Jim Cornette CONFESSES The Montreal Screwjob Was His Idea 

It’s the New York Blood.

The guy from Wrestling With Wregret does the best one.

His is funny, but I still think Solomonster's is more accurate.

Agree

I think that Frankie Kazarian does a solid Russo impression also.

IT WAS ME, SUNSHINE!

You're a fool JR!

Every damn one of you were made fools off!!!

Holy Shit" It's a Swerve Bro!!!!!!!!

Well look who won the pony.

It wasn't just Corny. Several people suggested it.

@@victor.elkins Except I never said that several people suggested it before Corny. What I wrote, very clearly means that Corny as well others suggested a screw finish. That doesn't imply in any way and on my behalf, who or what came first because that wasn't even part of the original discussion.

That actually didn't make TV. That happened when it went off air

Yeah even if you watch it on the network the ppv ends abruptly after the match before Shawn makes it completely to the back it's only on network specials do you see any of those other things

Scott Hall even said he never discussed the screwjob with Michaels during the documentary. That alone defeats his entire flawed argument.

Hes said before it wasn't him. Others say it was purely Vince. So ya

Bro

What do you know about the mandela effect? You see 1111 111 222 333 also?

Jack Daniels Effect.

The liquor and old age effect

Thats what i said a while ago..they said he hit Vince in the Jaw..so how'd he get a Black eye?

I watched the live version of that match on Dailymotion. And yeah it did. Shawn made his way to the entrance with the belt. Camera zooms in on the Survivor Series logo. Fade to black. So Scott Hall is full of shit about saying it's a work or at least his reasoning as to why he thinks it's a work.

@Bryan Mack No that's a shoot but I guess you can say it works him LoL

Well in the documentary Bret says that Vince came back to him and told him he could afford it and wanted him to stay but that he wasn’t satisfied with his creative going forward so he chose to go to WCW. But it is always fair to consider that he wasn’t going to leave until Vince gave the initial push to do so. That said I’ve never thought his stand was reasonable. I get why he felt that way but still think he should’ve lost it. Part of doing business is doing what you’re asked even if you hate the other guy

@@Matt-cr4vv where is that in the documentary?

Point in fact he's given two different accounts of that night, one on a Kayfabe DVD and the other on his own podcast

Jim Rogers His answers are always based on what will make Vince and HHH happy.

@Ze TheGame In one version Taker was sitting with him until the cameras arrived to film for Wrestling with Shadows behind Bulldog & Owen, after the ending of the match Bruce headed for Vince's office and ran into Taker and thanks to an exchange of looks between them for a while both had heat with one another thanks to them believing the other knew what was going to happen. While in the other he was sitting alone when they turned up and when the match ended he headed for Vince's office with Taker never mentioned

Ze TheGame Prichard is a spin master. Entertaining and funny, no doubt. But he lies and kisses ass. And good for him, because he got his dream job back.

@Ze TheGame Jim Cornette does not lie, he's a man of integrity. He doesn't mince words. I see your other comment, you're a Russo shill. GTFO.

Yes it does. The top guys in WCW were in their mid-late 40s and had like 2 guys to succeed them. It may have taken WWE until 2006 or 2011 and not 2001, but WWE would have still won the Monday Night War.

It didn’t need 2 happen lmfao!!

@@SirJoelsuf1 WCW was dead as soon as the merger happened so 2001 was definitely going to be the end. The AOL people that came in hated having Wrestling in their portfolios.

How do you see Montreal creating the Attitude Era? When it really started way before the term was used you go back to at least the build to Mania 13 when everyone was all pissed off, and really you could even go to the Pillman house incident in late 96 as the first hints of what was coming. Montreal had 0 effect on Austin’s rise and crowning at WM14 if anything it would have been better if Bret stayed since the rumored original plans were for Austin to finally beat Bret and get the belt after a year and a half of losing to him. Blurring the lines was Russo’s booking style so really don’t see it having much effect there either. Mr. McMahon is probably the only thing I’d agree with but who knows if he still played up the Austin is a bad head of the company it could have ended up happening anyway.

@@kingsqueadly2782 The Grammar patrol .👮

Your first sentence stinks. Hire an English teacher to fix it.

Cornys story sounds very legit because that book The Fall Guys was directly what happened to Bret and Shawn in 97 and if Russo Marks think Sh*t Stain and or McMahon figured that out then these Russo marks are living in dillusion

Exactly.

Exposing what exactly? That happened way before this when the WWF went on trail for steroids. You sound like Cornette.

Never got the whole Don Tony and Kevin castle thing. Always had a two pretend hardasses living in mom's basement vibe to me.

Bit late to the party but this thread is soo true!

impression!!!!*

Those stories arnt mutually exclusive and cornette also said in other interviews that the conversations about it we're getting somewhat tense and so it doesn't surprise me if cornette said it as a quick comment out of frustration trying to end a argument not realizing that Vince was actually listening.

@@shinzontheta They are not mutually exclusive but they differ in tone.

One quote from cornette was "well goddam just book him with Shamrock! He'll drop the belt then, just doublecross his ass!"

Rob Kearsy for me was when he exposed himself on stage in Detroit.

Uhmmm..................OK...........sure.................................... Eddie Graham, Bill Watts, Paul Boesch, Gary Hart, Jim Barnett, Ron Fuller, Jerry Jarrett, etc never really existed.......

@@handsolo1209 You clearly didn't read the comment bud

@@LordCrota - I'm pretty sure that I did. If I am missing some hidden sarcasm, then I apologize.

@@handsolo1209 Then tell me where I said those names were not great or good

@@LordCrota - So, you seriously think that in the entire history of pro wrestling that Jim Cornette, who was a decent manager and promo, shitty booker and promoter, fired from EVERY company he worked for apart from his own where he worked in the office and spends every waking moment of his life bitching about Vince Russo is "easily the greatest mind in thr history of pro wrestling"? You back this bullshit up how? Cornette isn't in the top 1000 greatest minds in pro wrestling history, let alone the best. He was a great manager and had some creative ideas and that's it. He isn't fit to lick Jarrett, Fuller, Graham, Vince Sr or Jr, Watts, Boesch, Baba, Inoki, Patterson, Giegel or anyone who owned or booked a successful territory's boot.

Brian Cromartie I had just finished watching it, I couldn’t sworn i watched it before but it was Great watching it.

Bret could've tried to get the locker-room on his side to force Vince to give him a better sendoff.

@@Clay3613 That's true, still he didn't do anything that would make me side against him. I don't know why people say there's an argument against taking the business seriously.

@@ThePunk01 You're forgetting the little detail of having a clause in the contact having Bret Hart wanting to go out his way

Yep at least twice on RU-vid. Famously on his "Montreal Screwjob" rant on the 1997 Timeline.

Yes even tho that’s true the 1 person 2 blame is Vince McMahon because he ok’ed the idea of the screw job fml smfh

Who exactly is saying this? Just curious.

I see it all the time

Michael Dixon: Completely agree with you. I'm a huge Bret Hart fan but talking about something 22 years ago doesn't make sense. His career doesn't have to be defined by Montreal. He did so many other great things.

​@@Al-nt8tn He really did. And I'm pretty sure I even read him saying that the purpose of him coming back in 2006 was to shift the focus of his WWF/E career towards those things and away from how his run ended. At a certain point, I hope for his own sake that he can let that happen. The more he does things like this, the more likely it is that his legacy will be defined by Montreal and the more he has to bring up unpleasant memories he's long since buried the hatchet with.

Michael Dixon: You’ve put it across very well. Totally agree.

Easy answer: money.

good for you

Nobody cares

Just goes to show Vince wanted to get rid of Bret Hart he basically did him like a garbage truck and took him to the dump SMH 😡

Shut your bloodclot mouth

That’s because Vince isn’t human lol!

lol haha. Ronda screwed Ronda. Her shoulder was supposed to be down. lol haha

Quint Quint yeah but it’s silly to think that they have some screw job finishes the same way as that match ended even tho Ronda is the heel and Becky was the face, it would have made more sense for Charlotte to beat Ronda in a screw job finish

@@Dreammaster695 You're silly. Your thinking is silly. Even with the lol. There was no screwjob finish. Ronda didn't have her shoulders down before the ref started his count. The ref made a mistake. Yes, that finish is sometimes used as a work. That's what makes it a good believable worked finish - that it can happen for real. The planned finish was for Ronda to be counted down for 3. It is silly to think Charlotte should have won with a screwjob. lol haha

Completely different. Hogan had his shoulder up at 2. Ronda had her shoulder up at 1 and down for 2 and 3.

Quint Quint well why didn’t the ref count once more lol

The specials are up on the Viceland website

@@TheSolomonster Thanks. Keep up the good work
