Santino being slapped by corny was the most important day of his life but for Jim it was a Tuesday
Lol love the Raul Julia Bison reference
@@AlvosElRey There's an M. Bison drawing in Cornette's channel but it has Corny's face lol.

Damn right lol
I understand that this has been eating at Santino for 12 years, but how did he expect to come out of this looking good? If he beats up Jim, congrats, you beat up a 56 year old with bad knees. If Cornette was to get a lucky right hand in and Santino goes down, he just got whacked by a 56 year old with bad knees.
WCUK Radio Wait, gender? So if your mom talks shit about me having a stars and bars bandana I have around my head I have every right to unload with 25 right hands until shes in a coma? "Talk shit regardless of gender" right? Your rules boy, not mine :-)
WCUK Radio naw if you beat up an old man, you beat up an old man
You are a pussy.
Like Cornette said, he was probably looking for Cornette to throw the first punch just so he could look like poor old Santino being attacked by a crazy old man.
I really wish the second option would have happened.
"Joe, if youre listening...you stupid fuck." is my favorite line of this whole clip, and theres a lotta great ones.
I find it hilarious when he says "If you're listening to this....." in all of his rant videos towards the person as if they're definitely listening 🤣🤣🤣🤣
So jim never got his sandwich
I don't know why, but that legit made me laugh out loud. XD
He went to Wendys later on.

No wonder he was vibrating.

He’s making himself sound like a baby with this “I’m vibrating” aka I’m triggered
Grow the fuck up

@@countof3everybodyOD The fact that you think anger issues are a simple matter of "growing up" shows you clearly haven't been busy on that front yourself. It's worse than getting "triggered" and, speaking as a person who suffers from the same issue, when you have those problems and you get really angry, it feels like your entire body is vibrating. The whole "I'm vibrating" thing is code for "I need to get the fuck out of here because things might get ugly", not "I'm triggered".

Nice alliteration by Jim Cornette
He ran from the fight, guy really can’t talk
I knew exactly what he meant by vibrating. I have anger management issues, and have blacked out more than a few times on people. When you're that mad, and you blood is boiling it really does feel like you're vibrating! I did learn 1 useful thing in anger management: anger is a secondary emotion. Meaning, you're never just "angry" or "mad" at a person, or situation. In reality your embarrassed, scared, remorseful, etc. There is always what I call the "real" emotion, then the rage comes. So always think to yourself "why am I really mad"?
Thank u
Thank you. I have issues myself, so that really helps.
The worst thing with this imo, is when people act like it's some type of personal failure/disrespectful towards others if you need to walk away from an argument... My parents are terrible for this. Especially over the phone. They'll call back instantly and grill you for 5 minutes about how awful that was, where I can basically tune out and get my needed break anyway... But it's ridiculous more people don't understand some of us don't handle being angry/mad/hurt the exact same way they do...
“I’m offended by the flavor of him” is a perfect way to describe a lot of people I don’t like.
This story would've been better if Santino had bought the last club sandwich, and Jim Cornette saw him eating it.
I totally understand where Jim’s coming from when he says he’s “vibrating.” I do the same thing, except my family and friends know it as, “He took his hat off!”
I remember the 1st ever appearance of Santino. He was some guy in the crowd that got picked on and came out... It was a cute little goofy segment, but I was SHOCKED when he was actually part of the show weeks afterwards.
I think it was a program between omaga (might of butcher the spelling) and bobby lashley

@@CasualGamerGameplay people in Detroit are absolute psychopaths
@@CasualGamerGameplay
Uh yes. Yes, they are. The entire greater Detroit metro area is basically a failed state. The prisons in failed states are even worse.
@@CasualGamerGameplayDetroit was basically 100 percent built on the American automotive industry. Once the American automotive industry left town it killed almost all of the economic opportunities of residents of Detroit. It hasn't recovered and as a result has high rates of poverty and all the violence and trappings that come with despair.
14:30 “But my employer gave me a role to play” that will always make me laugh
Jim was ‘Hangry’ the whole time, dying for the Club Sandwich
Jim should've grabbed a Snickers, because he's not himself when he's hangry.
Those club sandwiches are pretty good tbh. I'd be pissed to if someone was keeping me from getting one when I'm already hungry. Poor Jimmy

So a guy getting in his face and challenging him to fight as well as not letting him walk away when he is trying to is still less angering to Cornette than Vince Russo 😂😂😂
L
Because cornette know he doesnt have the the carrot of santino getting fired........
This is the episode that made me a Jim Cornette guy ... I'm from Detroit and I remember this incident being mentioned all within my wrestling crew of friends. So, hearing this episode, made me want to hear more about not just wrestling back in the day, but about how the Detroit territory went from a lucrative place to a dead zone.
Long live Jim and Brian

I can only imagine Santino training hard, working-out, eating right(queue in the Undisputed Sports commercial w/ Skip B. and Shannon S.) thinking and dreaming about the day when he was going to confront Cornette again.....just to flub! 😓

The biggest thing I took away from this is how many petite female and (sometimes male) security guards I've seen all over the place in my life. Lord help them if shit ever goes down.
I'll be looking for "I'm Vabrating" tee at Corny's merch area on his site.
I loved that description, I'm nowhere as angry as Jim can be but on the odd few occasions I've been wound up so much thats what i felt like.
I'd buy one. Before he even explained it, I knew what he meant, I'm similar myself
When it comes down to it I think he was just jealous cornys line of fans was popping more than his and combined with the heat went into vengeful prick mode
Oh come on, Corny's got a legion of fuck-boy smart marks. He's a living-meme. It's nothing to be particularly jazzed about.

"my personal Dante 7th level of hell" LMAO
As a kid I used to love to hate Jim Cornette and the asshole of a character he used to portray but now that I’m all grown up I realize that it was exactly the kind of reaction that he was going for because he was a master of his craft and knew just how to sell it. He is such a treasure cove of knowledge of wrestling and the history of the industry and such 🤼♂️ And as an adult I can just listen him talk all day! Like goddamn I just love hearing his stories 👍🏽
Santino was a walking symbol of what a joke wwe is
He’s still tougher then you, second he was given a gimmick not like he had a choice
Clearly you know how tough people you don’t know are...good comment Santino
He'd still kick the shit out of Cornette in a shoot
bb 472 Santino is a real life world champion Judoka. He would kick the shit out of you. It’s not his fault his gimmick got turned into a joke character, but we should commend him for being able to milk a ten year character out of it.
@@tafttheraft5314 Sure he was a real life champ. And an underneath Japanese fighter knocked him flat in under 30 seconds in the first round. Real tough there
I've listened to this clip about 8 or 9 times in its entirety since it was posted and it is always just as entertaining as the first time I listened to it lol. Jim is the man.
I'm like that with the commercial ominbus volume 1 . Volume 2 isn't as good because Brian acts too corporate ( trying to keep the sponsors) Those sponsors knew Jim was gon butcher their products 🤷♂️
conrad thompson once called him the most entertaining person in the world, not just in wrestling, when he gets fired up. yup.
* Sees the time is just under 40mins **Cracks Knuckles** this is going to be a good one. *
“I’ve got an anger management problem.”
That’s gone without saying for well over 20+ years. Ever since the very first shoot interviews & Dairy Queen videos went viral lmao people weren’t watching those videos for Jim’s peachy personality lmao
I loved it"your not Vince Russo ,ur not important enough for me to want to whip in public"...LMFAO
You jujitsu Jack off lol
Santino should’ve said yeah Jim you’re a bitch and you only pick on people you know you can try. We already knew that.
I believe Jim more than a man willing to dress in drag for a storyline in WWE. Plus it seems like a setup by Santino based on his behavior with the camera rolling, it's like he knew that was going to happen.
It certainly seems like Santino deliberately provoked him, but TBH, he succeeded in getting Cornette to take the bait.
You are right Tim.
+Quinton I guess you're unfamiliar with the time that Jim Cornette dressed in drag for a televised show when he was with MidSouth, where he ran into the ring in full drag and beat the Rock n' Roll Express with his purse. He even shaved his arms and his legs for the bit.
Here he is telling Bobby Heenan about it: czcams.com/video/nSgTGOF3G9Y/video.html
The Dude That was Mid South. Marello did this for WWE. If WWE told him to jump off a brigde which could happen he would say when and where?
When I imagine Santino coming up to Jim, I imagine him doing that aggressive powerwalk and fist pumping with his free hand
He was in OVW for a year and a half AFTER the slap. He didn’t get called up right away
No but he got a wee contract is the point
According to Santino, he had completed the Beginners Class and was in the Intermediate Class at the time.
Satino was fighting a worthless battle. You can not make people like you. And Jim Cornette didn't like or respect him. I guess some people need that approval. I don't care if someone likes me or not.
Human cholesterol 😂😂😂
I've been thinking about this for some time now and I've come to this conclusion. I believe that originally Santino did wanna try to bury the hatchet with Cornette. But as Jim said he wasn't gonna give him a chance to get that far and once he didn't give him that opportunity Santino didn't really know what else to do and things blew up the more they interacted with each other. I love Cornette but I think he should've heard him out. But also Jim has a right to not wanna have a conversation with him and he doesn't have to like him. Not picking sides or anything just giving my two cents. Cause think about despite having the opportunity to strike Cornette he wouldn't do anything. To me it doesn't sound like someone with bad intentions technically I believe once Jim said we got nothing else to talk about he wanted him to like him and they be cool somehow but the more they interacted it got heated.
"Vibrating." I love it. It's a very apt description for something I haven't quite experienced to the extent of Jim Cornette.
Why are security guards so dumb . I was had a security guard to tell me o had to leave the building as I was walking out the door. I literally had the door open with one foot out the door . He actually ran across the room while I was opening the door to make sure he got to tell me to leave before I got outside .
😆
PSA: do not make jim cornette angry
Yeah, or else he'll bitch about you on his podcast for a week and act like you're the worst thing to ever happen to wrestling like he's a fucking authority on the subject. Give me a break. Worst case scenario the diabetic, geriatric, farina-eating codger will give you a headache with his shrill voice.
@Fuzzy Dunlop You obviously don't know some of the things Cornette has legit done to people who have pissed him off.
@@fuzzydunlop7928 you're a russo fan
@@victorspell1 That's the most insulting thing I've ever been called.
Santino would have ended jim if he really wanted to. Santino is a legit shoot badass
It definitely eats at Santino that he had to be the comedy jobber and was booked horribly and given a crappy gimmick instead of taken seriously, and Cornette just opened that flesh wound by saying he was always a joke to his face. That struck a nerve with Santino.
Arr you Corny nuthuggers serious? Santino is one of the funniest acts in history and he is very content with the career that he had.
Santino is a joke.
I've know guys like "Santino", we all have! Marella knew what Cornette thought of him and Jim TRIED to walk away but he just kept on pushing the issue! What's with people like him who can't understand when someone doesn't want to be bothered?
Santino is more than a joke. He's a coward that makes The Cowardly Lion in THE WIZARD OF OZ look like Randy Orton. And he's the same level of coward as Vince Russo - a man who hides behind bravado to hide his true self.
Santino is one of those wanna be wiseguy assholes from toronto's little italy district who thinks and acts like he's hot shit/a tough guy "with connections" to actual mafiosi who could hurt others if he wanted them too based on where he's from when the reality is he'd melt like ice cream on a hot summer day if he was confronted by someone who really would kick his ass and hurt him so he picks on people like a schoolyard bully to make himself feel better about being a fraud.
You guys are something . Cornette has been talking shit about santino for years and saying that he would hit him if he ever saw him again but when he actually does cornette pussies out and suddenly santino is a coward?
Mr. Bludclot I dont give a fuck about Santino but I noticed the "still real to me" people live much happier lives than the buggy whipped armed, out of shape nerds in the bullet club tshirts. We pro wrestling fans can go back and watch old Mid South videos and smile while the Ring of Honor marks flood the internet boards with whiny complaints that the midget Bryan whatshisname "isnt getting a push". Lol pro wrestling fans > new japan marks
Ngl I always thought Santino was entertaining as hell, he seemed like a chill guy so I never expected something like that
I've met him twice in person. Once at an house show over 10 years ago when I was in elementary and another one for my 13th birthday at an autograph signing
He was pretty cool both of those moments, damn near the complete opposite of his goofy character
“But my DIREKTOR gave me a JAAWB TO PLAYYYYY” 🇮🇹👨🏻🦱

Stfu
Cornette did everything right lol. He called attention,stood down and waited until he had an audience to get vulgar. He’s a 56yr old ,former manager why on earth would be eager to fight somebody. His opinion on wrestling and wrestlers is what it is,get over it.
Cornette talks a big game but he is a proven coward
Since when he's old u want to see an old guy fight a young guy lol
@@downnice95 What's the proof?
Santino was an embarrassment to the business. A Joke
The business handed him that gimmick doubt it was his idea
I'd pay any price to have one hour of conversation about wrestling with this man.
"club sandwiches to die for" Guess my next time in Detroit I'll be checking out the food court at Cobo Hall.
When Jim said he met the "Elbow Drop Guy" is he talking bout the dude who jumped off a 2 story scaffold and ended up totally missing his opponent laying on a table and ended up elbow-dropping the concrete floor, AKA- "The GIF"?
yes
How is the elbow drop guy alive?
Here’s my take on the incident;
I’m a former professional wrestler, and I’ve been on all sides of this thing for several years. Back in late 2011, I was still just a fan going to free shows for this promotion called the IWA. They also had me in control of running media, as well as video record the matches. I wanted to be a wrestler, so I went to train with them one Thursday. Not long after my training, I got in the ring during a show, and I was demonstrating my spin kicks and kip ups. I had fucked up and bumped in front of a few marks during intermission, and one of the boys yelled at me for it. I quickly apologized, and left the ring. I was scolded by one of the other veteran wrestlers that trained me, and he told me he was going to beat my ass for real if I did that again. I told him I was sorry, and I agreed not to do it again. Months later, one of the show’s producers asked me to show them what a kip up was (which is what Shawn Michaels did all the time), so I got in the ring and did two of then. I left the ring shortly after, and continued on to record for their internet taping. As soon as the show was done, the trainer I mentioned earlier asked to talk to me, so he pulled me to the side. As soon as he did, he started yelling about me being in the ring. As soon as he did, he slapped me in the face. I was stunned, because I didn’t realize I had done anything wrong. I wasn’t a worker at this time, so I was still green on the business. I was trying to apologize to the man, who had just assaulted me, but he wasn’t having it. He kept saying hat what I did was disrespectful, he’s a black belt in different martial arts, and that he’ll injure and stretch me if I clever got in “his” ring again. Then, he threatened to break my producer’s laptop, because he thought it recorded the incident. Ever since that incident, I quit going to the shows.
Fast forward to January of 2016. I started training with the very same company, which shortly after became the PWA. The guy who trained me wasn’t with the company anymore, but I became a worker under the name you see now. I finally learned 100 more things I wasn’t taught before, and I made sure not to step on any toes. However, after I adopted the El Caliente gimmick and became a referee, I softened myself up as Steven Rainmaker. I was made of glass, deaf/blind/dumb, and timid if the big macho wrestlers if they got in my face. Without being told, when heels threaten me in the ring as a ref, I would coward. Also, if they hit me, I would “go unconscious.”
When I wrestled in Newark, Ohio, I had apparently fucked something up. I celebrated after I had lost my match, and I had my ass chewed out by several wrestlers. I didn’t know I wasn’t supposed to do that, but that wasn’t an excuse. If I got slapped in the face for it, I wouldn’t have taken it personal. Hell, even when the trainer from 2011 slapped me, he told me not to take it personal. To this day, I’m not shook about it, and neither should have Santino. Do I think Jim went overboard and slap him? Not really, but I think Santino going to the HR people like that was a bitch thing to do, because this is professional wrestling. You pay your dues like everyone else, and don’t cry when things go bad. I’ve had my downs since being a wrestler, but I’m still a wrestler when it’s all said and done with. I take wrestling seriously, and I don’t get butt hurt when things go bad.
My closing statement; no, Cornette shouldn’t have slapped him. However, Marella should have talked it out with him after Cornette cooled down during the incident in 2005. If he didn’t want to do that, then he should’ve challenged Cornette to a fight and gotten it out of his system, but he didn’t do that. He let Cornette hit hit, snitched on him, got him fired, and wanted to bother him twelve years later. When he saw Cornette in Detroit, he should’ve left him alone when Cornette made it obvious that he had nothing to say to him. Santino was in the wrong in this instance.

I saw that huge room. It is amazing that you and Satino were sitting that close when there was so much space.
MY eMPLoYER Gave Me A' RoLe to PLAy......LOL.
Truthfully, it's probably best for anyone booking Cornette at this point not to also book any of the people he has public heat with.
Why is that the responsibility of the person booking the event? It's probably even better if Jim Cornette would acquire some self control instead of requiring people who book shows and conventions to accommodate his personal issues and proclivity to lose his temper and to “vibrate” as he puts it.
Cornette needs to be less of a sensitive snowflake and more of a professional who recognizes that he will come across people with whom he disagrees from time to time. If he feels that this would be too much for him, he should simply decline the booking.
In any event; it makes for good drama and gets people talking, which is the whole point of these 'worked shoot' confrontations.
That would be ideal, however at this point, it's clear he's not going to do that so anyone running an event who wants him to be part of it should use the knowledge that's public information and act accordingly.
That would be a long list
Flyerzfan lol sensitive snowflake? He was minding his own business when Santino came up to HIM. That's like if I walked up and shoved my middle finger in your face and some other person nearby said to you "aw dont be such a snowflake"
To make this analogy you had to ignore the reason the heat began in the first place - that said if you think ole' Corny is being 100% truthful with his anecdotes than I'd be tempted to use the 'M' word in relation to you.
Go from this episode to the one where Cornette defends JBL as not a bully LOL
I admire Jims toughness and willingness to stand up for what he believes in
Toughness. Lol yeah, that's what it was
Slapping an employee that can’t defend himself if he wants to keep his job is not toughness.
I do too especially since the fact that cornys parents are 1st cousins
@@greghughes6098 The man isn't in the best physical condition, but still stood up to Santino. He could have easily gotten hit.
@@ryanthec Perhaps not, but Corny was in charge and he felt this nobody, which is what Santino was, ruined an angle. Corny had a right to be pissed.
The fact that Jim Cornette isn't performing somewhere in a major wrestling promotion as a heel manager, announcer, or something akin to that is a tragedy.
There isn't anyone currently anywhere in wrestling that's even close to as good a talker as Cornette except for CM Punk and Paul Heyman. Perhaps Cena when he's actually working.
Cornette should be showing the young guys how to deliver a believable promo.
He sorta kinda does it for free on his podcast when he reviews shows but I hear and agree with you.
he said he makes way more money doing the podcast than he could make now in the wrestling business and he doesnt have to travel so i dont think he will be returning to the business

Jim Cornette VS Vince Russo with special guest referree Santino Morrella 😂
Did Cornette just admit Vince Russo is important to him. lol 26:45
WhatAboutThemApples He meant Russo is on his radar as the same way as that promoter in the yellow jumpsuit who sprayed mace in his eyes that one time.
Corny's sold a lot of protective orders with Russo's name on it! That's worth measured in dollars!
You mean Ernest T. Bass? That story was EPIC!
mavis4711humphries He should have been arrested for assault for trying to pepper spray Stacy. That was the ultimate act of cowardice
What he meant is that with his hatred for Russo, it's worth beating Russo's ass and going to jail, but Santino isn't worth the lawyer money and jail time.
Jim made every promotion he worked for better. He has a way with words.
I think some RoH fans might disagree
If Santino could have made anything of his career other than being the haha guy, he wouldn't still be fuming over what happened in developmental 12 years before. He's mad at himself and projecting it on to Jim.
It's also not lost on me that no other company on cable has even touched Santino. Kind of says a lot about how valuable he is.
Word. And Jim is the one who rubbed it in his face that day "You were nothing but a jobber comedy relief guy", further touching that nerve. LOL
Santino became a comedy jobber who acts like he was a bigger deal then he actually was. barely anybody remembers the guy and he was in wwe for a decade

I could listen to Jim Cornette all day every day. In my mind he is 2nd only to Bobby Heenan.
Yes!
I miss bobby
I'd love to hear Heenan's podcast in this day & age if he hadn't passed. Prob legit have me pissing myself. I didn't like him as a kid but watching old school wrestling nowadays & knowing what I know, he's the most entertaining part of the show.
Dutch Mantell mentioned that Jim has high blood pressure. I wonder if he ever went to a doctor to get diagnosed. I mean, he's talked about his eating habits and it sounds he eats pretty unhealthy (at least when he was working in wrestling). But that said, that stuff will eventually catch up. He might have to take high blood pressure medicine eventually. My mom was on that stuff but when she got off, she eventually had a stroke. I'm sure if he took medication, his podcasts would change drastically.
Giving Santino the IC title on his debut may have also been a token gesture to avoid being sued and giving them an excuse to fire Jim. It sure couldn't be based on talent. He wasn't the comical jobber yet and he never showed at any point of his career that he could work engaging 20 minute PPV matches so what other reason could there be?
My favorite was during that run, santino got destroyed and fed to by umaga.
There's Jims story and there's Santinos story and of course Jim will NEVER admit in any wrong doing his faith in his own certainty that he is right in everything's and all thing's is to important for him to do such a thing which is why he is the most unapproachable person in the world.
I love listening to Jim cornette
Why the hell he has not written his autobiography is mind boggling
I haven't read a wrestling bio in years but I'd DEFINITELY buy that one. I'd like to get Dr. D's book, actually. I like the old school wrestlers- they got the best stories. What are the new wrestlers gonna write about in their bios? Nights where video game playing got particularly intense? 😂
I'm sorry, but when an employee of a company literally puts their hands on you and assaults you (even if you did fuck up), it's just not "whining" to make a formal complaint. Just imagine if that was the norm for bosses to smack around their employees...SMH.
It's funny how Corny is taller than Santino
Santino (Anthony, the real person) has a a typical Italian-Torontonian accent. Funny it was so jarring to Jim. You hear that accent everywhere in Toronto
Does anyone know which episode this is from?
Y’all simping hard for Jim. Anyone who slaps another across the face and in front of the peers will always have a target on their backs. End of story.
Thats bullshit..a man that gets smacked and goes to call the law is a BITCH....and he should get the piss smacked out of him again as soon as possible..
NOPE. Any man who GETS slapped across the face in front of his peers should be the one who's taking the L and looks bad. Just how it is where I come from 🤷♂
And only a bitch stooges one off for slapping him.
Santino is the poster boy for simp behavior
How is jim Cornette the only person who CZcams subtitles work for
He speaks clearly & enunciates.
Imagine if Jim had join the Marines and became a drill Sargent
LMAO He is not Marine material. Jim's weapon is his mouth.
@@toohi2cuAnd a Drill Sergeant are just right as rain, peaceable talkers right.
@@toohi2cu and where he put banana
I forgot joe cronin catches a stray bullet 😂
Personally, I think he looks up to Cornette. He is just looking for the one "you did OK" moment from him. At the same time, the fact that the moment will never come, he needs to let it go and just move on.
When it comes down to it Corney said it just fine, there is nothing that says either of them has to like each other.
He doesn't need anything from Corney because in material terms he became a success in Wrestling, whether Corney approves or not.
Santino needs to let it go in the same way Corney was trying to let it go.
Jim laughing at him over phone was funny.
I looked up Joe Cronin out of curiosity, and I was like "Isn't this that Dreamcast guy?"
Imagine if Bobby Heenan had a podcast.
God. I know exactly what Jim means about vibrating and needing to get away from people. Maybe I need anger management.... 🤔
