I can’t wait until Jim Cornette talks about Sammy Guevara refusing to do AEW house shows, because he “doesn’t want to take any unnecessary bumps”. Sometimes the jokes write themselves.
Lol… but also does he not know how to wrestle w/o flying all over the place??
Because he's so stupid he doesn't realise on a house show loop you can do less bumps then what you do on TV an you don't have to wreck yourself in every single match you have doing stupid spots that don't make sense. He's another guy who thinks the only way to get over is to throw yourself through furniture every match
I can't wait for his review of Jon "Abdullah"Moxley's work on the ppv.
That’s all he does is take stupid unnecessary bumps. These guys don’t know how to have a match without flying through the air. They are clueless to what wrestling really is.
What a primadonna.
The spot with Action Andretti attempting a falcon arrow on Sammy on a bridged ladder…..that alone summed up the entire ladder match….a fucking disaster
Fr, that was stupid asf. Mans could’ve just did a simple back suplex.
Action Andretti's a real wrestler's name? I thought Jim was joking.
@@Billinois78 Reminds me of Action Johnny from Venture Bros
Yet those dumbasses said about the refs holding the ladder was for safety. What the fuck was that spot then!?!?!?
In theory if the heel Hobbs would have gotten out of the ring and intimidated the referee into holding the ladder I feel like it would look less bad
But that's thinking logically
They should have a heel who intimidates the ref into doing their job. Heel beats the shit out of someone and throws them out the ring, turns to the ref with a mean face saying "count."
Ref takes 5 seconds to count "one!"
Heel looks at the ref a bit meaner and steps towards them
Ref goes "two three four fivesixseveneightnineten!" Then holds the heels hand up acting afraid...
@@Sky_Blaze in their defense they didn't expect this too happened. But they should had told him to get another ladder
@@christian6455 there was literally one right outside the ring too lol. Pretty much anything but what happened on TV would’ve been a better decision. Even trying to knock it down with a big stick would’ve been better
@@christian6455 They didnt expect the ladder to be too small? ahahaha
Imagine if that iconic image of Razor Ramon holding the 2 IC titles atop the ladder had 4 referees at the bottom of the ladder holding onto it 😅
🤣
Pure comedy
I think there's nothing wrong with refs holding the ladder. WWE's done it before but good Lord atleast don't focus the camera on it. With WWE, atleast they know how to hide it so that television viewers don't see it.
Instead of just a hotdogging Earl Hebner
Surrounded by broken tables, chairs and barbed wire
"They fought off" I love that line
😂
I swear to god Jim does the best catchphrases. I’m forever doing the “lazy booking” or “they fought off” lines with him.
Sounds like a folk song, or an alt-rock hit.
Good lord y'all are marks...lmao
@@davey3884 can’t be any worse than you. You’re here even though you’re unhappy about it. We are marks, you’re a skid mark.
Ah yes the match for the golden hemorrhoid cushion
Can of coke to you mates
To be fair, Hobbs probably takes massive 💩
Eddie needed that cushion
In the HBK-Razor match Diesel tried to get involved and was promptly ejected from ringside.
"Did you see something, DID YOU SEE SOMETHING!?!"
My favorite wrestling ejection of all time
My response to the ref who asked if it’s more important to protect the wrestler or the business. I’d respond with protect the wrestler and the business by not having them do phoney garbage that is dangerous enough already.
"Grab a handgun", "hire a bunch of crackheads", had me rolling
"You can't put a hat on a hat!"
Perfect.
IT'S WEDNESDAY NIGHT... YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS... IT'S TIME FOR AEW HAT ON A HAT!!
Can’t believe either Wardlow is about to lose the belt that fast, or Hobbs is about to lose this soon after his long absence.
What makes you think there won’t be a dusty finish and a continuation of the Samoa Joe/Wardlow/Hobbs 3 way feud? You’re very presumptuous to think it’s all gonna end this Wednesday on Dynamite.
Again we've been down this road before....Tony can't book for crap
I think hobbs needs to win and a 3 way fued with Samoa Joe could be interesting but Tiny can't book
@@DonCrowseppe that's the thing they've already dome that they're just going in circles and playing hot potato. The tnt championship is meaningless only belt that matters somewhat it the AEW world title
There are no winners with the TNT Hot Potato, they either make Wardlow's beating Joe meaningless or they fuck over Hobbs yet again and making him go through that dumpster fire of a ladder match pointless.
"They fought off" is over with me😂
The "falcon arrow" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 jim got me on that one!
“The fuck name is that”
Just imagine in real life if some group of people at a bar just fought off and everyone was wondering what happened as they "fought off" lol
I’ve watched 2 drunks fight and both get tossed out of a bar simultaneously as they continued their drunken beef outside…. Never to be seen again.
It does happen
Drunks usually end up slipping in goo
@@Voysh2Voysh69 shit I know that would definitely be a situation where I go out for a smoke to keep watching because I'm nosy af lol
The visual of Power House Hobbs. On a tiny ladder with refs helping him climb it is hilarious.
I love me some Willy Hobbs, but having 3 refs having to hold up the ladder and watching him struggle for the Sonic ring was just disgusting.
Gotta feel for him. He's still green I guess.
@@RobertTrew yeah Taz was saying get another ladder but man it was bad on his behalf
The thing with Hobbs is that he's so big, he makes an ordinary sized ladder look like a kids toy.
@@christian6455 I was shouting at the tv throw that ladder away, go outside grab the big fucken one, body slam everyone else on the outside and make a statement.
The thing I hate now days with wrestling is they have forgotten how to improv to the situation around them.
@randomfagget3123 ....physics would like a word
I haven't clicked on a Jim Cornette video so fast LMFAOOOOOOOO we all was waiting for this one, don't lie 😂😂🔥🔥🔥🔥
I know it’s supposed to be a brass ring that you are grabbing but because Tony and his friends all love videos games so much I can’t help but think that they wanted to make the brass ring look like the rings you collect as sonic the hedgehog.
I do remember Michaels throwing Razor out the ring in that match and distracted the ref for Diesel to attack Razor. Then Diesel was caught and ejected from the ring.
I miss when wrestling enforce the rules 😕
Right rules actually meant something back then
@@daviddzwonkowski4722 good times
Technically, that made no sense. Sherri interfered in the 1992 ladder match between Bret and Michaels. Chyna flat out gave Rock a low blow at Summerslam 1998. Neither were ejected. Gorilla Monsoon even flat out said in the original ladder match that there were no rules.
@@ryanporzl1990 Doesn't mean that shouldn't have become the standard going forward though. Besides, ejecting the heel usually gets a pop, if the heel is truly disliked or the people just want to see the baby face win that badly.
The fact that they are surrounded by other ladders and didn't just grab another ladder is mind boggling.
I remember laughing watching this match when Hobbs won because my first thought was "How the fuck is he going to get down from the ladder?". The look on his face and the somewhat frozen nature of his body as he's standing up on this ladder, on national television, in front of thousands of people in the arena... this big hoss of a human petrified and teetering on the precipice of having a nasty fall and either ruining his career due to potential injury or looking like a fool for falling. Ultimately it worked out and kudos to Hobbs for keeping it together, but it's one of those moments where I was in disbelief when I was watching it.
I used to work construction, framing houses. You don't realize how scary a ladder is until you have to step onto that very top rung, then need to figure out step 2. In front of that many people? Hell no.
The problem isn’t the match itself. But everything surrounding it. The TNT is always being jockeyed, and the guy who wins this gets added to it. Look at the last 3 winners
No dude, this match was disgusting.
As you watch the ladder match, the LEAST IMPORTANT thing is to retrieve the object to win the match!
I think this match has a good chance to be Jim's most hated match of the year.
Don't get comfortable. There's still 10 full month's to go 👀
@@ButWhatIfItIs very true lol
Moxley mutilating Hangman with a fork might take the cake
wait for him to talk about the texas death match 🤣
@@backcracker08 cringe af that match was he's going to hate it 😂 especially hangman wrapping in barbwire and the fork spot.
28:31
“I’m dealing this shit part time”
Fucking made my morning lmao
10:46
Bryce: "HEY, BOYS AND GIRLS!"
Marks : "HEY, AEW REF BRYCE!"
Bryce : "It's time for ladder safety 101 kids! With you're old pal AEW Ref Bryce!"
Marks : "YAAAAYYYY!"
AEW has guys winning ladder matches who have never operated a ladder before
This video needs to be sent to every Wrestler in the world right now. Literally give them the A-Z of how to work a real ladder match without it looking illogical, dangerous and fake
The booker of year literally just booked this you can’t make this shit up if you tried 😂😂
And unfortunately MJF making Dave the Autist "part of the show" by shooting on his star system and flaming him in scrum immediately after will win Tony BOTY for 2023 as well 🤣🤣🤣
Somebody is going to get seriously injured in AEW. The lack of common sense there is insane.
Honestly, they're lucky it hasn't happened already.
Eddie and Ortiz 😂😂 fought to the back and never seen again the most wcw 2000 move I’ve seen
Correction: WCW 2000 would have at least moved the camera to the backstage action to let us know what happened.
Not only would we see a camera following the action backstage but, we'd also get to see two wrestlers in the background going over their match
While ignoring what was actually going on in the ring.
Half assing adhd repetitive bullcrap
And Mike Awesome’s fat girlfriend would’ve taken the stiffest guitar shot from Jeff Jarrett for no reason 🤣
Watching Hobbs face while he attempted to come down from the ladder was the best part of the match.
"People everywhere." - Brian Last
I miss one on one ladder matches. Psychology is involved.
The multi man ladder match is a spot-fest
#JerichoInventedThat
I was making dinner when this match was on so I didn't really see it blow by blow, but from what I saw, what a trainwreck! Kudos Tony.
Unfortunately , Hobbs winning this will put him in a match that neither person can afford to lose. If hes facing Wardlow, hes just got the Hot Potato Title back!
I can't wait to see Corny thoughts on the media scrum at revolution, waiting to hear his reaction on MJF calling everyone a mark
MJF is just like the rest of aew. He says this stuff to try to be edgy, hes playing a character. He's not a character.
The grown man who just swears every other word to sound 'hard'? He's being found out very quickly.
When planning a Ladder match, you need to make sure EVERY participant can conceivably reach the prize. Did they not have time to measure that before the show? Also, there were 2 ladders in shot that were not wrecked and yet they choose to use the busted one.
When I saw the refs hold that ladder for Hobbs, I couldn't wait for this review. I was very nervous for him, standing on the very top of that ladder. That could have been scary.
That cushion 😂
There is a ladder match PPV which is now more popular than one of the big 4 ppvs
I loved the aftermath of the match when Hobbs was just chilling in his chair with his new giant Sonic Ring and said “I got time!” While Samoa Joe slipped away and Wardlow was busy beating up security😂
This match was a microcosm of everything that's wrong with AEW!
The fact they had three refs holding the damn ladder shows how amateur and careless this company is!! Andi had aew fans actually try to defend that awful looking BS.
Edit: or just get another ladder quickly!!!
its called making sure there talent is safe and doesnt fall off, hobbs isnt the type of wrestler that climbs ladders alot, people are so stupid
@Doshi Gaming Yes, you are very stupid. He should've just grabbed another ladder. Or that id*ot Tony Kahn should've had a ladder that wasn't going to be used or broken, in case for the finish
@@doshi066 yeah ,agreed. If it was one on the gymnasts I may get the frustration.
Dude seriously? You want hobbs to fall and break his neck? Yes he should have just got another ladder but since he panicked and set it up of course their going to help him
@@TheLils15 also my friend found a few photos of when WWE refs holds ladders and nobody has ever complain this much, it's just another case of people wanna shit on AEW!
I prayed for this video and you mentioned that golden hemroid donut. Thank you 😢
They already did the "hire some crack-heads" angle....
MJF hired The Firm, to win a ladder match
It took me a few seconds but when i figured that take ashit was takeshita i died laughing ajaja
I nearly fell over my chair when I heard that Sammy is a Booker T guy who also mentored Rok C.
All time classic. Love the referee spot pal at the end
a good ladder match with a reason to have one can be very exiting... sadly we haven't had that in a long time
"Wild card bitches!"😆🤣
Hobbs crowing moment when they make highlight packages will always have 4 refs helping him climb a ladder 😮💨
5:28 Iirc the announcer in the HBK/Razor match at Mania specifically stated there were no rules.
Yet when Diesel interfered in the match the referee kicked him out.
The golden hemroid pillow 🤣🤣
Can't wait to hear corny on wardlow vs Samoa joe at revolution
Am I missing something or have they not posted a full JCE or Drive Thru episode in awhile? Love the clips but listening to the full episodes helps me get thru work lol
Having the refs hold that ladder was ridiculous, I could not believe what I was watching. If you bend or break a ladder you just go get a new one, how long can it take, 30 seconds, give me a break. Having the refs hold the ladder says look at our wrestling show, we are as fake as you can get.
so your ok hobbs makes a mistake and falls and gets hurt? boy these fans just dont understand the refs jobs arnt just counting for 3, its to make sure the talent is safe
@@doshi066 if they can't do it without it looking phony, that's a sign they shouldn't do it in the first place
@@doshi066 You are clueless, how old are you 12?
I am not ok with Dobbs getting hurt, I said he should have went outside the ring and got a different ladder, then he would not have had to have the refs hold it.
And btw, AEW did not need to hand that golden ring so high, they should have had it lower, so they did not need such a tall ladder to reach it.
I want all the talent to be safe, you just can not have the refs hold the ladder because it looks like they are playing favorites. Jim also felt the same way, as do everyone else with a working brain.
It was a joke and it made AEW look bad, like a fake tv show. Show me one time it has ever happened on any WWE shows, it just does not happen, and it never should.
@@steves2241 huh, I want the talent to be safe too, that's why I don't get why people are freaking out over the refs holding the ladders, and you know who can see it anyways the whole dam arena who's there so hiding on tv won't make a dam difference and btw I check and there is tuns of times refs hold ladders in WWE so you know who is plays favorites, WWE fans that wanna bash on AEW! Like type in Jeff Hardy jumps off ladders on cm punk, you can see 2 refs hold the ladder for him! My #1 thing is safety for wrestlers but people care about what it looks like on tv...stupid
@@steves2241 czcams.com/video/qP1fIn8at1k/video.html - here! boom its happen in WWE, i bet if you actually do your research your find more
The ring looking like its from sonic the hedgehog lmao
Oh boy, I been waiting for this
*grabs popcorn*
Dozens of ladders...uses the broken one...AEW everyone!!!
SummerSlam 1995 Razor vs HBK they actually don’t even use the ladder as a weapon, it’s all psychology.
"Golden Hemorrhoid Donut" made this whole thing sound like an MXC event.
Lmfao the refs coming in and holding the ladder more than one time in the match was so laughable and cringeworthy
You gotta really reach for the brass ring pal, godammit - Vince McMahon
Sammy got Jim all the way fucked up huh lol
Wait until he hears about Sammy not wanting to do house shows.
NO ! Shawn and Razor's ladder match wasn't a no DQ and it was a great match. Their Summerslam match was better if you can believe that, but if I had to choose which one it would be the Summerslam match. Found out later that Vince told them to 'tone it down a bit' which they agreed to ignore him and we as fans were glad they did.
The ladder matches today are nothing compared to the ones in the 90s. By that I mean I don't care to watch them as much anymore. Used to be the ladder was the only weapon you could use in the match now participants are grabbing all sorts of stuff from under the apron. And yes, Cornette is right, instead of 2 people there can be up to who knows how many due to interference.
WWE has killed watching Hell in a Cell matches since now they can grab, oh who knows what from either under the ring or get help from outside.
Yeah apparently the state athletic commission specifically told Vince that the ladder couldn't be used as a weapon, which is probably why Vince had them change things up
"Wild card, bitches!"🤣🤣🤣🤣
The refs holding the ladder was horrible
The way they keep on showing the ref's holding the ladder rather than focus on Hobbs or show the crowd 😒😂😂😂
I know theyve overdone these too, but why not just have a qualifying tournament instead? That way we have something to look forward to in some way every week, they couldve had the final match on the ppv, hobbs vs takeshita & both those guys couldve been built up by the time hobbs wins the match n faces wardlow
I was like, wtf is that hanging above the ring? Is that a Sonic the Hedgehog ring? lol
"And then it's Daniel Garcia!....The Rock's ex!" 🤣, took me a few seconds to catch the joke
Did Corny reviewed the famous NXT North American Championship Ladder match at NXT New Orleans? I feel like he should review that because that multi man ladder match was an absolute feel good banger.
As I recall, in WWE, the only times I've seen a ref holding a ladder has been when someone was doing a big dive from the ladder without it braced against anything. The ref holds the ladder to brace it so the wrestler doesn't spit the ladder out from under themselves when they jump. I don't recall ever seeing a ref hold the ladder so a wrestler can retrieve what ever is up there and win the match.
The worst I've ever seen was an old Stampede wrestling ladder match. In that case they didn't have a step ladder like they use in ladder matches today. They had a ladder that you would prop up against a wall. The ref had no choice but to hold the ladder for the wrestlers otherwise it was impossible to climb.
No Jim!
According with the AEW Fucks, people tune in to see this and Riho,we are all wrong!!!!!
I can't wait to see Tony Khan burying Wardlow and Hobbs with this Title Match on Dynamite, because there is no way that he will solve this big riddle that he putted himself into.
I really love the idea of someone coming to the ring with a bunch of crackheads.
I remember in the 95 Summerslam ladder match with Shawn and Razor. When Shawn first went up to win the match he couldn't get a good grip on the belt because it was too high. Then you could tell they lowered it and it was easy on his second attempt. Not sure why they couldn't do that for this match.
When the WWE does it it's the huge ladders and they never help someone climb the ladder for the win
The ladder was broken...
Been waiting for this one
Much love from the uk
He deserves a title of some kind for blocking out the horrifying vertigo! Fuckin christ
Am I the only one that saw a bunch of wrestler fighting over a Sonic the Hedgehog ring?
Ahh, the Golden Hemorrhoid Donut. The most prestigious title in all of sport.
Video starts 0:00
Hahahahahh. Thanks I had no idea.
Thanks bro
Audio too
hang on, let me check...
ok, can confirm
Citation needed!
I'm glad Hobbs finally got his moment, I just hate it happened in such a stupid botch filled match. You expect botches in ladder matches since you're working with ladders, but some of the moves they were doing were absolutely stupid.
I normally agree with everything Corny says but I still think Komander's spot was awesome 👌🏼
Bryce was my favorite ref in AEW too. He couldn’t have just shut and just shrugged and just been like, least I’m getting paid.
I love how the refs were holding the ladder while Hobbs was climbing it I'm like could he not get one that wasn't broken lol but I'm glad Hobbs is getting a push finally
Ha! As much as they have to break the ladders w pointless stunts he probably had no choice lol, was probably the only half-ass working ladder left.
Idk I'd have to go back n see.
@@ASCUMBAGWh0reI believe there was one more but i get where you're coming from on that
More like a push into a pile of goo
@Random Fagget nice name lmao! And yea he did bulldoze that biatch. Love hobbs he was my favorite in that match.
@@aliciasimmons8473 yea there was. It was a real tall one. Idk if it woulda messed up their shot w the camera spot or what. Maybe a reason he didn't use it. Either way i don't mind i enjoy hobbs and glad he got it, extremely surprised he managed to stand on te tip top and still reach up grab that thing! Ik i woulda crashed lol
How about the fact that Wardlow just came back from a few months off, to face Joe, and the winner gets Hobbs. So, Warlow and Hobbs are going to have to lose within 2 matches. . . and most likely will disappear back to Dark. Great Push
Omg the refs holding the ladder 😭😭 joke company
I was there live last week.
NGL, after hearing this, I now wanna see an entrant hire a bunch of coked-out crackheads to beat up everyone else in the match while they climb up for a quick victory.
Also remember, Samoa Joe got tangled up in his headset leaving the announce desk
This match was a fucking train wreck! I’m shocked that no one was seriously injured. They did dangerous & reckless shit for the sake of doing dangerous & reckless shit.
I’m dying at Takeashit 😂
I'm baffled Tony Khan hired Jeff Jarrett ONLY to be a performer. Jeff should at least be Co-Booker. Jeff can wrangle in
Tony's ideas.
How the fuck did they not test run someone climbing up? They're lucky Hobbs could reach the damn thing. I would've laughed in glee if he couldn't get it
“Golden hemorrhoid pillow”😂☠️
I legit thought Kommando was Bandito for half the match. Him and Andretti looked great tbh
The one thing Jim was mistaken about is that the idea of any ladder match being no dq from modern wrestling fans comes from WWE. Every WWE ladder match since the 90’s has essentially been no dq.
The end spot was horrible that’s the kinda shit that is killing wrestling
