Your a hero!! Thank you
"Outlaws gonna outlaw and mud show's gonna mud show." LOLOLOLOLOL
I live near Voorhees, N.J. CZW was running at the original Skate Zone, which is a twin rinks youth hockey facility that is also the practice rink for the Philadelphia Flyers. They have a floor rink as well for indoor lacrosse and street hockey, and that is where CZW ran their shows. Before them, ECWA (East Coast Wrestling Association) ran there after Jim Kettner retired and sold the promotion. I never understood why the Flyers would allow them there. In the past, I heard a story that Johnny Kashmere, then a student at Drexel University in Philadelphia, got the college to book CZW in their gym. What happened was the promotion destroyed the place. Bleacher, chairs, locker stalls were ruined, causing several thousand dollars in damage. The school didn't sue CZW. They didn't sue Kashmere. They sued his PARENTS! Combat Zone has had a lovely tradition of rarely running in the same building twice and in the process, damaged the reputations of the rest of us, who couldn't get into buildings because of the things that they had done.
One of my mentors, who broke me into the business, was Les Morgan, who worked under the names "Dirty Morgan", Toolie MacTavish and Little Abner for Nick Gulas in Tennessee. His daughter, Heidi Lee Morgan, wrestled in the 1990s for WWF, WCW, etc. Together, we had a wrestling school called Ringmasters. We had a few wrestlers come in and train with our students as they passed through the area, Paul Diamond and Pat Tanaka being two. They imparted great advice and wisdom to our students. But the CZW kids that would come in, even some of the kids from the Monster Factory, had to be retrained because they were being taught improperly. One kid was thrown out of our school by Heidi Lee because he refused to post on a hip toss. He said he could get better elevation without it. She said, "Good. Keep doing that. The demo tape you send to WWF will end up in the trash can 30 seconds after they see your version of the hip toss."
All they cared about was a gimmick, a ring name, with very little concern for training properly. Even their bumps were suspect. It got to the point where, whenever a CZW wrestler came to us to train, Les Morgan would show them the door.
Death Matches sound like a hep c pond
Just ask the wrestlers that got Hep C from Abdullah the Butcher.
One thing i can't stand is when wrestlers go around saying wrestling is fake. Your job is to get people into the product not destroy it and i love this thumbnail.lol
@John Doe Well it's your life so you can support what you want to support.
Cactus Jack and Terry Funk are the best workers, with the Hardcore style. These matches do have to take place the right way, and the right time. With no extremely dangerous B.S in my view.
Danny Altobelli moxley & janela worked a super safe hardcore match & Cornette still shit on it. He disrespects Foley & Funk every time he says everyone that participates in hardcore wrestling are idiots. There's a difference between mudshows & hardcore matches done right.
New item on Cornette Collectibles: 1 hour pass to Jim's backyard petting zoo 😸🙉🐷🐑🐒🐮🐔🐗🐸🐍🐄🐇🐅🐓🐀🐩🐪🐆
Lio Rush was a CZW heavyweight champion. 5'6", 160 pounds and he was a HEAVYWEIGHT champion.
@ron litton Was he? Shit...
😂😂😂
And Rey Mysterio was the World Heavyweight Champion at the same height and 170 pounds. Point is?
@@nealwesco7465 Rey was also an underdog. It makes more sense to have an actual heavyweight as champion. That should be the norm.
@@jg3000 are you guys on crack comparing lio rush to rey mysterio. The disrespect is astounding. Lio rush spent most of his career unemployed and complaining on twitter than he as worked in a ring.

Furniture disease!! Where his chest is in his drawers!! I am definitely going to use that one at some point.
Whoever thought of Beautiful Bambi and Sweet Stag is a freaking genius!!!
why thank you, thank you... 🦌😊
I want a Jim Cornette mixtape, take my $10 please.
Im starting a band called "Slag and the Heaps" thanks Jim!
A friend once came up with the greatest band name ever.... Johnny & the infected brown-eyes. Hahahaha
An uncle of mine once had a band as a kid called Bonded Lead. He came up with it looking at a pencil
The BEST part is at 1:26:40
Who’s going to the MLW tv taping July 6th? In Chicago, Cicero stadium. Gonna order my ticket tomorrow after work, hopefully I get to meet Corny !!!
The furniture disease lol, his chest is in his drawers lmao!!!!!
i love it when Jim recites our pledge! The Cult of Cornette is my home, and I love the kool-aid it serves
Sami is a total goof. He's trying to build his name off of having an incident with Cornette. Sami is dog shit in the ring and once you've seen his act 1 time then you've seen 98% of his matches he's ever had. He asked for his release from WWE cuz he knew he was on the chopping block and wanted to beat them to it so he could brag that he quit them.
Jim with that music lol I enjoy this part of the show
Love the wildlife updates from Castle Cornette.
Was shouting "Ennio Morricone!!" and then nearly spat out my tea at Brian's "No!" Reply to Jim's question"You don't remember which Charlie's Angel had a top forty hit?" Hahaha.
Great stuff as always guys
Blondie and the Talking Heads. Great choices, Brian.
“Or whatever the fuck...” ::clears throat::
Fuckin gets me EVERYTIME 😂
40:57 Wrestling talk time
It's important to start here because Jim talks about garbage wrestling, which leads into Sami Calihan, which goes back to garbage wrestling. Listen to the whole conversation people.
The thumbnail reminds me of Jak & Daxter-The Precursor Legacy...!!!
Thor Boysen did they Remaster the Trilogy for P4 ?
@@Josh-di3zo don't know! Would be cool though! I liked the first part a lot!!! I was sad that part 2 didn't continue in that style...!
@TH Takeover Thanks for the info! Did you like the first part most, too?
@TH Takeover Yeah, part 2 was really nice, too! I really hope (for PS-5) that my beloved favourite franchise will revived, which is "Legacy of Kain-Blood Omen"! A remake like Capcom did with Resident Evil 2 would be amazing...! But i don't know who actually has the rights to that franchise! Crystal Dynamics and Eidos as publisher had LOK back then. There is probably not much hope!? 😢
@@thorboysen3318 I love Legacy of Kain. Idk about a remake but at least port them on psn or something. Getting the pc ports to work on windows 10 is a pain.
A heel manager shouldnt have babyface names for deer. Id suggest Schmoz and Doublecross
The deers are gonna turn heel later ,its all a work bro
Actually the midnight express wasn't babyface, they were mainly heels. They only turned babyface when they did the Midnight vs Original Midnight/Jim vs Paul E feud.
@The Cortege Venison....mmmmmmm.
who said he was a heel manager?! there's no such thing. just because you don't like him... he's a babyface! he loves animals & good wrestling!
"Here's a song that's so new it's still warm, but, already, it's a golden oldie!" --George Carlin
He can take something as mundane as deer hanging out by his house and get it over.
I want a Outlaws gonna outlaw and mud show's gonna mud show shirt now lol
You’re right Jim, there is no more Pop Tunes or Cats Records in Memphis
Sami discussion at 1:07:22
I have always thought it was ridiculous when people said wrestling was fake. Every movie, Tv Show, or play is also fake but no one derides John Wick or Game Of Thrones for being fake. Only wrestling.
I figured out how fake it was when The Undertaker and Jake The Snake Roberts led The Ultimate Warrior into a snake pit where Warrior got "bit" by Lucifer.
@@funkyweapon1981 When did you find out reality shows were fake?
I absolutely agree 100% on the Shane Strickland thing. Shane is an amazing wrestler who has a great look, great work, pretty good promo, and has the confidence and poise of a future star. He shouldn’t have ever been in these deathmatches with the skewers in his head or the barbed wire or glass with the talent he has. The only exception to the rule was his Lucha Underground persona where him and AR Fox had this brutal war of a match which is built up through their characters and it makes sense they would go that far to hurt one another. Thankfully he’s making his nxt debut in a few weeks and couldn’t be happier for him
This didnt age well
Decent music choices Jim! I got most of them. Great show as always.
Time to get my weekly Experience! Makes my week
Great now I am picturing Hitler as a heel cutting promos lol.
They really should do some animated shorts with this artwork. Lol.
To quote Stewart lee when asked who was the moral arbiter of taste and skill in comedy; "ITS ME!!! IT'S BEEN ME FOR 25 YEARS!!!!!"
Not a fan of the current Hardcore/deathmatch stuff, but Ambrose/Moxley had an extensive run in CZW. And I am a fan of his.
I love some Slag and the Heaps!🤣
Madman Across the Water by Elton John with Mick Ronson on guitar is an absolutely stellar song.
Jim You tell the truth man...
Has he talked about golberg vs undertaker yet? 😂
Another fun fact, the original song that was pitched to sly stallone was the song You’re The Best but he didnt like it and it ended up in he Karate Kid
Hello Jim. Do you remember Dennis Coffey? He wrote the "Enter the Dragon" theme. Great music. Love your show.
(Danny from Toronto.)
Nope, the theme was written by Lalo Schifrin
My Bad. Good lookin out
The entire OST for the movie composed, arranged and orchestrated by Schifrin is gold!
Oh, this should be a good one 😂
Keep us updated on the deer family around your Creek, Jim 👍😎
Ok third time trying to name the baby deer Dennis and bobby
NBA comment was worth this
The theme to "Hawaii 5-O" was a hit for the Ventures; not the Surfaris.
Can you feel the hate tonight?
I love this show
Hello Jim,
Back in the 1980's Adrien Adonis used to carry a briefcase on which it said: "Relax with Trudy".
Do you know what that was about ? I don't believe the fans ever got an explanation on that gimmick and Adrien changed gimmick afterwards.
Relax was from Frankie Says Relax, & Trudy/Trudi was going to be Adrian after he became a total woman, someday
I must say I do like Sami. I enjoy his matches. But he can go a little far
Jim Cornettes embarrassing attempt at throwing a tennis racket was hilarious though. Sami also waiting to see if Jim would do something and Cornette just standing there was funny too.
@@zachreacts5508 i notice how he left that part out. Lol
what should he have done? try to beat him up and ruin the show?
@@MarsofAritia exactly. Sami probably knew he was safe to have 'confronted' Jim during a show broadcast.
I wasn't talking about this one show. I was talking about other things he has done. But then again I did say I liked him
I love listening to Cornett do podcast and I try not to miss one and Sami callihan is one of my favorite wrestlers going today second only to Pentagon jr.
Poplar street in Memphis Just is not the same these days😑
The Experience come for the wildlife updates stay for the wrestling.
The Ecstasy of Gold from the good the bad the ugly! Metallicas show intro since forever
They should call the baby deer Roughhouse and Fargo...
Sami also happens to be very good friends with Joey Ryan so it shouldn't be any surprise whatsoever that he's a trash human being. Love the fact that you covered the situation though Jim.
hahahahahahahhaha youre a fucking loser
@@astynlc3618 so I'm a loser because I don't like toxic trashy wrestlers like Joey and Sami? Take a look in the mirror and you'll see who the loser is.
@Vladamir Jackson thanks for having my back
@Vladamir Jackson HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! you wot faggot? youll have to get off his nuts first
@Vladamir Jackson You're a fucking idiot. Let's meet in Alaska.
What dvd or special is he referencing I'd love to watch it
If you've not seen the wrestlers episode 3 yet I recommend you go and watch it. it was really good. that's the episode jim talks about in this.
Was wondering if Jim had watched any episodes of The Wrestlers, this should be interesting.
he hummed the FUCK out of that tennis racket, i love jim cornette.
Outlaw mud show circuit!! Lmao
I want a Jim Cornette mixtape!!!
OMG Jim should do a karaoke episode..
I was at the czw show in the documentary. Strickland got tore up.
Jim Cornette has introduced me to some great music the latest being Ruby Starr thanks corny
I love me some Jim C. You are 100 percent on the money. Mudshow, hardcore B.S. needs to go the way of the dinosaurs. Warthog Sami is a joke. ART? What? This Crap is one of the reasons why the Wrestling I loved has gone to Shit. Take your Art and shove it where the sun doesn't shine. Jim , keep it up.
hahahahahahahahahahaha have a cry
Agreed 100%. Hardcore matches isn't wrestling. It's just 2 idiots doing their damnest to legitimately hurt each other in an effort to make it look real.
For some reason, those jackasses don't get that we already know that wrestling is predetermined but we still love it anyways.
Fuck hardcore.
@@bahmat hahahahahhahaha! you obviously dont understand wrestling
Astyn Leatherby you obviously don't.
@@bahmat lol its wrestling if you think theres some stupid parameters that limit it you really have no clue what it is - its wrestling...
One of the most embarrassing things as a wrestling fan was when some guys at work thought that these death/outlaw matches were real. They could not believe that a someone was allowing themselves to be piledrived through glass or thrown through barbe wire tables/ropes.
You know...I like to watch "ultra violent" wrestling from time to time, mainly because if they are going to do it, might as well watch stupid people do stupid things to each other. Who doesn't love a GOOD hardcore match. The problem with this shit is...These typically are NOT good hardcore matches. As Jim stated, they don't sell it as a real thing. They sell it as a performance with obvious corporation then take selfies with the fans. Plus it's only good in small amounts. At least I feel, and it is to me, it's only interesting/entertaining in small amounts. More than 2 light tube/barb wire matches on a show, I don't care to see anymore for a while. It doesn't keep interest like good, athletic/struggle like wrestling matches with no obvious corporation
It should have ended when ECW went under. CZW and whatever deathmatch show in the middle of a manure filled pasture needs to go. We now know how damaging those matches are to the performers.
@@funkyweapon1981 Not only damaging to the performers, but to their chances of developing a real gimmick and making good money elsewhere
I love the eagles and that was a good episode
What does Randy Orton think of deathmatches & deathmatch wrestlers?
Randy Orton: STOOPID!!!!
I wonder if there's a recording somewhere of Jerry Lawler and Roy Moore doing a cover of "To all the girls I loved before" by Willie Nelson and Julio Iglesias?..oh, I almost forgot...lol.
Was waiting to listen to this since I saw what sami did. My reaction was ohhh shit. Could clearly see Jim was raging, surprised he managed to restrain himself at the time. I wouldn't...
When I saw it I was like, definitely not a work hahaha goddamn. I hate Sami, and I love Jim...but fuck that was some funny shit.
@@blutheelf2430 Yea immediately knew that wasn't work. My thought was same at the time
He's restrained himself against people who made him fantasize the idea of committing murder. (Jim Herd and Vinnie Ru) So Jimmy is professional enough to handle the moment. Though he will look to somehow safe face with body language such as feigning a swipe with his racket and then throwing a chair that wasn't gonna really hit Sami.
I listened to this last night and when Jim gave his opinion on hardcore wrestling I was laughing so hard I was crying.
I think all this sami crap is doing old Mance Warner a disservice he handled it all like a pro kept the match going was glad he finally got the snake where he was meant to be and put out the finish.Hope Mance can go back to normal wrestling after all the crap MLW have had him doing ,i like Mance he be crazy and deserves better.
This isn't the "crap MLW have him doing." This is what Mance is known for. Guy was a champ in CZW for a reason
You do not get it son he has been used to try and control that asshat Sami who keeps going into business for himself ,total disrespect for the promotion and for his fellow wrestlers in the ring and deserved to get fired.
That is the crap Mance had to do babysit a selfish little ass who thinks he can go into business for himself and ignore the booker when ever he wants.
So i was not talking about his hardcore wrestling i was talking about him working again with wrestlers who respect each other in the ring the way wrestling is meant to be.
Nothing worse than some twat who disrespects the guys they are working with in the ring, Sami was lucky Mance did not decide to go into business for himself and boot the crap out the little shit for real.
Bloomington Indiana and Seymour Indiana are 53 miles apart.
Danny Havoc passed away at age 34. It all caught up to him.
His Wife passed away too, sad situation.
So did their fans get referred to by opponents as thecDisease?
I'm surprised that Shawn Michaels, Braun Strowman and Brock Lesnar haven't shot those deer yet 😐 those "brave hunters"
be a great stable though wouldn't it....add stone cold and you basically have king of the hill.
I know it's a messed up trade but,, ....would you rather have a mix of death match and traditional wich looks\is real , or young bucks gymnastics with trad pro ? Since its never gonna go back to what WE want Jim , I'd take NWA 80s style mixed with mid 90s ajpw with a slight mix of pwg and hardcore ....when called for . What y'all think ????
He maybe talking about where SpinStreet used to be.
Jim did you the episode with Sami and MVP in MLW
Kevin Owens and Sami Zayne on the thumbnail.
Sami "the hardcore doggy" Callihan!!!
It's a bull, for Bullshit I'm guessing.. Hooves kinda gave it away.
The Master is still the Master.
"I don't fukn know it's not my week to watch him" omg 😂🤣🤣😂 corny u amaze me ever dam video
Impact, and AAA have free channels on pluto tv... I dont know if this is a good or bad thing...
All those free shows are from the good days of TNA and are on constant replay haha and most the AAA are from 04 and 05 and replayed as well
Jim and brian, keep up the great work!!!👍
Am I the only one weirded that Cornette mentioned telling the 2 deceased members of ELP lol
Unfortunately is a farmer Juggalo I 100% agree with this man the unfortunate part that I used to be a juggalo it sickens me
1:21:50 legendary stuff... :D
I cant get into them way to crazy hardcore matches...smh
Like them shows that are full hardcore the whole show, but i like chair shots, table spots that's ok but not the whole show. Its just over kill.
1:02:26 This cracked me the fuck up. Problems with drugs and alcohol? Turn to extreme violence where someone might die!
I hope Sammy Calahan comes back to MLW.
Love these guys. But I thought I should point out brother Louie is originally and written by hot chocolate. It’s a much better version than the stories cover. But a great song never the less. Both versions are easily available on TH-cam if anyone is interested.
I don’t think Jim heard the interview segment
He’s gonna love when he hears that
Cleaning out your closest? That's Eminem.
