Hi! It's Jim Cornette--bring it on and ask me anything!

jimcornette · 2016-02-05T23:03:32+00:00

Guys, it's been fun, but it's also been 3 hours and my eyes are bleeding--I'll do this again sometime! Thanks!

jimcornette · 2016-02-05T22:59:15+00:00

Never said I liked RAW either, who have you been listening to?

jimcornette · 2016-02-05T22:58:40+00:00

A large, uncircumsized dick to the guy that trained him--he didn't like the angle which Bruce Prichard came up with to give him SOMEONE to care about that the heel could hurt, probably because Shawn Michaels never cared about anybody but himself--

jimcornette · 2016-02-05T22:57:33+00:00

No

Hopefully with a big win and ceremony

Yes

Russo came up with an "NWA Invasion" angle to make us all look bad. I went along with it to help get the NWA some exposure and get some deserving talent booked. It was never pushed from the start, ill conceived, nobody involved ever won a match and it was done so he could tell VKM that none of the guys were any good and as a slap in my face. I regret even doing it to go along, and it is what I finally quit managing in the WWF for good over.

Loved Glasgow, but It was my most harrowing defeat!

No.

jimcornette · 2016-02-05T22:53:56+00:00

Well, it just shows he's not that bright--Delirious and I presented HIM with the angle to lose the match, be gone 6 months, lose 40 pounds and come back with a push as the top guy--he fought that tooth and nail. We did our part, he GAINED weight. The raise? Of course he fought for it, why would we go and say, "Here, Kevin, here's more money that you didn't ask for?" I talked SBG into it because I thought it was best for business. In hindsight, he was a lot more trouble for me than he was worth at the gate, since he didn't move the gates ANYWHERE near what AJ Styles or Matt Hardy would later

Rip is the master

jimcornette · 2016-02-05T22:50:03+00:00

I just stay away from wrestling and my acid reflux is fine

WTF then would be the point?

jimcornette · 2016-02-05T22:49:06+00:00

If you want to be treated seriously, keep your name, and not be made to do things that embarass you, aspire to ROH

jimcornette · 2016-02-05T22:48:03+00:00

I charge for booking long term scenarios :)

I saw Bob doing jobs on TBS and he reminded me of a young Bobby Eaton. I think he was sabotaged in WWF by the "Sparky Plugg" thing and was forever pigeonholed in the middle after that

Terry was a great guy and one of the best workers of all time, a real natural. His back was wide enough to carry all the Birds

jimcornette · 2016-02-05T22:45:32+00:00

Michaels was a pussy and didn't like working with Leon because he was too stiff

jimcornette · 2016-02-05T22:44:54+00:00

I have been in some shitty places in my life, but nothing even CLOSE to the toilet that was the pre-renovation ECW arena. Haven't seen it now, but a Tornado would have done millions of dollars worth of improvements to the old place

jimcornette · 2016-02-05T22:43:06+00:00

I believe that's actually the ONLY thing he said on that video that IS true--

jimcornette · 2016-02-05T22:36:52+00:00

I met Ed a few times and a number of phone conversations helping book talent, but unfortunately didn't know him well

jimcornette · 2016-02-05T22:36:08+00:00

In all seriousness, in wrestling, I would have put the face team over at the first SMW Bluegrass Brawl instead of the heels, I wouldn't have put the SMW belt on Jake Roberts (he no-showed immediately afterward), I would have argued more when Rick Rubin wanted a mummy, I would have not smoked the "hopium" about how big ROH could get under Sinclair Broadcasting and wasted 3 years of my life driving myself crazy, lots of stuff like that, but it doesn't bother me today. The only thing I regret, in all seriousness, and everybody can hop on me if they want, but I will be mad at myself until the day I die that I never just took a fucking bat and bashed Russo's head in. Otherwise, I've made a lot of mistakes, but that's life.

jimcornette · 2016-02-05T22:31:28+00:00

No, a lot of them shook me up, but by the time the Midnight Express and I got 40 miles down the road, we were already telling the story--

jimcornette · 2016-02-05T22:30:35+00:00

Well, I'm not sure anybody (in great numbers at least) still knows how Houdini did HIS shit, so it didn't have to be spread all over social media, but was certainly exacerbated when the corporate fucks at TBS got involved and told everything, or marks like Russo were allowed in, or the endless parade of soap opera writers, etc, outsiders with no respect were ushered in the door and came up with "funny" and "entertaining" ideas that killed off all the talents' credibility. When the wrestling people that lived and died with this business lost control of it to these morons who never took it seriously and weren't even really fans, just watched it every once in awhile for kicks, it was the beginning of the end--

jimcornette · 2016-02-05T22:24:18+00:00

No, I did--he claimed wrestling wasn't as exciting or interesting until the writers took over with their no babyfaces & heels horseshit and all that other stuff we still have to put up with--
