🤣 Look at Jim's Elbow Drop, Macho Man would be proud!
Looks better than Punk's. Ha.
Eaton too… him and savage used to try and do each others shit…Pepperidge Farms remembers..
What the fuck are you on about. Cornette says he couldn't do it right and here you are disregard the actually words from the guy
Every time Bill Watts would slug either Cornette or Eddie Gilbert in Mid South, they would go FLYING like the villains on Batman! I thought it was the most hillarious thing, and I would say to myself, "Man, Watts hits really hard!"🤣🤣🤣🤣
Heenen really made it look like he was legit getting hurt yet made it look comical at the same time. He had it down to an art form. Although, I don't doubt when he was in there with Warrior, Warrior actually injured him. I really miss managers.
Hellwig broke his neck and pretty much ended his ability to take bumps in the ring and at ringside with his recklessness and total incompetence as a wrestler. He nearly killed Bruce Prichard too in the final "Brother Love Show" segment.
The asshole could do all of three moves - and none of them well or safe. Especially not his crappy clotheslines. And the absolutely vile things he said about Bobby Heenan, when he had cancer, are unforgivable.
Herman was trained, or at least what passed for training at the time.
Heenan actually had in-ring experience, though. He was a semi-regular wrestler, at least in his early years before he was even in the WWF. Though, now that I looked at his article on Wikipedia, he said he was never trained but it came naturally to him.
Why is it the only once with warrior
A guy who never heard anyone
The Rocks bump after being Stone Cold stunnered lol
great artwork again by Travis!
This is the most surprising thing I've heard him say. I always assumed that he had at least cursory training on how to take bumps for safety's sake.
A self taught performer in the ring, sounds familiar to modern wrestling.
@@vancewoodruff6472 big difference between a manager taking the occasional bump without training and an actual wrestler doing it.
Lmfao
@@vancewoodruff6472 I heard that Bobby Heenan (who was actually a semi-regular wrestler in his earlier years) said he never got training but it came naturally to him.
@@chrisjamesr77 that’s great, but Cornette flips when modern wrestlers claim to be self taught. It’s the wheel that doesn’t stop turning.
Heenan put himself at risk repeatedly and spectacularly. I remember him taking huge bumps all thru AWA and no matter how many times you see it, that mid-air yank with a belt around his neck from Patera still curls your toes.
Heenan was a wrestler back in the day so he was tougher then most thought!
I'll never forget Heenan being chased out of the ring by Jake Roberts DIVING OVER THE TOP ROPE back in 1988.
One could make the argument that Jim got a little too much air during the scaffold match where the Big Bossman let him drop.
*Big Bubba Rogers
He fell so fast!
No one could have caught JC falling from that height. Anyone with a cursory knowledge of physics could have figured out that someone of Jim's weight falling from that height would pick up too much velocity for someone, even the size and strength of Ray Traylor, to catch him without both guys being seriously hurt.
@@KayFabe87 Cool story lady. Anyone with a cursory knowledge of humor would know that was a joke. Moving on.
Heenan was amazing. He was great in the ring and on the microphone. I miss his shenanigans.
Speaking of injuries, I know Flair does a offset bump due to his back. One I question is AJ Styles taking a back drop. He gets so much height and split second rotation, it is just insane. For a guy who supposedly has a bad back, you'd never know it.
Then again, it probably hurts like hell anyway.
Jimmy Hart is one of the nicest people I've ever met. Awesome guy.
Agreed. He was so nice when I met him.
Jimmy Hart is one of the nicest people to everyone who's ever met him. Him and Mick Foley! I feel like with their powers combined, they could achieve world peace! 😂
Joel Gertner, took the best manager bumps, He used to take chairshots unprotected!
Ooooof! Got knocked off the front page of “The Observer”. Cornette savage af as always (and I love it)!!
Still waiting for that flaming table bump Jim 😂👍
Corny is NOT that dadgum dumb🤯
What the fuck are you talking about
Also hey Jim
Bret Hart's front turnbuckle bump evolved because his back was killing him one night and he just couldn't abide taking another one on his spine, if I recall right.
Not only doesn't make a lot of sense(cents), but it made a ton of money too!😅
Snuka murdering his girlfriend got more stars than Undertaker Shawn Michaels
Captain Lou took some awesome bumps also
True, but he had been a wrestler for years, as had Heenan.
I’m willing to bet that Jim Cornette has still ultimately taken more ‘Bumps’ than Paul Heyman ….. 👀
@Bobby Sutherland they call that a "new jack bump" 👍🏼😂😜
Corny was a manager. No reason to look like he knew how to wrestle, some current “wrestlers” can learn something.
I think Jimmy Hart is kinda underrated a little. I dunno, I never really see him mentioned often when people talk about the "best managers ever" or something like that, but he was definitely great at being a heel, like you always wanted to see someone get their hands on him, lol. And of course, there's the fact he composed a lot of iconic theme songs for wrestlers. If you were watching wrestling in the 80s and 90s, you were probably hearing songs that he wrote all the time...just to name one, HBK's "Sexy Boy"
I only ever really saw Hart in the WWF, but I think there it was more who he was paired with. There definitely seemed to be a "Manager Pecking Order" in the WWF - if you were a potential main eventer, or consistent upper midcarder, it would be Heenan,. Solid midcarders usually ended up with Hart or Slick, with Harvey Whippleman at the bottom of the barrel (unless they wanted to do a "huge monster and pipsqueak manager" visual as with Sid). Hart was great at winding up the crowd and his contribution to the theme music speaks for itself, but he seemed to thrive more as a ringside manager. I don't think his interjections into "client" promos were anywhere close to Heenan's level.
If your a cult of cornette true member, you’ve already heard these stories and they never get old like a boring father in law or uncle etc
This is where Jim is at his best.
why is Jimmy Heart getting really hurt so funny to me
Wait so Eddie Gilbert got in a car accident the same night Snuka murdered his gf? Even Vince had to outshine the others in tragedy…… damn Vince.
Pitching and catching, giving and receiving...
got jim in jimmy harts gear 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
“Harder’n a fuckin frying pan” made me laugh out loud. Jim is so great
It's true, Jimmy Hart has 18 years over Cornette... I would have said 7 or 8 years at most. Wow!
Jimmy has had the same look for 40 years
Missing link took weird bumps too
Bryan knows everything that there is to know about wrestling all era's! That's a true fan
He does know a lot, but he does lack a lot of knowledge about the current era.
Oh give it a rest! He's always interrupting never stfus just f him man. Jim's show
I'm right handed but I shot and basketball and throw a football or baseball with my left. Can't do it with my right
Jim when talking about the young bucks" the indy darling self taught garbage wrestling" Fan to Jim- who taught you? " I taught myself" lmao
"The madness is running wild" - Macho Man
Nikolai Volkoff never took a proper bump
Hypothetically if someone had a decent financial backer and they did wrestling your way would it survive?
No
Jimmy Hart started when he was 40 must mean HOLY SHIT Jimmy Hart is 80.
35
Look at Macho Man Jim Cornette in the thumbnail lol
seeing the artwork makes me wonder if fans got a MEX vs Hart Foundation feud how it would have gone. Would it have burned the arenas down like MEX vs R&RX and HF vs BB wars went? But the art also has me wondering how Corny & Jimmy Hart would have interacted, similar to Corny & the Jim Jones of pro wrestling Dangerously, better or worse? I do think if fans got this feud, with Vince's input, as much as I hate him, I'm betting the feud blowoff wouldn't have been the clusterfuck the 6-Man loser leaves NWA was.
Lmao shin splints
Love Corny’s bumps lol
I still laugh my ass off when Cornette fell from that scaffolding and he has that painful outcry lmao!
Yup, its like he slipped on something lmao.
Yup like one of Bobby Eaton's (rip) bananas 🥴
At a given time 14 days who has been the most over wrestler of all time I would throw out stone cold. I'm interested in finding out.
What's with Brian going out of his way to howl with laughter 10 times a show these days?
He's high as fuck
Mans on the good good
How dare he have fun... Podcasts are supposed to be dire and make you want to kill yourself!
Top shelf doobage
Jim blew both his knees out in scaffold match and never blamed Dusty the Booker or Ray Traylor for not catching him. He just took it on the chin for the business he loves.
Imagine if Bret Hart had this happen to him ...
1st
Crikey, I might be second
Lame-O's
@@Snakeman612
If you want to see it that way. I am just genuinely surprised I was possibly second. It's a small joy, I know. But is it more petty than trying to rob someone of such a small, trivial and inconsequential pleasure? 😜
82th
@@duncandownham4726 Yes
Sorry Jim, I love listening to you but your bumps were too comedic for me lol . Just always seemed off to me , like he was trying too hard to get a reaction .
That's the point. He's a manager he's not trying to take the same type of bumps as a wrestler. lol
@@maxxdahl6062 I know, what I'm trying to say is it's too Benny hill. Cant really explain, but I understand what I mean lol.
Simple explanantion for this: Jim always took "arena bumps" that were easily visible and looked good from several rows back. He got all his training on the road at house shows. It can be a bit too much sometimes when it's shot from a few feet away with a camera at ringside or even with the camera man standing on the apron. Bumps that look good on the hard camera don't necessarily always look good on the ringside cameras either. And vice versa.
It's like theatrical acting and screen acting. When you watch old movies from the 50s or 60s you can often tell who on screen had a long theatre career before they started getting into movies. The gestures are a bit to big, the facial expressions a bit too dramatic, and they project their voices too much for the rooms they're in. They were trained to convey what is going on in the scene to the back rows of a theatre, not to a camera that's 5 ft away.
@@henrygvidonas9573 I get you , but its just my opinion no biggie lol. I love his promos , but not fan of the rackets and shiny suits and rolling around like a baby in the ring lol . It's funny Jim always called the WWF in the 80s cartoony ,but he would have fit in perfectly. Promo wise though,nobody is touching Jim , still amazed at how he can go and go and go.
I’m sorry that you blew your knees out because you’re a mark who doesn’t know how to take a bump, lol
Vince Russo, I’m sorry that was a good burn by Vinny Ru
Cornette has the absolute worse bumps I've seen in wrestling
I love how the tolerant Jim Cornette is always crapping on the strong black queen Sapphire, just always showing his true racist nature, even Jerome Young said Jim was racist the hood segments were all Jim's idea because he thought that's how all black people talked and lived
Jim is a typical democrat.
Don't blame heenam for your terrible bumps which is why it's never been seen again
