Because all they've ever known was the WWE style.

That's like being ashamed to be called a "welder", and you instead change it to "metal with heat manipulator"!😂

Thank you

Corny is our antihero

MJF. All other wrestlers i follow are retired or passed away.

or Babyace, depending

@@ralphlowrey Remember when JBL got fired from CNN because of his Nazi salutes in Germany to get heat from the audience. Al Snow said one time that wrestling is a mirror of society and yea today, people would be screaming for a ban if a heel would be saying racist remarks.

MJF gets folks trying to jump the rails a good few times

That was a fantastic line.

I LOVE that line!!!

Roman Reigns called himself a performance fighter last week.

that would have been some big slaps coming lol

Harley Race would have cold-cocked everyone in sight up.

OPEN HAND SLAP

Harley Race put on fake fights for a living how the fuck is he not a performance artist dummy.

They certainly make Corny cry. Does that count?

Eddie Guerrero winning the WWE title. Chris Benoit winning the world title. The image of the referee handing him the title, but he’s on his knees and just crying is the image of the century, and Eddie Guerrero embracing Chris after the title win was amazing. That’s what I believe Jim is talking about. I mean anyone can win a title and it change hands, but it’s an art to put on the type of match against Triple H and Shawn Michaels as well as Brock Lesnar, respectively

Why I bet one time or another you paid real money 4 chicken fingers and we all know they don't have any so those are fake too LOL

Or Monopoly money

They do get paid in non existent money 😂

Sad? Damn shame 💯

right

fmdof WWE is now the serious promotion

@Elreypachuco sometimes it is a real contest

Agreed!

Fuck u christopher

Christopher Sanchez build that wall

Trump is the ultimate snowflake if you don’t see that you are blind or a Nazi.

@Apharmd Battler Ha, how wrong you were, son

@@BeeRawb Yes. They knew. There's even an old poll out of a North Carolina newspaper that backs this up in the early 80s where 97% of people said they thought wrestling was fake and this is in the middle of the super kayfabed era of southern wrestling. People just reacted to the shows differently because there was more suspension of disbelief and it was easier to get sucked into what the talent were selling. As a kid I had a teacher who was in her 50's and mocked a kid for being a big wrestling fan because its "all fake". My grandparents made remarks about it being fake when I watched it at their place. I also remember Al Snow telling the story of him telling his grandmother that he wanted to be a wrestler and her saying "why do you want to do that? Don't you know its fake?" People have known decades before the internet and decades before Vince Russo started doing that silly nonsense in WCW in 2000. Its just back then they lived it and had to work hard to sell that they were real. Today they just play video games during the day and play wrestler at night and act like a bunch of normal dudes. That's why there's also no true superstars. Fans don't want normal dudes. They want larger than life characters like when we were kids. When I was 7 I knew the Undertaker wasn't really dead. When I was a little older I knew in real life Kurt Angle would beat everyone, but they worked to sell the fans a story. Now guys just do their fake little match and shake hands at the end and laugh on Twitter. The business isn't dead because of it, but its whittled down to the most hardcore fans largely due to it. Kids and casual fans don't want to watch fake fighters being regular people.

And yes heels were legit hated but its because they sold it. No one wants to be hated today. Everyone wants to be a cool heel that isn't really evil but just kind of a dick. Then you got the lazy folk who want to say faces and heels don't matter that way they can just go out there and work spot fests to get a few gifs RT'ed on Twitter.

I find it hard to believe that riots broke out during the territory days were started by people who knew wrestling wasn't real. I can't imagine being a fan and wanting to participate in an angry mob knowing full well that the villain was simply doing the job he was paid to do. I can't imagine fans knew Junk Yard Dog didn't really get blinded by The Fabulous Freebirds and sent him sympathy cards and money anyway. I can't imagine those same fans willingly pulled a gun out on The Freebirds at later event in an attempt to protect a "blinded" JYD if they knew it was all a story.

@@BeeRawb See, the thing back back then there was something called "heat" which could get very real. No one really gets heat anymore. Everyone knew it was a show, though. People just got invested in it more because the talent were committed and sold themselves better. Today's wrestlers look and act like any dude I can find at any gym in the country. Even when riots broke out it was like "yeah we know its not real BUT WE AREN'T GONNA LET THAT GUY SAY THAT ABOUT US" If today's heel wrestlers weren't afraid of being truly hated by the fans there'd still be scuffles and trash thrown in the ring at least. But now they act like its fake, they tell you its fake, they work like its fake.

@@BeeRawb You misunderstand a little. I didn't say they knew it was scripted. I said they knew it was fake. Wrestling wasn't scripted back then. The scripts were a WWE thing that started around 2002. So, the promos came off much more real, too back then.

Yeah we all lost out on that one. Him most of all but damn out of all the cancer's to get, throat. He would have been so entertaining.

Ted Bell , Bobby’s shoot interviews with Corny are on KZfaq. They are really interesting and insightful, with both Corny and the Brain swapping great wrestling stories. The interview conducted by Newark Airport did have some audio issues but you could still understand the gist of the conversations.

can you imagine how entertaining the BrainCast wold have been!?!

1st thing he would do, is call you a ham-n-egger for using 'would of'.

Nope. MMA has wrestlers. The NCAA has wrestlers.

@@jpowers55 So chad gable, dolph ziggler, brock, angle, shelton benjamin, etc, don't count as wrestlers?

He has nothing to stand on concerning those who don't think much of show wrestling since there is no support for those who actually wrestling.

@@user-hc9qv9yb9m cornette was in the business at every single level. he deserves respect. now his ranting is a bit too much at times but at least he has passion and cares.

@@SAM-ru4vx That goes to my point. He was never in the sport of wrestling but the business

@@user-hc9qv9yb9m memphis and mid-south regions in the 80s took it very seriously tho.

@Ra HoWa fuck off

Ra HoWa lol you probably one of those guys that feels he has the right to say the N word just cause black people say it 😂

JaviFuego93 Free speech is a great thing my friend. Come bastard.

I assume being a teacher she must get a lot of jokes so to soften the blow and keep her day job she just says performance artist?

It was the _butter_ part that didn't go well

Yes

@@iBmEVanquisher You are saying something that I've been saying for a while. That's also part of the reason why WWE has sunk to where it is. OVEREXPOSURE

Finally someone gets it! Thank You!

I agree I put the blame on the promoters who keep giving these fucks work.

@bingbangboozygetinthejacuzzi While I blamed Vince McMahon, Vince Russo and Kevin Dunn for inspiring these dumb fuck to get in the business.

Wrestling has always been sports entertainment. The Attitude era was sports entertainment and it was awesome. Apparently "real wrestling" nowadays is indy mark, thigh slapping spotfests.

@@firstroundboxing1138 No. Its the AWL

Britney_ 2Savage what great points?

They have to tell this to scott steiner

@@arthurdaffos1490 right scott would be very pissed about it and eat some apples while he's kicking the shit out of anyone who thinks we need funny shit in pro wrestling.

These same people who say the business needs fun and silliness, shit all over WWE for being "fun and silliness". They're only turning to AEW, because WWE's "fun and silliness" isn't the "fun and silliness" they want.

Blame the old bucks for killing wrestling

I'm no expert, but I think it has to do with whether or not what someone says can be considered a matter of personal opinion. Cornette has even mentioned he had to deal with that when WWE was having him do his shoot interviews on WCW back in the day.

@@zomb60 WWE literally has a performance center. Why does Jim never shit on WWE?

Who is the butterface he’s talking about?

Female wrestler named Jorden Grace I believe her name is

@jlindsey241 her face isn’t that bad I’d hit that

With special guest referee Bart Gunn lol.

Well Jim has no room to call another woman a butterface, when his wife is a fat, disgusting landwhale herself

@@scottbreon9448 that seems very harsh

Daniel Casteel Because negative draws

I would love to see Jim’s thoughts on Toru Yano

Wally Rosario that’s about the only thing in NJPW he’d hate, but I actually wouldn’t mind hearing Jim rip into Yano’s ass too.

There's no such thing as a sport where the outcome is traditionally pre-determined. It goes against the very basis of sport, which is real competition based on rules. So, wrestling is not a sport, but it is tough and athletic and entertaining. I don't know why certain wrestlers and fans aren't satisfied with that.

To be fair yes.

Wrestlers get torn muscles,broken limbs,serious head injuries and some have even died from them if that isn't the definition of a sport what does it matter if it is predetermined. The competitors have to be athletes just like other sportsmen. You can be killed in the ring just the same as a football field. So it is a sporting contest.

@@christempleton9763 It's not a sporting contest. The 'competitors' are not competing against one another. In fact, they're cooperating in order to portray a competitive fight in the same way actors might portray a scene. Sport has nothing to do with how many physical injuries you might sustain. It's to do with actual competition. The only competition in wrestling is wrestlers striving to win the attention of the audience, but they're no different from theatre players in that sense.

@@christempleton9763 all of that stuff being true, performance artists also suffer those types of of injuries on The Daily.

Oh dear lord, butterface and pockets...
