I used to be one of the Cornette haters but over time I realized how much knowledge and experience he has in the business and I can respect that. Also his lack of filter always seems to make me laugh in one way or another.
@dogmeat jesus I was a huge RnR Express fan and absolutely hated Cornette and the Midnight Express. Looking back now at the old videos the only reason I ever had for being a Rock n Roll fan was the great heel work of Cornette.
Thats funny...im exactly the opposite. I used to love Corny and his unfiltered ways. The more i listen to him though, the more i caught on to some of his hypocrisy. He will slam goofy gimmicks, exposing the industry, or backyard wrestling. Then he will praise a dude like Mick Foley. Mick 'Mr Socko' Foley. He has used goofy gimmicks like Socko. He has exposed the business, like entering the Rumble 3 times with all three of his gimmicks. It was done for a laugh and i have no problem with it but if it was anyone else other than Mick Foley, Corny would have an blown up. Then there's the Nestea Plunge, the dive off the Cell, hitting Terry Funk with a flaming chair, getting slammed on explosive tables...or his homemade videos with him diving off his roof as a teen. The dude was backyard wrestling before most people. But Cornette likes Mick, so it is all OK. And he is smart enough and talks fast enough to make it sound like he isnt being a hypocrit. But if you really listen to him for a loooong time, you realize its not what people do, it's all about if he likes the person, not so much what they do. He also reuses the same jokes over and over...and over. I hear that 'stranger in paradise' one again, i might break my phone. Alot of people are hypocrites though...i can ignore that. The way he likes to inject politics and religion into his rants though is extremely abrasive. The funny thing is, I happen to agree with his views. Im not a Trump fan and I'm definitely an atheist. But the way he goes about it, he believes everyone else that doesnt see things the same as him is an idiot. His smug superiority complex...it makes people that share his views look like assholes. And im not an asshole, people are entitled to their opinions and who am i to tell them they are wrong? Not to mention, no one listens to him for his political or religious expertise. He doesnt know fuck all about either, he used all his brain cells to study wrestling. And we listen for his vast knowledge on the subject. I think there is room in wrestling for a promotion that will run serious technical matches like Codys, comedy matches, luncha matches, hardcore matches and whatever else they want to do. It's not for everyone...but since Corny hates Omega, the Bucks, and Janela, he roasts majority of their stuff when it isnt all that bad. The thing has barely gotten off the ground and what they have done is impressive to me. But Corny will keep burying them because he doesnt like the VPs and probably wish Khan asked him to be one instead of Omega or the Bucks.
Wow, what a resume. That may be the most impressive wrestling background and experience I've ever heard. Jim should be a national treasure! Keep up the great work and helping build wrestlings future legacy. Nice one.
Minus leaching on to Lesnar which I absolutely hate, I have always wished Heyman and cornet would start a promotion together. The two greatest minds wrestling will ever see
All Mighty I follow his stuff more than the current product. I was a ruthless agression era guy, but fell off when Benoit died. Now it’s Corny and Aldis.
Jacques Malan WWE hired them and sent them down to OVW. They would have succeeded had they been hired by WWE and sent to Memphis, HWA, FCW, Deep South, NXT or anywhere else. Corny did his job in helping to cultivate their talent, but it isn’t as if he is the only one who could have done that job.
Jacques Malan 1. He didn’t teach them to work. That was Danny Davis’ side of the business. 2. I’m not saying that anyone off the street could have done what he did, but there are many others that can. 3. They were charismatic wrestlers who benefitted from being brought up at a time when so many talents were stepping away from the business/dying/dealing with “demons”. Impressive, but hardly miraculous.
Jacques Malan The guys you mentioned weren’t horrible, but no one could have made them top guys. They were quality middle of the card talent. They didn’t have the charisma that the 4 OVW guys did. But let’s actually take a minute and look at the rise of those four. Orton started fairly dull, but quickly became interesting as a heel. His promos were fairly top notch as a heel. Batista became a quality performer because he spent a couple years on the road with Flair and Hunter. The Batista that came out of OVW was meh. Lesnar is an athletic beast with a “I just might kill you if you annoy me” personality that shows. He is still a pretty retched promo. Cena became one of the most charismatic characters ever, but only after dropping everything his character was. Only Lesnar was an immediate star and that was going to happen period. The others were not ready despite spending years in OVW.
@@bodybysmod Sorry dude, but Cornette produce them and you can't take that away That means: what moves are good for you, how you should carry yourself, how to do interviews, how to work (working in the sense of putting over a con) and stuff that made the wrestlers he and Davis trained valuable in both WWE and any other company at the time. People always suck Heyman off but he sucked in OVW and the only thing he did there was protecting Punk from WWE; John Laurinatis, or whatever his name is , destroyed developmental for a good amount of years, NXT has not produced any big stars yet (a guy on the same level as Cena, Batista, Orton or Lesnar and they have a lot of talented guys).
Corny will always be relevant to pro wrestling! An absolute legend! He is more important than today's wrestlers! He is all over the old tapes that oldsters watch, and he is still going to this day! Stay active Jim! You ARE wrestling right now!
I began to train as a wrestler last year. There was a veteran, an old french guy who had trained with Andre the giant in the past Who said to me "flips and dives are not the most difficult shit to pull out, its actually grappling and striking that are more difficult". The Guy gave me a chop later on to show me how to do it. The guy is like 75, and still has iron palms lmao. It was at that moment that i understood why janella wouldnt train as a wrestler, he wouldnt had handled the training
My grandfather was a wrestler and he trained in four different grappling styles. He destroyed my aunt's ex husband in a fight once with no effort after finding out he was beating my aunt and he was in his middle 50's, fighting a guy in his 30's. Those old school wrestlers are badass.
@mharris1270 Those kind of stories are warming lol seems like that lady was cut above the rest, even if she was married with a douche. My family has a lot of stories like that: my mother traveled a lot in the mexican subway when she was working and a lot of perverts wanted to touch her... little did they knew my mother loved to hang around with Professor Needle and his favorite subject was "Ohh my balls are bleeding, stop crazy woman". I've seen her beat both women and men when they disrespect her; one time, my mother made my father's sister angry and she knew she could not touch my mom in a real fight so she brought a knife to the equation and still lost lol.
Well I like AEW but I do agree with his stance on Kahn and throwing money at random no name talents instead of signing big guys like CM Punk or the Briscoes. All they got for name recognition is Jericho (which outside of Omega, Cody and Spears, I don't really know anyone else) and if the hype train ends and they cannot pay off the contracts, then they will be fucked in the long run.
Well, they did do a lot of traveling back in those days, so maybe all three could be Corny's sons. The favorite one, the black sheep, and the one who actually looks like his father. 😆
This generation has no respect for history in all aspects of life. Cornette has done it all & seen it all. He's one of the most reputable experts to speak on all issues regarding wrestling. Mr Cornette, I remember the scaffold match too. Much respect.
As someone’s who’s part of “this generation” I completely agree. Young adults have absolutely no respect for what came before them. They treat everyone born before them like some stupid fuck. They think they’re smarter and better at everything. It sickens me tbh as someone who loves history. It’s why I tend to hang around older generations. People 35+ are the ones I get along best with.
@Neocon Ingsoctrination there's one more aspect that makes the analogy a bad one: Corny is mostly concerned with the aesthetic of wrestlers, meaning if they look legit in the ring, i.e. Marco Stunt is just too small to be credible. but that says nothing about how good of a pro wrestler that person is, looks are just one aspect. in his comparison that would mean that people who are good pilots would be frowned upon cause they don't look like all the other pilots not because they lack the skill
Been a Corny fan most of my life. Grew up on Memphis Wrestling at the Midsouth Coliseum and watching on channel 5 every Saturday morning. LOVE the territory days because you never knew who was going to pop in
Hey, I think studio wrestling is a cool updated throwback. Plus, Jim Cornette knows the business and can talk. I just wish Lance Russell was still around to say, "Hey, c'mon now!!!!" or "Wait just a a minute"
Jim, never let them get to you. Every time I’ve ever met you at an Indie show you were always gracious to everybody you talked to. Always said hello to me, whether or not you remembered me. I don’t know. Regardless, you are one of the most talented people in the industry and you have one of the best minds that was ever in the business. Anybody, especially those who are in the industry, who do not listen to you are idiots. The experience you have and the places you’ve been, makes anybody else in the industry look green. The people who try to put you down are people who don’t want to hear the truth or realize they’re never going to have the success that you have. Probably not even 1% worth. Hold your head high, you should be proud of everything you’ve ever done.
@@davidholzer4155 I can't blame him for assuming that. I thought the same thing originally because every time I saw that term used it was in a negative light so when I finally googled it I laughed my ass off at how utterly retarded the world has become
David Johnson uhh because he has 2 hit podcasts, 40 years of experience, ran his own company, worked for NWA, WCW, WWF, SMW, TNA, ROH, England, & lately MLW... does conventions, sells merch, etc, etc. ...& he retired years ago & it on the road all the time
If I bought a wrestling company Jim would definitely be on my board. He has a great mind for pro wrestling and he’s here to remind us of great rasslin!
Already have and always had a true appreciation for Cornette since I was a kid and barely understood everything behind what I seen on screen. This whole segment isn't even in the slightest any kind of pontification, it's the truth, Jim could speak more proudly and braggadocio about his time in the industry if he wanted, cultivation of talent, pioneering ideas on so many different levels. I didn't like what Jim said about AEW but I can understand and respect what he has to say, it might be easier to please Meltzer than a thoroughbred Cornette. There's nobody better to critique the graps now than this man.
Cornette is the best. I’m not even much a wrestling fan, but his narratives, insults and sense of humour are excellent. I could listen to Cornette all day.
lol. Jim beefs with Trump folk and the sjw's. Now THAT is a heel. If I remember correctly the captain says to Joey "do you like movies about gladiators?"
That's a face to me. But I guess because he's just throwing insults instead of the real points, he's a heel. A bit like Daniel Bryan and the green stuff, he's probably right but he's a dick about it.
I think the culture shift is the issue. The woke super progessive media dominates twitter so Jim's direct approach to criticism will get backlash. While not many peope use twitter the loudest people make Jim feel like the world is against him when it is just a few thousand people. When he criticized the gay AEW wrestler the backlash was soley cause he is gay rather than the fact Jim may have had a point. It is hard to be direct like Jim and not offend modern talent.
@Millennial Smark I would not call myself conservative. I am a nonreligious libertarian on social issues, and like the tax rate as is. Many conservaties i know disagree with my interist is hip hop, pro choice stance, still talk bad about videogames, and seem to not be concerned with the environment. I am a live and let live kind of person where i don't care what religion someone practices just don't force it down my throat and i will leave you alone as well. Jim does have Trump derangement syndrome though. Even if i hate Trump's stance on videogames i still understand why so many middle Americans will vote for him and he deserves to be president. Jim seems to be stuck in 2016.
Jim Cornette is the best promo and mic in the business. The man is probably one of the top five managers in history. What kind of shit is it to ask if he’s relavant or not? Ask the top people in the business if he’s relevant or not.
Listened to a Wrestling Observer podcast and a dude with Brian Alverez brought up a point, that Bill Demont might be responsible for AEW. Since a lot of these guys went through WWE developmentmental, they complained how he was mean and a bully and didnt take shit from them, so they left. And now they cosplay wrestle. It was a very good point. So Jim might not be the only one to blame for AEW.
Chris Jericho promo in the first AEW TV show: "... And there's someone else who demands a Thank You for you fans" and the Midnight Express music hit, my god the heat my god
@mharris1270 All I was saying is if he would work full time he would still be able to add so much to the product today. Im well aware he doesnt have to financially nor does he feel he could handle travelling or dealing with certain people in the business
All these death match guys and indy wrestlers need to leave cornette alone. Them picking a verbal or legal argument with him, is about like pee wee herman challenging Haku to a street fight. Its not gonna end well.
I do remember when ring of honor was going to go out of business😢 Unfortunately they probably will Sell to Anthem Sports & Entertainment in the very near future..
Love how he can just list all of his credits, unlike his wrestling critics who have little to NO credits. But Jim will one day maybe realize that facts and evidence do not matter to these people because they believe as long as they can call you a racist or some kind of -ist or -phobic, that is all that's needed for them to invalidate you and validate themselves.
U crazy, its as big as it was 15 yrs ago. Al gave that place a big facelift. Nash, Chavo, Dreamer, Abyss, OVE, L.O.B, Madison Rayne, Rhino.. I'm telling u its a cool promotion again..
No one does a wrestling podcast better than Jim Cornette. Taking into account how much the business has changed and suffered over the last few years, Cornette is more important than ever. One of the greatest historians wrestling has, and an elder statesman, with all due respect. Very deserving to be in WWE Hall of Fame
As I see it, the problem with most new wrestlers young or old today isn’t a lack of skill but a lack of effort. Sure there’s no comparing guys now to the 70s or 80s but most wrestlers have the know how. They CAN cut halfway decent promos but prefer gimmicks that don’t allow for it. They can grapple but they’d rather do dives. They do know the psychology but would rather follow a script. And the reason there’s more wrestlers than ever that flood the market is because it’s easy to do the least minimum required effort
I cannot believe that this question can be asked . Jim Cornett is and will ever will be a huge asset to the world of wrestling . His work in 95 with the hearts is gold . We love y’a Jim Why are we wasting time questioning this ??🤭
I feel like Jim is relevant. I love hearing about all the behind the scenes stuff from when wrestling was good. Let me put it this way: 40 years from now will anybody care what Kenny Omega has to say on a podcast? I guarantee they will not. Yet millions listen to Corny decades later.
If jim knew the strory of Max Verstappen and his stunnong rise from GP3 too Formula One at the tender age of sixteen (he didn't even have his regular drivers license yet) his head would explode.
You are relevant to us old schoolers. I love to hear you talk shit about "Sports Entertainment." If I had the money To start my own company, you would be the man.
Jim Cornette has always been relevant in my book and one of my favorites of all time and will always remain relevant and be one of my favorites regardless of anything or anyone.
I used to be one of the Cornette haters but over time I realized how much knowledge and experience he has in the business and I can respect that. Also his lack of filter always seems to make me laugh in one way or another.
I didn't know Luke Owen had any fans. You must have lost a bet.

You can say what you want about Cornette, but he did more good than bad for wrestling.
And even when he accidentally fucked up wrestling in his mind it still was good for wrestling.... At least in the short term.

@Millennial Smark I would not call myself conservative. I am a nonreligious libertarian on social issues, and like the tax rate as is. Many conservaties i know disagree with my interist is hip hop, pro choice stance, still talk bad about videogames, and seem to not be concerned with the environment. I am a live and let live kind of person where i don't care what religion someone practices just don't force it down my throat and i will leave you alone as well. Jim does have Trump derangement syndrome though. Even if i hate Trump's stance on videogames i still understand why so many middle Americans will vote for him and he deserves to be president. Jim seems to be stuck in 2016.
Jim Cornette, MJF and Walter are the greatest heels in wrestling today.
Based on that look on Jim's face I'd say omega must have been the kid.
Janella
@@coryfowler7059 I dont know which is worse.
Jim Cornette is the best promo and mic in the business. The man is probably one of the top five managers in history. What kind of shit is it to ask if he’s relavant or not? Ask the top people in the business if he’s relevant or not.
Exactly
People get mad when I tell them Roman Reigns can't wrestle. 3 moves/stiff in the ring/weak promos
Listened to a Wrestling Observer podcast and a dude with Brian Alverez brought up a point, that Bill Demont might be responsible for AEW. Since a lot of these guys went through WWE developmentmental, they complained how he was mean and a bully and didnt take shit from them, so they left. And now they cosplay wrestle. It was a very good point. So Jim might not be the only one to blame for AEW.
fmdof Albert and Tripple H are responsible for NXT. Bill DeMott was toxic
I want a Netflix series with Jim Cornette telling wrestling stories and showing matches maybe even interviews with wrestling personalities
You've inspired me Jim, I'm gonna try out for the Dallas Cowboys tomorrow!
Did you make the team? Their 2020 record suggests that their team is made up of cosplay football players 🤣
Chris Jericho promo in the first AEW TV show: "... And there's someone else who demands a Thank You for you fans" and the Midnight Express music hit, my god the heat my god
2:05 "They called me a cis-gendered, white male. I dont have a fucking clue what that means but it doesnt sound complementary." I love this guy.
RIGHT??? 😂😂😂
He is relevant, and always will be. The ones that dont get him or understand why he is the way he is will never understand...
If you care or know anything about wrestling than you could never forget jim cornette the man is a legend he's seen nearly all the greats
Fact is wrestling is better whenever or however Jimmy is involved. Shame he wont work full time anymore. Hes built one hell of a legacy
@mharris1270 All I was saying is if he would work full time he would still be able to add so much to the product today. Im well aware he doesnt have to financially nor does he feel he could handle travelling or dealing with certain people in the business
Jim Cornette is a living legend. Respect.
I remember loving to watch 80's wrestling because of Jim Cornette and his tennis racket. That was the good ole days. Never will be the same again
I knew it!..I always thought that Shane McMahon resembled Jim Cornette more than he does his daddy. :v
Ric Ancira nah.........ain’t no denying that chin 😂😂
@@kaybee328 That's right...after all, he is the genetic jackhammer. lol
Ric Ancira dude!! kayfabe!!
Jim deals with telemarketers the same way I do. "F off, I'm doing something."
Kinda funny this Maury pic gets released three days after WWE doing the Maria Kanellis who is the baby daddy angle
That is such a bullshit angle. Rusev married to a smoking hot wife..
What fell into Maria? When? It's not even believable.
@@Biosynthnut I was wondering if they hired shitstain to write that angle, it reeks of his stink.
Gotta start answering those robo calls the way Jim does: "fuck off & rot I'm doing something!"
"Fuck off and rot I'm doing something!!" I had to pause the video I was in hysterics 😂😂😂🤣😆
The artwork is brilliant. This is the lost episode with Jim Cornette & Brian Zane. "Jim, You ARE the father!" (LOUD POP)
As relevant as ever.
They don't have to like you, but you're usually right.
Long live jim cornette 👍💯
Amen
Cornette is Vince's Holy grail, He knows he exists and how valuable is, but knows he can't have it.
I always use my left and right turn signals!
@Jacques Malan fair question, But yes i do! Thanks for asking
Indicators
@@vancebacri5894 ahh crap Corny would say indicators! Good catch!
Im a bum behind a Lowe's parking lot an you an disco inferno are the best heels of wrestling right now.
Stop stealing our concrete
@@PuppyMonkeyBabyy just got into town not me.
Corbin is doing good he’s getting death threats from the pussy ass smarks
All these death match guys and indy wrestlers need to leave cornette alone. Them picking a verbal or legal argument with him, is about like pee wee herman challenging Haku to a street fight. Its not gonna end well.
James Cheff they need Corny to get attention
We have to preserve our Jims (Cornette and Ross). They're the only samples of what great wrestling was that are still Relevant.
I do remember when ring of honor was going to go out of business😢
Unfortunately they probably will Sell to
Anthem Sports & Entertainment in the very near future..
Jim and brian, keep up the great work!!!👍
Ofcourse he's relevant,Jim is and always will be a legend👍
"Fuck off and rot, im doing something". I must borrow that line, whenever i need to answer unwanted call.
Love how he can just list all of his credits, unlike his wrestling critics who have little to NO credits.
But Jim will one day maybe realize that facts and evidence do not matter to these people because they believe as long as they can call you a racist or some kind of -ist or -phobic, that is all that's needed for them to invalidate you and validate themselves.
That thumbnail though...
LOLz
TNA impacts small crowd felt like a studio show minus the atmosphere
Jims landline telephone ringing as he rages about modern wrestling is absolute poetry
7:35 best part
I really feel that the "last string" that wrestling is hanging on by is Jim cornette
It’s the only reason I still watch. I want to see what Jim has to say about it lol
More people need to go back in the archives and find hidden gems like these.
Jim is my dude. F the Mark's!
Lil Joey Dickslinger is highly underappreciated
I like Cornette, but the idea that only leftists are "normal wrestling fans" shows how deeply flawed he is.
Answering a telemarketer: “Fuck off and rot, I’m doing something”! 😂🤣
Al Snow owns OVW now! I was apart of his last large show at 4th street live!
What did he buy it for? The cost of a McChicken? It has no value at this point.
U crazy, its as big as it was 15 yrs ago. Al gave that place a big facelift. Nash, Chavo, Dreamer, Abyss, OVE, L.O.B, Madison Rayne, Rhino.. I'm telling u its a cool promotion again..
No one does a wrestling podcast better than Jim Cornette. Taking into account how much the business has changed and suffered over the last few years, Cornette is more important than ever. One of the greatest historians wrestling has, and an elder statesman, with all due respect. Very deserving to be in WWE Hall of Fame
Jim Cornette will always have the clear yet unique perspective in wrestling you want to hear.
It will always be that way.
As I see it, the problem with most new wrestlers young or old today isn’t a lack of skill but a lack of effort. Sure there’s no comparing guys now to the 70s or 80s but most wrestlers have the know how. They CAN cut halfway decent promos but prefer gimmicks that don’t allow for it. They can grapple but they’d rather do dives. They do know the psychology but would rather follow a script. And the reason there’s more wrestlers than ever that flood the market is because it’s easy to do the least minimum required effort
I cannot believe that this question can be asked .
Jim Cornett is and will ever will be a huge asset to the world of wrestling .
His work in 95 with the hearts is gold .
We love y’a Jim
Why are we wasting time questioning this ??🤭
The snowflakes are still harassing this man?
The art on this one is awesome!!!!!
Jim is a pure genius,he will never be irrelevant. I may not agree with some of his views but still enjoy his style of entertainment
Jim answering calls mid show is the best.
I feel like Jim is relevant. I love hearing about all the behind the scenes stuff from when wrestling was good. Let me put it this way: 40 years from now will anybody care what Kenny Omega has to say on a podcast? I guarantee they will not. Yet millions listen to Corny decades later.
"So we're gonna have little fucken Grover, from Shitheel, NJ, we're gonna let him fly one of our 747s."
Fucking lost it
Most of the people who criticise jim aren't fit to lace his boots. It's not jim who isn't relevant, it's wrestling that isn't relevant anymore.
ME: GOOGLE?
GOOGLE: How can I help you?
ME: Find Shithill, New Jersey
Jim u don’t have to explain yourself. You’ll a legend. And if somebody doesn’t know they shouldn’t even be in the business
"FUCK OFF AND ROT, IM DOING SOMETHING!" I gotta use that the next time a telemarketer phones.
if you listen the son is aew. He indirectly created AEW. "It wasn't my idea but it was my fault."
Cornettes inability to compromise and evolve is the sole reason his handprint isnt molded within professional wrestling today.
Period
The way Cornette answered the phone call is now the way I'll answer telemarketers.
I will say it. Thank you Mr. Cornette. You should come on the next jericho cruise.
Why would Jim need to prove himself to anyone? Jim is a fucking legend. I don't always agree with him but he's a legend.
I'm doing my next job interview like this.
Dude will be revalant in 2119 and beyond!
The anti trumpers hate Cornette and yet he still embraces the Anti Trump movement.
Man, dedication.
If jim knew the strory of Max Verstappen and his stunnong rise from GP3 too Formula One at the tender age of sixteen (he didn't even have his regular drivers license yet) his head would explode.
I mean I'm a huge Elite fan but I LOVE listening to Cornette roast ANYTHING
I was watching old wwf n caught jim doing commentary 💪🏾
This has to have the best thumbnail art out of all the Cornette vids.
That thumbnail just made me remember how tragic it is that Jim disowned his son, Brian Zane.
Your a true heel Mr cornette. Getting heat by being just living. I love all you say... Well mostly. I do call myself a fan. Keep up all your good work
You are relevant to us old schoolers. I love to hear you talk shit about "Sports Entertainment." If I had the money To start my own company, you would be the man.
Jim Cornette has always been relevant in my book and one of my favorites of all time and will always remain relevant and be one of my favorites regardless of anything or anyone.
