i trust Dave's stories the most and those are mostly about fans fighting each other and getting into knife fights in the parking lot for no reason so it's really just that everyone was bored, huffing leaded gasoline and the drinking age was lower and rarely enforced

Ricky also feels like one of the first of the old-timers to praise how the current generation does thing in general, at least publicly on Twitter. I have to imagine somebody snitched tagged to Corny at least a few times about it and I've wondered if it sticks in his craw.

Hi, brainless here. I'm listening to the show and this segment just now. I think the quoted comments are the edgiest things in the conversation, which essentially is boiling down to:

edit: Just to be clear the sentences in quotes below are basically my abbreviated summary of the discussion between Jim Cornette and Brian Last:

"Yeah the internet sucks. We also get death threats on our family all the time, we block them.

People assuming it's the fault of Cornette and his fans (and attacking them) are assuming a lot (Brian Last flub at making a ReVeNgE aSsUmPtiOn on Kenny Omega - Omega's comments about American fans harassing Riho is why they brought up Hana Kimura, I don't think that was needed at all).

Don't harass anyone."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mY-1rVFPWEA

I don't agree with everything Cornette says, btw, but since you referred to me. I don't like 99% of comments he makes about women's wrestling in general. I also don't like what Hasan Abi said about the Hogwarts game or his failed allyship with the transgender community - but I'm not assumed to be a brainless bastard because I still listen to a bunch of his content.

You know that you do not have to take bait when it is presented, right

And furthermore, when bait is presented, you don’t have to take it and huffily tuck it in your jacket while insisting that you were right the whole time and everyone is being a meanie, all while totally missing the point

The problem isn't that you listen to Cornette it's that you defend dumb and awful poo poo he says. It's one thing to agree with his takes about modern wrestling and another to downplay his role in directing harassment towards certain wrestlers. It's whatever for him to poo poo talk people like Kenny or The Bucks who he has a personal history and back and forth with. Obviously he goes too far in those instances (insinuating Kenny is a pedophile or making homophobic jokes), but Riho has done nothing to deserve more than a normal critique you'd have of a wrestler. That doesn't include "jokes" that she was groomed since childhood by Kenny Omega and that her accomplishments are only the result of this imagined relationship with him.

It was very easy to just come in and say you find this poo poo abhorrent and indefensible, or just stop posting.

Cool now explain why it’s alright that Brian Last said maybe she got off twitter because she’s in an abusively controlling relationship with Kenny Omega and people should think about that instead before they blame the innocent souls of twitter.com

I've edited my post to better show that part of it is a summary of what Jim Cornette and Brian Last were saying on the segment of their podcast, not necessarily things I believe or subscribe to. The clips being posted are really just fuel for the folk already angry about him to be more justified in their anger.

The Kenny comments were literally "oh, so you guys make assumptions it's because of us??? Wellll HERE'S SOME ASSUMPTIONS" absolute shite attempt at an ironic counter-attack. I wouldn't even think twice about it but for the amount of people who are now sharing it 24/7. Yes the historic rants about Kenny Omega are rank rotten and if you are already upset about the Kenny Omega comments and then you hear this clip, I can see why you think it's bringing it up again. In the context of the conversation on the podcast I just saw it as a bad attempt at irony.

Hana Kimura was brought up because "American fans" are being assumed to be at fault for Riho leaving Twitter. That left an awful taste in the mouth whether it was relevant or not, but also don't think it makes sense to share a clip of it where it seems like they're mocking or laughing about the whole situation.

I don't think it's worth the amount of pearl clutching and hyper-nuts some people are getting about it. If you listen to the segment it has a bunch of needling to AEW, Kenny and Riho fans - but the message was bracketed about experiences on social media not being great and saying not to harass anybody.

Cornette reserves the right to rant, criticise and mock anyone involved in the profession and I guess that makes sense because that's why his podcasts are popular.
