  • always offended when they refer to fans as marks i dont watch this shit any more

  • 2:38

    It's scary the way the interviewer is looking at Jim. I think he has a Jim Cornette shrine in his basement. Along with a dog cage...Jim's would be future home if he ever got caught slippin'...

  • I love James E. I don't agree with his stance on hardcore wrestling, however. I think a lot of that animosity comes from Paul Heyman taking it as far as he did back in the day. If you can build up an angle that blows off in a very violent match, then do it!

  • @dele3344 He does not hate hardcore wrestling. He hates hardcore wrestling that has no purpose behind it, and is done CONSTANTLY because it nullifies the effect that hardcore wrestling is supposed to bring to a feud. They did scaffold matches and used flash paper in his days.

  • He is right I remember when Hulk Hogan got smashed by Earthquake or when Marty Jannetty was thrown to a glass window but i tend to forget the attitude era even though it was more hardcore. I guess we just got immune to there antics

  • "transvestite blowjob on mark henry" LMAO ROFL

  • "It was so bad it was hurting the crowd's feelings". Hilarious.

  • Comment removed

  • "Oh well, here comes a midget match! No time to grieve!"

  • I like Jim's vocabulary, ''Proposterosity'! LOL! Greatest wrestling mind around!

  • WHOS THE MARKS!?

  • who shot john bullshit lmao!!!!

  • Face it wrestling is dead in this country. To many old wrestlers who can't let go because a lot of them are broke.

  • Stuff like Undertaker, suspending disbelief that he is really "the grim reaper" or whatever, is one thing. That's awesome. But having "hot lesbian action" or the Kane/Katie Vick angle? Fucking stupid, and has nothing to do with wrestling.

  • What a legend.

  • They had to do their shit, even though the shit they already did was some shitty shit...?? WTF

  • JIm's shoots are the best

  • Pure awesomeness.

  • cornettes topic on "couldnt be possible in real life" doesnt apply to the greatest icon in wrestling, the undertaker, whats he talking about? though he is a very well informed man, great wrestling mind

  • kinda reminds me of some of the AWA stuff from the 80's. guys would put each other in headlocks or armbars for 5 minutes....

  • some shit but shit it was shittiest shit i ever shit shit

    lmao

  • Cornett is insane. No one ever believed wrestling was real. This man is never happy

  • Comment removed

  • @voteforcanman Watch the video dumbass. Cornette never said at anytime during this video that wrestling was real. What he was doing is trying to explain to your dumbass how wrestling works by telling some stories and cracking some sarcastic jokes. That's what he does best when he does these shoot interviews. Next time, maybe Sean and Cornette should use some cue cards during the video, because nobody believes wrestling is real. Just because he's passionate about the subject matter when he talks

  • @voteforcanman about it doesn't mean he thinks he's real. I guess you thought to yourself, "Well, let me make a smartass comment about Cornette is bitter and thinks wrestling is real". Well, guess what dumbass? Your comment ended up being an epic fail. Want to spin the wheel again on the Price is Wrong and make an ass out of yourself again. BE MY GUEST!!!

  • He is awesome.

  • AWESOME COMMENT: Wrestling used to be about people pretending to hurt each other but the crowd beleived they were, now they really are hurting each other and no one beleives they are!!

  • i have mixed feelings for this guy hes pretty smart for wreslting standpoint but comes off a douch in everyway talks way to much shit n is completly ignorant wen it comes to war n canada fucking idiot

  • Jim made a perfect statement. We went from a business in which guys didn't hurt each other but the fans thought they did, to a business in which guys really hurt each other but fans don't believe it.

  • @fjccommish they always got hurt hes wrong even in the 80's people were injured!

  • yeah i wanna see the whole thing :D i could listen to cornette talk all night

  • awesome stuff

  • If Cornette and Heyman could put their differences aside and book a company with substantial financial backing, it would be some glorious stuff.

  • @peterp21

    well, multiple times w/ hbk.. and w/ bret hart in december 1995

  • @peterp21 The point Cornette was making was that, while he was "booking" WWE at that time, he had next to no creative freedom in doing so. All booking decisions had to be passed by Vince & John Laurinitas. If the booking at the time was bland, remember that it was strictly Cornette's fault.

  • @peterp21 Never been mind blowing as an onscreen personality or booker? PUHHHLEASE. Or you serious The Midnight Express was the top heel tag team of the 80s. It was b/c of Cornette's personality that they drew a lot of heat (and money) back then. And booker? He was great with OVW and ROH today puts on better wrestling shows than TNA and WWE. 1995 WWF was bland because of VINCE McMAHON, not Cornette. Vince is the sole decider of creative direction in that company. Don't ever forget that.

  • @peterp21 yes... but bulldog should've won a wwf world title in the 90's. he was my 3rd favorite "superstar" next to hbk and austin.

  • @peterp21 The Midnight Express? They were the top heel tag team at the time. And as a booker, you don't need to be mind-blowing.

  • @peterp21 Cornette was on the creative team back then but he explained that during them times in the WWF, he and another person, who's name I can't remember, used to chill out and then when it came to the meetings Vince would take over and control everything like the control freak he is. It didn't matter if Cornette came up with a good idea cause Vince probably wouldn't have listened. Therefore, the creative team was just Vince and just Vince came up with the bad ideas; not Cornette.

  • @saffy7861 that other guy would was Bruce Pritchard...aka Brother Love.

  • @peterp21 He was on the booking team for the WWF in 1996 and 1997. Early 98 or late 97, he was off of the booking team.

  • I wouldn't say you can judge him as a booker by what was going on in WWE while he was there, especially considering that he was very often the dissenting voice on the committee, telling Vince not to re-label Vader/Cactus Jack/Terry Funk/etc. He never had anything like the control Russo has/had at TNA or Sullivan had at WCW (or Bischoff or Russo or whoever else was there). While running his own promotion, he did bring Lance Storm and Jericho to the US. Pretty good eye for talent, based on that.

  • @peterp21 "Never really a mind blowing as an on screen personality" Clearly you never saw him with the Midnight Express in the NWA.

  • pretty shitty shit

  • I freakin love this guy. Thumbs up if you had a birthday watching this video. lmao.

  • cornette should be running the wrestling biz. he seems to be the only 1 who knows how to do it

  • can you send me this vid? Love Cornette. He makes me smile

  • "some pretty shitty shit" wiser words have never been spoken

  • Best line ever uttered - - - WHO'S THE MARKS???

  • @SeanMBryans  And it's so true!!

  • Preposterosity.

  • Only 13+ thousand people like hearing the truth.........this planet is DOOMED

  • @MyBloodbrother Yes but 1 person dislikes the truth...... meh im gonna blame it on russo

  • I can listen to this man forever. A brilliant mind. Love it.

  • Man Cornys shoot are awesome haha I love them. Where can i find this?

  • I like him, he doesnt mind being angry, like me!!

  • Jim Cornette don't take any shit. Especially if the shit you try to give him is some pretty shitty shit.

  • "They had to get their shit in, even though their shit was some pretty shitty shit." Lol, He just had to use that word as much as he could get away with. That's some dedication.

  • this man is so knowledgeable about the wrestling business. I can't see the new ROH tv deal being anything but successful with Cornette's backing.

  • The dislike on this video has to come from Vince Russo

  • That sentence at 2:48... so incredibly right on the money.

  • Please, where is this from???

  • @Medication102

    UNLOCK your "friend only" message sending, i've been trying to send you links to this vid "Guest Booker: Jim Cornette"

  • @RiseandFallofWCW Could you send them to me, I've been searching for it for so long.

  • @Medication102 his guest booker 

  • "Perposterosity."

    Cornette is the greatest.

  • why in the hell is that guy sitting so close to him with such a gay look on his face

  • sense is for losers

  • im so honored to have met him and bashed vince russo with him

  • Why did the Cornette's Commentary stop in Nov 2010?

  • @fjccommish According to the Whoslammingwho website, Corny says that he doesn't want to keep bashing the wrestling business week in and week out, so he'll do another commentary when there's actually something good to talk about.

  • @carl22069. If wrestling in the US (and Britian now because we have gone the same way) was about true great athletes, Taka Michinoku and Sho Funaki would not have been comedy jobbers in the WWE. Some of the Japanese and Mexica promotions have a better idea of what should be done than the American and European ones

  • Mick Foley once said that if WWF was about talent, TAKA Michinoku would be champion.

  • @Mistertbones I remember that, TAKA was a great worker, if you look at great promotions during their respective hayday like World Class, WCW, WWF/E and even ECW, there's a perfect blend of good workers, a strong mid card and main event guys who drew money, wrestling is cyclical and hopefully we aren't far away from another peak era in the business. Unfortunately as long as TNA spends their TV time mentioning WWE it may be a while though!!

  • Hey I agree about the hardcore wrestling shit.

  • Bullshit! The great thing about wrestling is that anyone can compete. Fat people, small people, muscle bound freaks, midgets, men and women as long as you can work in the ring. Your mind has been so polluted by Vince Mcmahon and his sports entertainment shit that you're willing to deny someone their wish to be a wrestler just because they don't conform to YOUR STANDARDS.

  • What do wrestlers look like?

  • "Who's the marks? WHO'S THE MARKS?"

    When you have more marks in the locker room than the crowd, you have a serious fucking problem.

  • @carl22069 Ugh I know

    Necro Butcher is one of them

  • Jim Cornette looks funny in a t shirt. I'm used to seeing him in a suit or at least a dress shirt.

  • @sserpent21 Also where is his tennis racket......in my head he sleeps with it showers with it

  • @jackhovatter I think he shoved it up a Dairy Queen workers ass one day.

  • @sserpent21 Lmao the best part of that is Jericho egging him on in the background

  • @sserpent21 Preferably at the Dairy Queen in Hyden, Kentucky :P

  • where is this interview from

  • That's some pretty shitty shit.

  • love this man

  • he knows too much about pro wrestling why wouldnt wwe keep him on board

  • @MrAkbaz because of exactly that, he knows PRO WRESTLING, he deplores 'SPORTS ENTERTAINMENT'

  • I could listen to him all day

  • @mattkosch True
