Memphis Wrestling: Jimmy Cornette tries to sign Dutch Mantel

[ccie12933]

I just bought Cornette's hat on eBay for seven bucks.

Cornette should've watched Richard Simmons in later years, when he ballooned up to 240 lbs!!!

@xcellken1 If you watched the shoot videos that Cornette did, he ate because he was pissed at Vince Russo.

@terry66062 If I had to work with Russo, I'd be rail thin, cause I'd always be throwing up.

HOLY SHIT!! THE BUSHWACKERS!!!

[SNAKEEYESSAM]

who was the first wrestler he managed?he was one of the all time greats.he is just a bigmouthed ass now.

[buck2239]

@SNAKEEYESSAM I beleive it was Sherri Martel aslo known as Sensational Sherri.

[mamacornettesmoney]

@SNAKEEYESSAM Sheri Martel was his first charge as a manager

[herbertkearse]

I always wanted to see Jimmy Cornette get the teetotal Shit beat out of him

[Lfdjake91]

Wow, just look how young Jim Cornette is here. Cornette would recover from this setback though & go on to be one of the greatest managers ever.

[fastmoverinbound]

cornette must of gave up the skipper hat for a tennis racket

[michaeleffmeredith]

Dutch looks kinda like Toy Caldwell of the Marshall Tucker band here. Check out some old vid footage of them and you'll see it too. I miss the old days of Memphis Wrestling.

[supernerd1964]

i do too. its a damn shame it,s gone. i think it,s gone for good.

[THRILLAKILLA187]

yep and vince Mcmann ruin the business too cuz it's all garbage now MANS SOAP OPERA!!! the old stuff will ALWAYS BE THE BEST!!!

[salanh]

So Mantel (indirectly) admits that he likes people who are coked out, drunk brawlers. Funny, funny stuff and set the wheels moving for one of the greatest managers in wrestling history.

One question, I got the tylenol reference but why were the Sheepherders out there? I don't remember Cornette trying to sign them, or did he?
