Jim Cornette on Dusty Rhodes Returning As WCW Booker And Trying To Bring Jim Back 

I never get tired of hearing Corny's wrestling stories, especially his impression of Dusty! PRICELESS!👍

'I didn't lie to Dusty I just omitted all the truth....' a line ONLY Jim Cornette could ever get away with!

Jim's Dusty voice is the most endearing thing ever.

Eaton: “Smokey Mountain Wrestling!” Corny: “Shut up!”

Aside from the Horsemen, Bobby and Stan were the guys that made me think heels were cool as a kid. Then Rude and DiBiase.

You couldnt make a movie of Cornys life..it would have to be a Series. Theres too much Gold to be told in just a few hours.

“You can’t pick what time a war happens!”- the Great Brian Last

If Dusty returned as booker today for WWE, it would improve. I know you're saying, "but Dusty is dead". Even dead, Dusty would do a better job than what's going on in WWE today.

20 years since the death of wcw today. Wrestling has never been the same since

If you ever need a laugh, Jim’s Tim Horner rant is pure gold 😂

I remember seeing Bobby Eaton in the Dangerous Alliance as a kid. Great stuff I thought.

The last time I was this early, AEW was a sports oriented wrestling show

"I didn't lie to Dusty, I just omitted all the truth." 😂

Damn Neo-Cons starting wars killing kids & ruining Cornett’s Memphis run.

Every time Jim does his dusty impression, it cracks me up, because he doesn't mean to be funny usually, but it's so spot on that it's awesome.

Shit when I worked in Memphis they cut off TV one morning for a riot at the local prison and the rib was there was at least two of the boys there doing a little bit of time.

The Dusty voice has me in tears every time 🤣🤣🤣😂

Rest In Peace Dusty Rhodes

I listen to Jim Cornette's podcast everyday. Luv the old stories💯💯

Bobby Eaton lasted in WCW, but he was not paid comparatively all that well. 1996 $88,709 1997 $76,970 1998 $81,250 1999 $98,114 2000 $58,913

I remember when Bobby got the push.

Dam this guy has a hard on for republicans, always has something brilliant to say.

I remember the Iraq war preempting TV the first day it happened. After that, things went back to usual. Was this continuous preempting a Southern thing?

I would love to have seen Dusty Rhodes yell at Jim Herd (read next part in best Dusty impersonation)he says he is willing to come back only sign the checks and stay away from Cornette baby or he will smack you red he might do some announcing just don't get in his way baby

If you had to travel w big van badger after he ate 24 white castle burgers youd knowntrue FEAR

I didn't support the war when my wrestling was on or my sports. Neither did my father and grandfathers.

Whenever Jim said now here's the thing you better strapped in cuz he got a good story for you. LOL

Travis F'n strikes again!! 😂🤣

Is he referring to that stupid thing at Beach Blast with Sting and British Bulldog?

Bobby was a Stud! One of the greatest!

Danger zone and power hour era...89-93

I didn’t get into wrestling until I was an adult, and as a kid it used to piss me off every Saturday morning when Channel 5 cut off the NBC cartoons in order to show local Memphis wrestling. I’d turn the TV off and go outside. I hated that so much, but now, as an adult fan of wrestling, I kinda wish I watched it

Lol White Castle of Fear story is halarious! Never made that connection!

His impression of Dusty is awesome but Jim is such a hypocrite when he whined about Republications 16:25 in the same podcast while admitting he lied to Dusty about not telling the whole truth about Smoky Mountain Wrestling 7:35. Incredible wrestling knowledge and experience, but man I wish he had a better understanding of politics because he constantly embarrasses himself with the misguided whining.

Cornette is wrong about Bobby Eaton being the longest running wrestler at WCW under Ted Turner because Sting was there at the beginning and the end.

Laugh at Bobby’s look or whatever. He was a hell of a wrestler

Smoky mountain wrestling!!! Shut up God Damnit!!! 😆😂

Howdy friends

Hold on a sec. Bobby Eaton talked?

LPGA .🤣🤣

10/30/1990 Jim Cornette & Stan Lane Quit WCW.

Early as a mug.

It's funny, you never hear an in between opinion on bill watts...either he was a mans man who was a good booker or a complete prick who looked out only for himself

Dam Jim does a great Dusty

10:55 what was Corny doing to his Mom? 😲

Coming someday to RU-vid: Jim Cornette On The Passing Of Jim Herd

16:37 Brian: “For the record the entire country supported that war.” Jim: “But not on fukkn Saturday morning at eleven o’ clock while channel 5 is supposed to be showin’ wrestlin’.” It’s uncommon that one man’s entire soul and psyche can be summed up in a brief exchange, but there is Jim Cornette in a nutshell right there.

Cody Rhodes trying Desperately to be Relevant away from the Shadow of Dusty but failing miserably ...

Ok

One of the greatest Mangers ever

16:18 Over there

They should of teamed Bobby up with Alex Wright and made them the new MX.

Corny !!!!

Jim Cornette's political views aside, he makes an interesting point. Natural disasters couldn't preempt wrestling. National elections couldn't do it, but a war could. The other two should probably be taken just as seriously, but the US has great pride in its military, and was excited to be part of a conflict the general populace supported after Vietnam.

cornette mentioned he was talking to rick rude...and then drops that off...wonder what that was about

Cornette mention midnight express every chance he gets in every interview. I don’t remember them ever being that great. Beautiful Bobby was way better on the solo. I remember his funny segment with Lord steve regal

I never understood the appeal of Dusty Rhodes when I was a kid (around 1986 or so I started). I always thought nothing was spectacular about him. I always thought the NWA had so many better wrestlers. As a booker as I found out he was when I was way way older. I never understood how he got such a high position. It seems like cody is the same way and I thought both I thought didn't deserve the position they were in on the card. Everyone disagrees with me of course. I just never got both of them and how they were super main event.

This is the guy who calls Easy E a 1 trick pony? Midnight Express & a bunch of crap that failed (SMW, Camp Cornette, NWA invading WWF, countless Midnight reunions etc) at least Bischoff could navigate WWE & Turner cooperate, and has name value in 2021 on a broad scale, making him marketable & hirable, everything else is the same between the 2, beating 1 group into the ground, and nothing else successful, but Jim's wrestling worked in the 70s & 80s, failed in the 90s as we saw with SMW, cuz nobody cared, & damn sure wouldn't work today, adapt or perish, also I don't care if they were big draws, the nWo shirt alone brought in more money than the Midnight ever did.
