Jimmy Hart has always been a great as a manager and promo guy but hearing Jim put over what a great guy he is outside of wrestling is refreshing and exactly what I would hope to hear.
He annoyed the piss out of me as a kid, now I understand he was just good at his job.
@@maxxdahl6062I understand exactly what you mean, same thing can be said about Bobby Heenan, when I was young I hated Heenan, Jimmy Hart, and Mr Fuji, when I'm older I recognize just how great they really were.
I miss wresting mangers
I party with Jimmy every year for a wk in Daytona Beach when i goto see my dad . He has his own bar in the Mayan INN bottom floor .He once had no one there other then me and my wife . Due to crappy weather . He offered to pay for all our drinks if we would sit and watch RAW with him . So we did and was going to regardless if he paid at all. Jimmy is always happy and nice to ppl . And its hard to not like him with his positive attitude and how nice he is
Jelly
Wait,so Jimmy owns a bar in Daytona and is there regularly? Talk about getting what you paid for. Most celebrities that put their name n a bar/restaurant only show up at grand opening and are never seen again. It sounds like Jimmy hangs out in the off season at his bar.
Nice
@@lodi70005 Hes there every night just about but i herd the hotel sold to comfort siuets or how ever its spelled so dont know if the bar is still there
Same here. I'm about hour away and great fuy to chat with. Thing was no one knew he was there and everytime I went he was.
Jimmy is Hulk Hogan's advocate
He's the Cooler for all of the heat Hulk has attracted
The Wise Guy
Hart v Heyman at WrestleMania. Book it
This thread 🤣
One of the rare times Cornette simply praised someone. Jimmy Is a HOF and has loved the business for decades. People don’t realize how big he was before WWF. He even had a hit song
He praises people all the time
Cornette loves anyone who came from Southern Wrestling Promotions
Corny praises people all the time, it’s definitely not “rare”
he was huge back in the day ,1 of the greatest on promos of all time...and i wasn't around then but iv watched enough interviews that mention this...in fact hes still better on promos than 99% of the wwe current roster for sure...
@@Ryanonfire03he sure doesn’t praise Tim Horner 😂😂😂
Jimmy always seems like a legitimately kind dude.
Yes u gotta watch him and Ben mallah
Jimmy will always be on the payroll, he knows where the bodies are buried.
Or where the baby mamas are paid.
Great line
Never forget that Jimmy Hart made the Wolfpac music.
Good stuff but nothing compared to Lance Russell’s Nose sung by Jimmy Hart
and Sting's (crow) theme
I never knew that. Ima look it up
4👈
And Howard Helm. He co wrote 250 themes with Hart.
Didn't C-murder write the song?
The Mouth of the South... One of the best managers of all time!!!
Yep💯💯👍👍
Legend manager and composer.
When i was like 6 i thought Jimmy Hart was Bret and Owens (R.I.P) uncle. Ah to be a child again and assume everyone with the same name is related.
You mean they aren't? Man that Nigerian uncle of mines who recently emailed me regarding a family investment has some explaining to do!
Yup me too
The hart foundation.
This Artwork looks awesome props to Travis Heckel Glad he's going uphill he's the best.
No no he’s coasting downhill
@@thejkyle oh my mistake and Jim Cornette always gets me confused when he says that.
*downhill
@@dudebro5527 Downhill lol my mistake jim cornette always gets me confused when he says that.
Brian: No, he's going uphill.
Jim: I still don't see how going uphill is a good thing. Nonetheless...
One great manager talking about another. Great segment!
For all Hulk's faults, he always makes sure his people eats.
Hulk ALWAYS has an entourage who get paid when he gets paid.
Say your prayers and take your vitamins
Mongo Slade...Mongo Slade...From New York City...I think we can do business. Great character played by Cosby and Poitier in Let's Do It Again, one of my all-time favorite movies!!!
@@dajuaneharris7284 a classic
Mouth of the south is and has always been a class act.
the more Jim praises Jimmy the even less important brother bruti feels.
Both were bloated ticks on Hogan's ass. One was just less obtrusive.
To conflate Jimmy Hart with Brutus in any way is an insult in and of itself. Jimmy accomplished 10x more in wrestling than Brutus did just by virtue as a manager.
Ouch.
I found out the other day Jimmy Hart did much of the production for the original entrance themes in WCW. That man is a walking corporation
OSW review is doing a WCW arc from 98 when Jimmy was doing the music for entrances. The ripoffs Jimmy used were hilarious. He straight ripped from Nirvana, GnR, Pearl Jam, Slayer, Alanah Miles.... Changed it enough he wouldn't get sued, and passed it off as his own. Pay me!!!
@@billhicks6449 DDPs music was nirvanas "smells like teen spirit" riff played backwards.
@@zombieninjatedsmith1301 and Jericho's was even flow in a major key. Lol.
Didn't he write the some of the 80s WWF themes as well? I could've sworn he came up with Bret Hart's theme.
@@Lanisteelerocks he did the hart foundations music then Jim Johnson basically re-recorded it for Bret. He did the rockers, Shawn Michaels, Dusty Rhodes, Jimmy Snuka and a couple others from the 80s.
Shout out to Travis Heckel
I went to Hogan’s beach grand opening on a New Year’s Eve and I got to talk to jimmy for like 30 min. He was a great dude and doesn’t age!
I laughed hard when he said Pritchard called them the feather and the spike.
"Jimmy's the most unannoying person in the history of the world." Except when he was ringside lol
Always great to hear praise for people we grew up watching
Say what you want about Hogan! He always looked out for his mates Jimmy,The Nastyz,Beefcake all had an do have good careers from Hulk.
Bobby Heenan is another one Hogan always brought with him.
Honky Tonk is another who wouldn't have gotten anywhere without him.
Brutus
@@heri623 beefcake?
@@crazycarper3780 you mean the desciple?
"That little runt..." Gorilla Monsoon.
That Little Runt Too !!!!!!
Man I miss monsoon and Heenan on the mic those to where the best ever
O should you stop it
That Little Pipsqueak!!!!!!!!
Jimmy has some of the best jackets he really does
Met Jimmy at a Hogan book signing, I asked if he would also sign the book and he said "sure thing buddy". Class Act!
You met him at a BOOK signing and he signed your BOOK? Is it just me?...
@@MarcoNegrisEye it was Hogans book..
@@AHeroAlmost I know but if Jimmy was at a book signing with him it's hardly a big deal is it?
@@MarcoNegrisEye its just you because you dont have a brain. It was obviously a Hogan book signing and I asked if Jimmy would ALSO sign my book
@@MarcoNegrisEye i made a youtube comment on a video talking about how nice of a guy he is when he goes along with Hogan at events. Why are you so bitter and bothered by a simple youtube comment?
Get a grip. wow
Jimmy Hart hasn't aged a day.
It’s the hair plugs
The secret is to constantly cross the International Date Line.
Most underrated manager of all time , one of the few that could pull off being a face
Oh yeah, Jimmy's ready. Check Jimmy out. Jimmy's got some new moves. [Slips and falls from the water.] Jimmy's down!!!!
Don't touch Jimmy!
Jimmy doesn't like misunderstandings...
Jimmy is getting upset!
"Jimmy holds grudges!"
Shout out to the Cult of Cornette
Met jimmy a few times in Clearwater, FL at hulks store and at the bar. Sat there talking to us having lunch. Very personable and good conversation. That said I’m sure he’s got the dirt on hulk. Love jimmy as a manager
Shout out to the bottom shelf whiskey I'm drinking
Another member of the Senators Club.
Glad to see Travis artwork
if Hulk was Jabba The Hut then Jimmy Hart would be Salacious Crumb
Well played. Here's a tax credit.
Lol! That should have been the art!
What would that make Brutas? Bib Fortuna maybe?
@@nickm2483 lol. That's messed up 😂😂😂
@@nickm2483 Good one! Tax credit for you!
"That no work for Hulka. The brotha you no botha!"
Jimmy Hart was in a band called The Gentrys in the 60s. They had a radio hit called "Keep On Dancing."
Trivia from the back of 1990-1991 WWF Trading Cards.
I went to a book signing at the RJ Julia book store in Madison Connecticut roundabout 200x because Hogan "wrote" a "book" and it was probably the only opportunity I would ever have to meet someone like that, and Jimmy Hart was there. Not next to Hogan but he could be seen in another room presumably entertaining specialer guests than the ones in line.
Jimmy Hart regularly goes to the Hogan Beach shop in Clearwater. Several times a month he's there. Saying Hi to fan's and taking pictures.
Ive mentioned this before in these comment section. I owned a limo company and bounced in clubs in the 80s and 90s. I did all of Hogans transportation needs for him Jimmy Hulls family and I have so many stories just from being around all these guys. Hogan and Jimmy were always just good guys!
Write an article, then.
@@goodday2760 why, I would never spill any dirt. They treated me good. If I were to want to make money from these times I would have done it back then
Can't wait to meet him Saturday in Belleville Illinois at the sicw halloween spooktacualr!!
And King Haku
"He's like a brother, brother"
Cornette is my new manager? That doesnt work for me brother
I met Jimmy Hart in Countryside Clearwater Florida, he could not be nicer or more fan friendly.
Jimmy is the most beloved figure in wrestling history. I can’t think of anyone ever talking shit about Jimmy Hart
It's funny, because I see Jimmy Hart at comic conventions (in character and in costume) when Hulk Hogan is there signing autographs, even if Jimmy Hart isn't promoted as attending. So I guess he's Hulk's handler in real life too.
"The Feather & the Spike" line is spot on!
But we love 'em both!
Was on a show with Jimmy back in June, and he's still a class act. I also must say he doesn't look like he has aged one bit.
It’s freaky how little he’s changed since the ‘80s.
Love Jimmy’s jive!👍
No you wasn’t
Yes he has aged. He looks so fake now
I'm 40 and I still don't have the energy of the 78 year Jimmy Hart, bless that man.
hope all is good travis!
Hulk needed someone to carry the weed...
its sad what happened to Jimmy's daughter, legends house when he talked about that made me cry , dude was treated like crap by people but smiled and did his job . but never told the pain of his daughters death
I didn't know Jimmy's daughter died. What happened to her?
Thank you for sharing stories about Jimmy "The Mouth of the South" Hart!! I loved hating him!! He is so underrated, undercelebrated and underappreciated ❤❤ LOL
Brian can't help but take a shot at Hulk.
There's certain people he has to take a shot at no matter what the conversation is.
Vince
Hogan
Jericho
Bruce Pritchard
Michael Cole
Travis nails it again with the artwork
When Jim praises you, you know you are a good person
Jimmy opening up on Legend's House really showed he's not just that hyper-crazy manager. He showed he's a kind, caring and loving guy.
Jimmy's a regular at Winghouse Tampa. Got to meet him.
That's awesome
No you didn’t
I don't think Jimmy Hart became Hulk Hogan's manager until he went to WCW
He became Hogans manager during his last year in WWF which was 1993
Jimmy hart owned a hotel in Daytona the mayan. I lived an hour from there and went to beach alot. Great guy loved telling war stories. Broke my heart when he sold it. Bar was a great museum too
You’ve never met the man
I use to see Jimmy Hart at Hogan’s Beach restaurant in Tampa all the time. In fact I swear to god I saw Jimmy running the valets one time lol.
You can tell Cornette likes Jimmy Hart by how deftly he danced around calling him a "stooge"
I feel like I'm watching a Seinfeld episode.
I've always seen Jimmy as a goofy, long haired, shades wearing, loud suit wearing SoB. Having Corny paint this picture of Jimmy, I understand now and stand corrected. Learn something new everyday. Thank you guys.
I totally remember Jimmy Hart. What a character.
Hogan had a restaurant called Hogan's Beach in Clearwater Jimmy managed the place had my wedding rehearsal dinner there in 2014 it was great!
You had your wedding rehearsal at a Hulk Hogan restaurant? 🤔👀
Damn you know one thing for sure that girl must really love you
@@Doomsday604 O Yea!!! Her whole family came in I had a bunch of friends from high-school fly in we took over St. Pete Beach for a week it was Amazing! She got to pic the venue which was on the beach I got to pick the rehearsal dinner spot!!!
@@neilsmith9066 hahahah I still can't believe you went to fucking Hogan's restaurant of all places🤣.
But you do you my man. I support your vibe. 🙏🏽. Glad you had a great time
@@Doomsday604 🤣 👍
They played Jimmy's song Dance Dance Dance (I think it's called) on the oldies station the other day.
I only clicked on this because the art is back to Travis Heckel. Glad you guys started paying him he is worth it.
Huh?! I was in the hospital for 11 days and then home recuperating
@@travisheckel3788 Glad you are healthy and back sir. Please stay healthy and continue making the fans happy. We are all happy you are back and will forever hope you are paid properly.
@@stunner55 Thanks. I'm getting there. SLow and steady
I always liked jimmy hart I met him once when I was 12 got a picture and a autograph one of the nicest guys I ever met
No you didn’t
@@Ijustinsultedyou Pre-Covid meet and greets with wrestlers happened all the time.
@@Ijustinsultedyou got any proof I didn't? This was 25 years ago so unless you was stalking me or jimmy hart you have no way of knowing if I did or not
@@crazyparanormalinvestigato2007 got any proof that you did ??? Hit the road Junior
@@Ijustinsultedyou actually yes I do have proof I have the picture and autograph so if your done hiding in the bushes and touching yourself to everything I do I'd be happy to show you
Jimmy sounds like a top guy. Lots of people speak highly of him.
I just remember as a kid seeing Hogan tag team with Randy Savage and thinking they don't look like friends.
I'm not using this to bash the wrestlers but how many wrestlers in 80's wwf can say they never did drugs? Jimmy Hart is one of the very few that can say it.
Jimmy did do drugs. He probably didn't overdo it like the others
@@fatalsniper3413possible he did later on. but Honky Tonk Man said, Jimmy was never on anything. he did chase the rats though.
king was another who claimed this ....
I will never forget Jimmy Hart turning up as a "manager" in that nude women's wrestling event.
Funny how the biggest heels have the professional reputations.
On screen bad guy hate him
Off screen give you the shirt off their back even if they freeze
I used to work at a home depot in Tampa FL and Jimmy Hart would come and pick up supplies for his restaurant Hogan's Beach even as soon as 5 years ago
I own a comic book and vintage toy store and travel on the road to Comic cons. I have had the opportunity to meet several celebrities in this capacity. This spring I did a show in the Quad Cities where my store is located and got the chance to meet Jimmy Hart. As is the case with most appearances at shows like this he charges to get autographs and photos with fans. As a vendor at the shows, I have that same option but in some cases the celebrities' cut deals with us. During a lull in the show, I just walked over to his booth and asked how the show was going. From that point we got to talking about the history of wrestling and talked for nearly half an hour. He was a great person. Very approachable being at events like this meeting the fans. Chavo Guerero Jr. was also at the event, and he came over to my booth and inquired how I had gotten into the business as a comic and vintage toy vendor. Spoke with him for about the same time. I have also been set up as a vendor at shows with Mick Foley, Buff Bagwell, Brutis Beefcake, and Sargent Slaughter.
Oddly Jimmy Hart was also with Hogan on the Giga Cheese Show Thunder in Paradise with Ed Leslie
Hulk and Jimmy have been good friends for many years I thought this was common knowledge that friendship was also a business relationship too and seriously can everyone stop bashing Hogan why would Jimmy have to "put up" with Hulk?? You don't think Hulk took care of Jimmy and that Jim had alotta perks helping Hulk?? Seriously Hogan isn't anywere near as bad as social media makes him out to be Hogan is a business man but he also has a human side to him as well
Jimmy Hart is a real Legend imo
Lol this question definitely should be addressed to Jimmy Hart not Jimmy Cornette.
Jimmy is a solid guy. Everyone in the business says that.
Heenan. Hart. Cornette. Heyman.
Jimmy is also good friends with Property Mogul Ben Mallah. I know because I seen him on Ben's channel lol.
*Jim himself, Jimmy Hart, Paul Heyman. IMO: 3 of the biggest & most iconic managers in wrestling of all time!*
Bobby Heenan
Don't forget Bobby heenan
@@brood1316 correct very correct, you are. I deff can not forget him. A true Legend YES!
@@mikeyvintageunboxing
Yeah, I would say the four mentioned are on the Mount Rushmore of wrestling managers.
Bobby The Brain Heenan too 🧠 🐐
RIIIIING! RIIIING! Hey, is Cindy in? "Who is this?" What do you mean, "who is this?" This is Jimmy Hart, the Mouth of the South! What? She's gone to the Rick Springfield concert? Rick Springfield?!?
He whispered one word…”yipipaw brother”
“To handle a lot of his s***”.
Yeah, I heard he did that through airports.
I grew up knowing Jimmy Hart as a heel manager in the 80's. I always felt he could have been a great manager for the "good guys".
" YEAH BABY. CMON BABY. HAHAHA '
Hogan doesn't have reputation with the workers, it is the fans who have created these imaginations that the workers hate HH.
I perfered MEMPHIS jimmy hart to "up north , circus ) jimmy hart.
Arrangements with Hogan and Jimmy Hart are similar to those with the Road Warriors and Paul Elering🤔😳
Jimmy Hart is Holding a Bunch of Stuff in Storage for Hulk, & Gets "Benefits" for Doing So.
(& Keeping His Mouth Shut about The Secrets&Truth, He (JimmyHart) Knows.)
I always liked Jimmy because he’s really good at playing an obnoxious ass lol
that what wwe needs is another annoying small heel guy ,that can cut promos,but they wont do interesting things anymore...
Jimmy Hart got that 60s love to him
When I was a kid I used to get James E Cornette and Jimmy Hart mixed up a lot. James E Cornette had the Tennis Raquet, Jimmy Hart had the Bullhorn
Beefcake carries the weed and Jimmy handles the cash/planning… imagine if the roles were reversed 😂
People forget that hogan got his leg broken when he first tried to get in the business. If that happened to me, I would’ve took this business and everything in it. Just like hogan did.
Sure thing tough guy
@@trahapace150 Ooo you’re so cool!
@@lookoutside9083 i am about as cool as you are tough....
Did Hogan really get his leg broken deliberately to slow him down? Or did he make that up as well
@@grantgibson2699 People would do stuff like that to young guys who wanted to break into the business. The "idea" was that if they were serious about it, they'd come back after they'd healed up.
It didn't always go according to plan though. I can't remember who it was, but one guy decided to legitimately rough up a young hopeful, who was one Dick Slater...
Beans and taters and beer in cans
I liked the megaphone.
I always wondered, what part of HBK’s theme did Jimmy contribute? Lyrics?
I love the artwork of Hulk Hogan……..Jim Cornette is right about Jimmy Hart….
Yay the old artwork!
the feather n Spike ohhhh hellll yeaáhhh
Tradeing places hunh jim should have been jimmy cornette i liked your hulk up with paul haymen
