looks like a goof...because he is a goof.”
EPISODE TWO!!!! THANK YOU!
That last rant at the end about shitstain is timeless. Thanks Corny. 😆
“It was like...watching an idiot savant, rattle off shit..”😂👍
Jim Cornette and his illegitimate son Bryan Zane vs Vince Russo and his illegitimate son Angry Joe
Anthony Oliver Parker no fucking shit idiot
Does Angry Joe make videos about wrestling now? I haven't watched him in years.
Vince Russo's kids are probably the mailman's or maybe the milkman's.
When I listen to Jim Cornette, my blood pressure lowers.. THANK YOU MR. CORNETTE
This video is a lot like a fireworks show. Delightful fun all throughout but an absolute grand finale in the final five minutes.
I swear Russo loved wrestling as a kid and really bought it, and it broke his heart and mind when, at 18 years old, he found out the truth, and it screwed him up permanently!!!
How has this feud NOT won a slammy?
Because WWE didn't make money off it lol.
I mean, of course McMahon would listen to Russo, they're both Vince! VKM would strike me as a person that would bet their life on someone that shares his first name.
the last ten minutes are gold.
First 50 where really good 2
I love how in Jims eyes the boys can do no wrong it really shows his respect for the in ring talent .
...right up until he mocked the family of Jimmy Snuka's victim after WWE or whoever screwed them out of their courtmoney and had the gall to call it "karma". I like the man, I want to keep liking him. But goddamn that one made me want to cut his nuts off.
I'll tell you what, Cornette is getting me through quarantine.
The end of this is literally the best thing I’ve ever heard…
If anyone wants a TRUE example of hatred, go to timestamp 59:39
