Ian's a wrestling promoter so trying to lionize him as a great human being is a futile task but he's got more skin in the game than Cornette does and mostly minds his own business.

jim's pretty fuckin awful but 2000 Terry Funk vs 2000 Taker would have been a spectacle. Maybe do a motorcycle keys ladder match or something for a little extra McMahonism.

Matt's doing his best work since the original Broken run and Cornette has the gall to criticize this? That's blatant clickbaiting. Also way to break kayfaybe, Jimmy.

having sat through 6+ hours of Raven's art of booking shoots, I can tell you that most self professed wrestling geniuses are tremendous idiots that you can boil down to 2 minutes worth of "smart" soundbytes.

Hoss Corncave posted:There was that feud that he and Kenny Bolin had years ago where they were saying all kinds of things about each other and when they finally had their "debate", I clearly remember Cornette saying to Bolin "You're a Grizzly Smith!" after some talk about young girls. If he wasn't aware about it when it was going on, he definitely was about 10 years ago. Kenny Bolin also produced Jim Cornette's illegitimate biracial child at one point. There were a lot of telling things in those exchanges.

Cornette's def covering for people. I think the FBI should go through their missing persons cases and see if his well-documented travel schedule lines up. or just have some MDK leg breakers show up at his house.

yeah I mean, Omega, who wasn't even involved with the planning or the execution of the segment, called up some fan in his best Jim Cornette voice and convinced him to jump the rails. This is on top of putting his own segments together, doing executive QA on the game project, scheduling his dates, drafting harrassing subtweets to Jim Cornette and polishing his belts. Busy guy.

Cornette toured places where electricity, clean water and telephone service wasn't guaranteed. Higher than average infant mortality rates. So your diceroll on dipshit fans also includes Brings A Gun, Steals Cars and personal favorite: Elaborate Family Vendetta

MassRafTer posted:As I go through 2004 ROH again I keep thinking about what a shame it is that Cornette is the way he is. If he were open minded he'd maybe be less racist, but he could also be a really beloved figure in non WWE wrestling. The angles he does with the Midnight Express and Heenan are a lot of fun. But as he starts to really lose his mind in the aughts he becomes this sad shell of himself... and more of a bigot. and it was a conscious choice too. No one could reign Cornette in, so pretty much any place of note cut bait with him once they realized this. Say what you want about Russo but I don't think I've ever heard a story of him going into a screaming and cursing tirade over an angle not going down how he imagined it. You can't make money with heat machines that can't turn off. Particularly ones that get violent, racist or misogynistic. One of the reasons Delirious Era ROH sucked so hard was they had to waste time untangling whatever bloodfeud Cornette and some office type got wrapped up in. People can blubber about freespeech or the way things were all they want. Meanwhile the rest of the industry has dates and houses to fill.

sba posted:can someone sum up for me why Jim hates AEW/Omega/etc?? I've never heard the backstory of it two things: 1. Omega is a hot non-WWE wrestler right now, easy to drive clicks by attempting to own him 2. Omega decided not to do an ROH date and instead took a last minute booking in Japan when Jim was handling talent for ROH. Which, if you dig into Cornette's management style(mostly cursing and violent threats), you can see why Kenny's like nah gently caress that, I'd rather wrestle some matshow in Shinjuku Face's lobby. Kenny King also did what Kenny did but did Chippendales instead of Japan. Also gets the same level of vitriol.

and yeah AEW didn't give Cornette a job, despite his GLOWING track record in the last 30 years. So obviously AEW is stupid and doesn't know what they're doing.

Long-Time Lurker posted:The olds and old-adjacent constantly whining about anything "killing/exposing the business" when the business has been exposed for decades just makes wrestling look even lamer to outsiders imo. It's just so pathetic. it really hasn't tho? People don't chant bump and feed or whatever. They come and cheer on their faves and boo their rivals. A great time is had by all except for crummy old men who are mad because their rapey hordes aren't venerated.

Pylons posted:This is the Cornette thread, but apparently Konnan is expressing doubt on his podcast that Hangman should be the next champion because "the fans may want it, but Hangman doesn't bring any new fans into the product". The only way to get over with Konnan is to watch his matches and tell him how much you loved him throwing shoes and poo poo.

if you're giving Jim Cornette's podcast (a known source of filth and old man yells at clouds bullshit) sponsorship money, you probably know what you're getting. If Jim wasn't loving with worker's money putting hit pieces on them, it'd be a great comedy podcast. The bits they did with the morbidly obese conman hold up pretty well, aside from the Jim Cornette's illegitimate child bit. That was pretty racist.
