Thats what happen when there isn't anyone brave enough to say "no, Vince that's a stupid idea"
Vince McMahon doing stupid ideas even before 87% of his roster were born
He who has the gold rules. Vince is the ultimate winner of 'Wrestling Tyvoon', unfortunately he had to kill that which he loved in order to do it.
I'll always remember David Letterman (who was a fan) talking about the WWF talk show to a guest. "You've got to see it. It's guys with no necks sitting around talking."
Jake's answering machine said "You tried to dial 21? Well I got 22! You wanna leave a message? I got two of those too."
*YOU GOT ACES AND EIGHTS?!*
Black Saturday the quickly failed project that Vince blames the failure of on the execs and their "political games" rather than the fact that that part of America hated his product
Another stellar thumbnail from the Cornette Drive-Thru 🤣
What's your favorite part about it?
I was a young kid when this happened and I can tell you, A LOT of people were pissed! At first some of us thought maybe it was a cross-promotional thing like what we’ve seen with ROH/Impact. When we realized later on that it was a buyout, it was a shock moment!
For you younger, non-territories folks who can’t understand the flack behind this move: Imagine a “Black Friday” nowadays with WWE fans tuning in to see Smackdown, only to see “AEW Smackdown” on instead….😳
I'll always remember how disappointed I was that day to turn on WTBS expecting to see Gordon Solie and World Championship Wrestling and instead seeing Vince McMahon.
Same here!
Same here. I quit watching at that time slot so long Crockett had been on for awhile and while surfing channels found that awful crap was gone. Unfortunately Crockett gave vince the ammo to kill him off.
Always entertaining from Cornette. Looking forward to the whole episode.
Jim and brian, keep up the great work!!!👍
Vince Mcmahon destroyed wrestling
Well mah considering how terrible it was before 85
@@lightyagami8645 If it was terrible people wouldn't literally try to murder the heels and worship the babyfaces like rock stars.
I would say wrestling is a product of its time and kinda reflects society, and that's why wrestling is dead.
TNT Tuesday Night Talking
Steve Huff that's CNN political coverage in a nutshell.
Mick Foley used that New York, New York joke to get heat when he left ECW. As Cactus Jack, he danced in the ring to the song. The S'marks knew he was leaving for WWF after that night. They boo'ed him initially, but later they clapped for him as he left the arena while fans held "Good luck!" and "We'll miss you!" type signs.
I remember when that happened. I was so disappointed when i turned in.
Always the best
In one of the worst moves a UHF station ever perpetrated on a loyal Mid South Wrestling audience (myself included!) they put GLOW in a time slot IMMEDIATELY following Mid South Wrestling at 6pm! It's almost as if channel 34 insulted their viewership by saying: "Its all fake---those dummies watching Mid South won't know the difference." So in other words--you have the most legit wrestling in the country, being followed by the biggest bunch of phoney baloney
Awesome comment. Only thing good about it was the good looking whoas.
Wonder what his thoughts were when he learned that The Brisco's had sold WCW to Vince on April 9, 1984.
I’m gonna go out on a limb and guess it was: “THOSE FUCKING BRISCOES!”
@@DeeEllEff After the sale, they were scheduled to face The Road Warriors in Canton, OH. Before the match, Animal told them that they were offered a huge sum of money to hurt them, but "we don't do business that way." Also, Paul Jones told them that he had heard that someone had been hired to shoot them.
according to gerry ole was taking all the money and not cutting then in on the profit and the briscos hate him as most people did so they did it to fuck him over and get a huge profit they got paid for like 10 years on that deal
@@revrobbins693 Jack said that he faced Ole one night while fighting a stomach virus. He told Ole to go easy on him, but Ole hit him anyway, almost making him throw up, then laughed about it afterwards. Ole even tried to get him to cut his wrist and mix his blood with his. Jack said, "Hell no. I ain't bonding with no dumb f'ing Pollack."
First off - WWF Tuesday Night Titans was awesome. So was Prime Time. It gave us a chance to see wrestlers away from the ring and showcased some of their personal interests. Fun stuff. Black Sunday was a slap in the face of any real die hard NWA fan. It was an attempt by Vince to become more global, but it came too early. The death of the territories was mainly due to them being run by old guys who did NOT adapt with the times. By the time they tried to do something right - Super Clash's - it was too late. I was furious when GCW was taken off the air and celebrated like crazy when NWA tv returned
The NWA wasn't afraid to get goofy. Remember Dusty's gorilla? When Cornette got a cake in his face? How about Miss Atlanta Lively?
or Ricky Morton thinking it was a good idea to demonstrate how a straight jacket worked with the midnight express around in mid south. Or the Either in midsouth or jyd getting knocked out and tared and featherd.
The cartoony complaint is just Jim being pissy. I liked both, but sometimes the NWA crowd chants bugged me. Way to go, someone, way to go! It was like the WWE crowd when they frequently said what?
@@mikebowermaster4250 I want to know if it was so cartoonish and bad. And Hogan was so awful. how did they put everyone out of business. Somebody like it.
Hulk wasn't any worse that a lot of people that were revere. Bruiser Brody had no science, yet no one said anything about that. They all did comedy bits. Pro sports figures have had cartoons, the WWF one was no worse.
And those specific instances those four things the face is dead to get over on the heels with the exception of Ricky Morton or he thought he was just demonstrating how a straight jacket works completely unbeknownst to him that he was going to be at attacked by the Midnight Express that's not comedy
Its a shame this was not aired on April 1st...
Throat clear.......throat clear.......throat clear....🤪
heht-UUUNHHN...
Showing in Little Rock, Ar
I think IIRC Jim Barnette had to go to Australia after a conflict over missing funds on a prior promotion. He helped destroy wrestling, IMO. But the irony is that two of the greatest technicians in the history of wrestling helped to become a cartoon show.
GLOW, was owned by Sylvester Stallone Mom.
But they say he was poor
Is there any hope for a serious wrestling promotion? I mean something like wrestling in the 50's or 60's, or the NWA or AWA in the 80's. Cartoon wrestling is ruining the business.
Anything pre-87 or so pro wrestling is never coming back. It's much too slow for today's fast-paced craving viewer. And nobody is going to sit through hour-long shows full of jobber matches. That's what has changed. NJPW doesn't do a lot of cartoon wrestling, though they have a few comedy characters. AEW doesn't really have comedy gimmicks. They might have some gimmicks that are silly (hello, dinosaur), but they haven't done a comedy match yet. And this is coming from someone who watched pro wrestling since fall 1979.
@@osaji922 enlighten me about these "high standards"
@@osaji922 I'm only referring to anything that is actually on TV. If you aren't on TV, I don't really care, which is a shame because the little bit I saw before Bein got dropped by DirecTV was interesting. AEW being the exception just because of the money involved and they already have a deal in place.
Scott Smart AEW has had a comedy match on each show they’ve done. Maybe they weren’t MEANT to be comedy matches, but they were.
MLW is actually pretty legitimate. I don't approve of everyone on their roster but that's because of my personal high standards. Cornette being affiliated with it pretty much says it all.
Jim Barnett's role in it suggests a post-presidential political maneuver by staunch Georgia Championship Wrestling fan Jimmy Carter, who Barnett served at the federal level. Ric Flair's Atlanta wrestling hangout The Omni even began the site of the 1988 Democratic National Convention.
carter was a miserable failure and years removed from office before Flair had a long run as Champ. His first run was short, and he admitted he did not really know his purpose at that time.
@@stealthbomber2127 Actually, Carter was only less than a year out of office when Flair won the belt. He also still had an active ally in Jim Barnett. You had the Brisco Brothers and Roddy Piper work for JCP and Georgia Championship Wrestling at similar points in time. The McMahons were grade-A fools not to dig into Barnett's background better when he was a major player in the Black Saturday sale. Carter, who made Barnett an NEA member, even responded to Chappaquiddick Ted Kennedy's challenge to him by saying "If Kennedy runs, I'll whip his ass." That is like a genesis of Austin 3:16
@@minewheaties5029 Carter was a tremendous failure as a president. I worked for a company years ago that sent me to Albany, Georgia for work. He was from nearby plains. The people there said he was a disgrace as a president. And when we sat in the gas ration lines everyone else at the time knew it.
Jake must of been roasting the shit out the locker room and funny as hell when he was on a coke binge that answering machine joke is A+ if he kept the tapes?!!?!.. shit Name your Price Roberts
And for the record Tuesday night Titans was the drizzling f****** schitts
I liked it much better when they came out with Prime Time Wrestling.
@@mikebowermaster4250 especially with Gorilla droning on that this match could be a main event in any arena in the country except for the card that it was currently on
WWF back in the 80's changed and fans tend to forget that WWF in the 1960's and 70's was a lot different and like Georgia Championship wrestling when Vince SR was in charge. all they fuss about is WWE's 80's being silly and stupid and seem to think WWF was always like that since the 1960's and they were not.
Everybody talk shit about WWF but somehow they all end up working for Vince.... even Jim 😅
Is it ok now to talk shi* to Vince since he's out of the WWE?
Idk. If Jim realizes. If it wasn't for Vince adding the entertainment aspect to wrestling. It would of died off in the early 90s. With the rise of mma and UFC. People seen what real fighting looked like. So without all that goofy shit and entertainment aspect Vince added. Nobody would give a shit about 2 guys fake fighting.
@bob lawango maybe youre right but not necesserly because it was just about greed vince wanted to own everything he still got rid of wcw any wAy in 2001 and ecw but looked at the wwe now stings whos even watching it vince sr i dont know how good he was maybe not that great either or maybe hes ok but vince sr would never invated other peoples propoty in they run them out of business he did it to ecw ecw in the90s the attitude era ecw was in tnn then vince when he own wwf monday night raw in usa he left and pay alot of money in when to tnn then later ecw in 2001 when out of business
@@carlosvelarde7355 He's no where near right. Wrestling was on tv since the 50's, drawing very good, consistent money. Now we only have one company on a business that's on it's ass.
Yeah I remember when wrestling was really down back in the day because Muhammad Ali was such a colorful boxer yeah me neither
I liked TNT, I enjoyed it and thought it was interesting to see all the stuff they'd put on. Of course, I was 12 years old or so at the time so there's that. Lol
Black Saturday never really happened god dammit!!!!
How many of you still get the 'but it isn't real?'-response when revealing your wrestling fandom to people?
I usually reference Spiderman.
My friends read comics.
I watched wrestling.
To me it was the same thing. Only I could meet the superheroes I idolized as a kid.
What's your deal with video games man?
Them by themselves, nothing. They embody today's generation of play wrestlers. You look at guys from the eighties and they all look like they could kick your ass. Then you got 180 pound jelly janella playing Fortnite and he couldnt intimidate my sister. I'd rather fight 5 of these indie punks by myself than try to take on Bad news Brown in his prime by himself
I know right. I'm 38 years old and still enjoy playing Nintendo. I so there you go. and there is no one on earth will stop that.
Jeez lol
Joey doesn't play Fortnite tho lol
@@KHayes666 all the guys in the 80's were intimidating? Sorry but no def not.
Cognitive Function 😀.Did Vince ever have any?
I have just five words for Vince: “Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV.” Thank you all & goodnight!
Wreck everyone
Now the one thing i disagree with jim cornette i disagree is glow wrestling gloq wrestling i might see some funny charracters but i actually saw some good wrestling better then the wwe today but that my opinion
what black Saturday is should prob be explained
It is racism.
TNT wasn;t that bad, it was actually pretty entertaining. Sure as hell better than any of the crap that is on now.
It was the beginnings of the crap you see now.
I totatly agree that vince was guffy and i would not want him to spread because look how he endup taking everything and now nwawcw and ecw are nolobger in business and the wwe in 2019and 2020 now sucks
Cornette, drop the anti-video game angle. It's silly and petty. You probably think it makes you look edgy and cool, but it really just makes you look like an out of touch boomer. Video games are not something for just children. Many adults, some over 50, play video games regularly. They are a part of our culture and there's no reason to hate on them like you do. Just because you don't understand it doesn't make it bad.
If it was up to Jim Cornette wrestling would still be in dark smokey arenas with guys wrestling till their 60's & never becoming global stars, just being hometown hero's..
They'd have more guys making good money
as opposed to now with 10 people stuffing a bingo hall and the guys paid a couple of hot dogs?
Cornette helped train Cena, Orton and Batista. You're a dumb fuck. Oh, and wrestling was big business before Vince McMahon Jr. came along. You're a dumb fuck.
Me too
@@MattSingh1 & your a " it's still real to me man" face ass mark..lol😂
The NWA was amateurish.
The fuck u babbling about
It was a low budget dumpster fire.
@@mikebowermaster4250 you don't know shit
You are an idiot.
@@mikebowermaster4250 least I'm not dumbfuck talking out my ass
For a long time I wasnt amused with jim cornette and now as I'm older I have realized he is the FUNNIEST and most entertaining dude in the buisness.
Except he is not in the business
I think he missed his calling---he and Bruce Prichard were meant to be comedians!
He's an idiot leftist who wants your guns taken away.
him and Jesse Ventura were the funniest guys on and off the air that excelled in their roles.
Facts his timing is just made for stand up...
It was Pro Wrestling vs. Sports Entertainment and unfortunately Pro Wrestling lost.
Very true summary. In the 1980s, It was JCP (Pro Wrestling) vs WWF (Sports Entertainment) and the wrong side won. It was the same case in the 1990s. That was WCW (Pro Wrestling) vs WWF (Sports Entertainment) and the wrong side won. Now, so many old-school Pro Wrestling fans like me are hoping AEW can become that major Pro Wrestling Company that we haven't had in such a very long time.
@@stephenhanft1226 which is true! WCW felt like a competition! Even though I already knew what pro wrestling was or is now but the athleticism made it feel like a competition knowing as African American most of us like sports and to have a sporty feel made it fun to watch (*I know it's stereotyping but it's true*) while Up there in New York it felt just like a Sitcom with Pro Wrestlers in it.. Don't get me wrong New York had some things and Wrestlers (Macho Man Randy Savage and The Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase I actually liked out of New York) but I can't front and lie and say it was better cause it wasn't.. Atlanta was always better in every aspect and even Jim Ross admitted that Atlanta was better.. *You can have a great product but your management must be in place to keep things running smoothly cause if it's not then your company will go out of business if management and budgets isn't in order.. That's a fact*
And now we know that AEW is cartoon goofy shit that makes WWE look like a legitimate sport in comparison.
@@stephenhanft1226 YEP
@@stephenhanft1226 WCW in its twilight years were producing "sports entertainment". Remember, Vince Russo was the booker.
"Vince was already getting goofy. " 😂
Brian Cromartie I’m crying 😭😭😭😂😂
Vince is one goofy ass SOB.
When he bought WWWF in 81 it was a more traditional program and slowly he began implementing these ideas of silly gimmicks and then it balooned into cartoonish level! Vince for some reason thought stupid gimmicks was the future of wrestling!
@@TheRpf1977Was he wrong? His “goofy wrestling” was able to kill all the NWA territories so he must have been doing something right
@@juansanchez209 Yeah he was. Lying, backstabbing, and double-crossing the promoters his dad had trusted and cooperated with for decades.
Living in New Jersey we already had about 10 hours of WWF wrestling on TV. Georgia Championship Wrestling was my all time favorite wrestling program. Everyone from my family to my friends new not to bother me from 6:05 to 8:05 every Saturday. That night when I turned on TBS and saw the WWF and Vince McMahon it was like the earth stood still. I was inconsolably devastated. If I new where to find McMahon I would still be in prison. That's what Black Saturday was like. And despite how things turned out wrestling was never the same again. Now it's 36 years later and Vince McMahon has finished the job and completely destroyed the sport. The idiotic fool destroyed the territories, in turn destroying his farm system, hence cutting his own throat. The WWF always stole established stars from elsewhere. They wouldn't know how to discover or train a wrestler if they're existence depended on it. So the garbage you have today is the direct result of Vince McMahon's non existent wrestling knowledge. Both Vince Sr. And Jr. might be good promoters but they both new absolutely nothing about how to create a pro wrestler. And that's why the sport is dead, buried, and will never return. Simply because those that are now left in charge of pro wrestling know nothing about it and never did to begin with.
Vincent James to me was a fair promoter. He respected the others. He was even on the NWA Board that decided who would wear the belt. I've heard that he was the one who convinced the others to let Flair win the belt in 1981.
I totally agree. They paint the narrative like Vince McMahon is such a genius, especially at creating Stars.
When he was at his peak, in the 80s, all of those wrestlers, where somebody else's creation.
After that Hulkamania 80s era ended.
You saw what the WWF created, dentists, plumbers, hockey players.
Had no clue what to do.
Those were the Dark Ages, until the late 90s.
Only thing that saved the "new generation", was those real to Life characters.
Shawn Michaels, Bret Hart, you didn't have to create those characters, they were true to life.
@@C-Lyfe85 Yes see you get it. Even the WWE so called new generation of stars was never Vince's creation. The Rock was trained by his dad Rocky Johnson and started in Memphis, Kurt Angle was trained and started in Memphis, Triple H got his training and started in WCW, Sean Michaels was trained by Jose Lothario and started in the AWA, and Steve Austin was trained by Chris Adams and started in Dallas. Even guys like Brock Lesnar, John Cena, Batista and others were discovered and trained by Jim Cornette and Danny Davis in Ohio Championship Wrestling. Now once everyone who new anything about pro wrestling is either dead or retired and it's completely up to Vince McMahon Jr. you see the results. Pro wrestling is dead and buried. Stephanie McMahon is a complete fraud along with her daddy. Finally it's up to the McMahon's to show what THEY can do and the results are disgraceful and embarrassing. But hey anyone who new anything about good professional wrestling from the 1970s and early 80s saw this coming a long time ago. It's no surprise at all. The McMahon's both Sr. and Jr. have been users going all the way back to Bruno. The only difference was that Sr. was smart enough to realized what he was and new he needed others with wrestling knowledge to succeed. Vince Jr. on the hand thought he new it all when in fact he new nothing. And as time went on and he destroyed who he needed he has exposed himself to be the fraud he has always been.
@@donwilcox728
I wouldmake a point that the powers-that-be gave McMahon the money, and influence. To take over the business. They hated pro wrestling and they wanted it to be one contained entity.
They tried to monopolize the business in the 80s and didn't accomplish their goals till the early 2000s.
@@C-Lyfe85 I know--By 1992, they turned into that Sesame Street skit--"Who are the people in your neighborhood!!. You wondered what occupational employee was going to become a wrestler next! (even if they spent their entire lives as a wrestler before coming to the WWF as another way to insult the audience!)
Vince Russo, Kevin Dunn, Jim Herd, and Dixie Carter disliked this video 😈
And Johnny Ass, I mean Ace.
Don’t forget Jelly Janella!
The dick spot guy is next.
Along with Eric Bishoff and Ed Farrera
And Dave Meltzer and Bruce pritchard
Black Saturday was the worst Saturday in professional wrestling history! I was thoroughly disgusted with what I was witnessing!
I knew it meant long term bad things were coming.
TNT was a clever idea and just a good promotional tool. If you didn’t take it too seriously and just saw it as a way for Vince to get his characters and gimmicks over with a audience that might not be aware of who anyone was.. it was clever.
I saw it once and thought it was a bad parody of the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson! He even had a WWF band that had the WWF logo on all their instruments! A WWF BAND!! But Vince was a poor excuse for Johnny Carson and Lord Alfred Hayes was a bad Ed McMahon.
Look at some of the talent vince picked up.. the south saved WWF ass..
Several things came together to destroy the territories.
1) Vince McMahon
He wanted them dead, and he got his wish.
2) cable TV
Territory wrestling depended on the local promotion having the monopoly on local TV. He could tailor his promotion to local tastes, but there was no competition.
3) ECW
“We broke all the rules, then we realized why they had rules.”
Simple things like protecting your finish.
4) UFC
In the NWA days, the fans had seen what was presented and bought it as real. With UFC, the fans could now see what really real looks like. See also: territory wrestling worked when there was no local competition.
5) Vince Russo.
His Jerry Springer booking was the nail in the coffin for two of WWE’s competitors, WCW and TNA.
6) Eric Bishoff
Not for the usual reasons, but why would you sign a contract to give creative control to the boys?
Wherever The Fuck is the place to be. Everyone should go there at least once.
Kind of ironic how the man who bought everything , his creation is now devouring itself. Wrestling ratings are low and the product is stale
"I'M GOING TO KILL MY CREATION!"

Your an idiot
JYD got that Good Humor money
WWF Ice Cream bars
Are you being serious? When he got to WWE, Junk Yard Dog had ice cream treats?!? 🤣
When JYD was working for Bill Watts, he was booked as a main eventer, he goes to work for Vince,& he was booked as the #2 or #3 babyface in the company.
Okay TNT was amazing. That question is ludicrous!
I think when Roddy Piper hosted TNT and had the segment with JYD and Piper with the Sausage behind the counter, then Captain Lou making pasta..... was one the funniest things ever. But I respect Jim's opinion here and it's given me some perspective. Especially because I hate Vince with a passion now.
That looks like Shemp Howard after a faceburger.
Awesome Shoot Today Jim!!😎🐐🐐
Jim Dogs Glow but those girls were trained by Mondo Guerrero. Yeah the skits and everything else was hokey but those girls could wrestle their asses off. Any one of them could have gone to The NWA AWA WWF Japan anywhere and not lose a step.
Mondo trained The Glow Girls ?????
@arthur prior i am with you on this one i watch glow when i was verylittle i am in 80s baby and i tell you those ladys of glow could wrestle their asses of alot when they wrestle they look like they could kick theshit out of men or kick the shit out of me
@arthur priorone more thing arthur prior just like you said and i agree thhey work their asses of and could gone to nwa japan or this other pronotions also another female wrestler that i like like madussa and sentational sherri could had gone to glow that goes to show you the sexim their is it was only good in the 80s till 89 or 90 but it should had benn godd in the 90s and eve today but if sentational sherri or madussa or luna vachoon would gone to glow boy what in impact eould been for womes wrestling and think if it eould last inthe 90s and made it big and chyna would had gone their
@vahoostuffit didnt matter who train the glow girls what matter is that they work their asses of and were good female wrestlers and jim cornette this is the one thing i disagree with him i agree with hin on acouple things but others i dont this is one of them the faxt that he was traine by mando guerrero it dm
It was agood thing that theglow girls was traine by mando guerrero he was a legend being from the guerrero familys so was fritsvonerich from the vonnerich family and so was stuhart from the hart family what matter was isthey work their asses of and still better then wrestling today and could it last
Agree with a lot of stuff Jim says. But I liked Tuesday night Titans. That's where I first saw Greg The Hammer Valentine. He's getting massage. Good Times
When I saw vince get on 2020 and say "i'm not going to insult their intelligence", speaking of the fans. Then proceeds to get a tough athletic guy like Terry Taylor to go into the ring and act like a damn chicken it confirmed his character and I knew the wrestling I loved growing up was in the crosshairs.
me being a kid who loved wrestling in that era didn't see black saturday cuz in '83 we literally moved half mile up the road technically in a different town so we had a different cable provider that didnt carry TBS station which aired Georgia Championship Wrestling. so i never got to see it regularly like before. but that would of been so odd seeing Vince come on instead of Gordon Solie. as much as Vince was a great promoter and business man he was also a pretentious greedy asshole. he definitely nearly killed the business with his greedy infantile tactics.
Pretty much the whole roster was on Wrestle mania 1
Who needs Nostradamus when we have Corny. He tried telling everyone, and we wouldn’t listen.
I remember my deep disappointment when I saw this.
I love how GCW/NWA/WCW kept as an competition while WWF/WWE had it as entertainment and goofy ass characters.. Don't get me wrong some of the stuff New York was doing was alright but some of the other stuff was like what hell man? I like When Jim Cornette with to New York and worked their and Kevin Dunn and Vince Russo tried to rib you having Vince saying lines like (You can take that 1980s with you) just paraphrasing here but you turned that into a positive cause Jim started to do work shoot promos on The Wrestling business at the time and it got over with both New York and Atlanta..
Somehow jim will blame trump.... smfh
You MAGA people blame Obama for everything wrong in this country!!

Man I live Jim Cornett. he is the shit.
First view? Nice.
Living in Portland and watching Portland wrestling. I never heard of Black Saturday.
Same here, I'm British and I was watching old British Wrestling on World Of Sport. I didn't know who Hulk Hogan was until ITV started showing WWF specials in early '87. I didn't know who Ric Flair was until I bought my first ever Pro Wrestling Illustrated in 1988 (May issue with Andre on the cover and Flair in the press conference).
