Jim Cornette Reviews AEW Dynamite (October 4, 2023)

[@michaeldion918]

Thank you Travis for the honoring of #51

[@fisherman123-k9k]

Fifty one is a pumpkin head

​@@fisherman123-k9k Butkus

[@chadwickerman]

Jimmy's wearing Dick Butkus' number 51. Rest in peace number 51.

[@stu9856]

Dick B was a ref at Mania 2 & worked for the 2001 XFL

[@virgilhawkins7368]

Usually when AEW has an overrun, it's higher than the average. I think it's because people are tuning in for the next program. Like Jim said, I don't think all those people tuned in for Edge, because the show is normally over.

[@mjdf122]

Tony Khan’s biggest influence on his life was Herb Abrams

[@bigron8896]

HERB ABRAMS IS THE GOAT. I'm sorry but if you can go out covered in baby oil and cocaine amidst a sea of hookers while swinging a baseball bat at the police you may not be sane or sober or able to book matches or someone I ever want to meet irl, but you're a legend. TK will never do anything that cool.

[@andisuge]

Dave Meltzer and his dream matches.😂😂😂

[@chico1680]

Brian hit the nail on the head in regards to your typical Edge promo. Most come off as scripted forced emotion acting instead of someone talking from the heart.

[@Quattro_Bajeena]

Edge is overrated but I’d say he’s top 30

[@malikevans2615]

He's a better heel imo

[@malb.4107]

Adam Copeland needs to go through aew developmental

[@Noobie2k7]

​@@malikevans2615I always find it weird when the WWE now AEW try to book him as a face when every single time hes been at his best he has been heel. He was part of the best heel tag team of the attitude era, was then a main event heel during his Rated-R run. He's never been a top babyface. Really he should have come down to 'save' Darby and Sting and then immediately blasted them with the chair and joined Christian. Hit Darby with a proper classic conchairto since i bet he'd take it. It's just the predictable someone makes their debut or return so have to be a babyface thing I guess.

[@EmmettXIV]

@@Noobie2k7 Edge is better as a heel but AEW is too heel heavy right now so there needs to be a balance

[@wilcee238]

After the latest Raw and Smackdown, It’s like WWE is the 85 Bears and AEW’s ratings are doing the Toilet Bowl Shuffle.

[@shyguy85]

[@scotthemond5750]

Aew is sloppy wwe is boring💯

[@williammitchell4417]

It makes me think of football f__ery🤬

[@aaronrumph3291]

both WWE and AEW are pretty stagnant in their ratings neither going up or down both keeping their average viewership. WWE has improved a bit from where it was 3 years ago though, whereas AEW has stayed about the same

[@louissmith4218]

Agree. I rather have the old MJF instead of the crap he is doin now

[@catman88722]

Corny Butkus!! Travis’ artwork is the best!

[@johnnygrind77]

Corny wearing a Dick Butkus jersey makes my heart happy.

[@patrickjonathan4744]

It sucks that guys like FTR, Edge, BD etc had to leave WWE because they weren't being used right. Now they are trying to build something but as long as Tony is booker of everything things will only get worse. I say that as a casual fan who has given up.

[@zemm9003]

Edge only wants to work with Christian so I doubt he cares about creative.

[@Rey-gq2il]

Don't forget the elite' they part of the problem too.

[@natebaxter9551]

They were offering DB a spot in creative and part time wrestler. Which is basically what he is now.

[@wolfhound8675309]

Tony likes lines

[@Zantar45]

There are more lines in Tony's office than there are at any AEW show

[@bryanellis459]

May as well go back to Sexton Hardcastle

[@lalomontoyajr.9282]

I got an idea for AEW to get high ratings for Dynamite. Just announce that Sting will go 1 on 1 against The Edge this coming Wednesday. But don't say which Sting and The Edge. That way people will think it's The Polices' Sting and U2s' Edge and they will tune in by the millions lol! And when it works they still won't be called lairs because they can say "Sting did fight Edge, we just didn't say which ones" lol! 😂

[@travisboyle285]

Toni Storm is the only thing I care about now in AEW.

[@FortunateJuice]

I can't wait to hear about Tony Khan's "lack of payment on the bill" story.

[@pjsep5040]

Love the Jersey reference, RIP to the OG #51

[@mjdf122]

I don’t like Tony but I do like Toni

[@RasslinMan]

Love you Mr. Butkus! RIP LEGEND 🫶❤️

[@naxireal869]

On the Cole/Kingdom/MJF stuff, they act like how screen writers think middle school girls act. That works for like Deadpool, a literal parody of hyper masculinity. Doesn't really work when half the roster already needs help from Charles Atlas.

[@joserosas5952]

Kenny was out of it.... he was with Matt Riddle trying to sign him lol

[@TD1021-]

Tony Khan truly is the Meth Master Booker

[@joepanck3053]

[@rudyrusso711]

AEW = SINKING SHIP

[@walterspencer7524]

42:22 Cornette funny as hell as usual here

[@john_blues]

Dick Butkus, back when you could break a quarterback in half with a clothesline and not get a penalty. RIP Mr. Butkus.

[@SunshineStateCoasters]

Hey Calvin Ridley! Tony stole your jersey again!

[@rudyrusso711]

TK is startin to give Herb abrams a run for his money..

[@girldaddividendinvestor]

Fantastic artwork, per usual. R.I.P. Dick Butkus.

[@KokNoker]

The shirtsleeves to shirtsleeves adage is coming to mind. There is no way with a 400,000 viewership that they have enough fans to be sustainable. The diehards can only afford so much merch.

[@WarGhoulKharas]

That Excalibur rant was great.

[@ajjjay9583]

Edge on dynamite was like a special guest on giligans island, meeting everybody, now he should abandon the island like the other special guests.

[@mrrobert9176]

You can tell watching Omega that his body isn’t holding up. Can still move but it’s very obvious

[@Simon_Diamond803]

Lets just call Edge "End" now

[@FortunateJuice]

Lol

[@djtexicano]

Or "Over The Edge" because he's run out of road! 😂

[@ajjjay9583]

Call him ledge

[@actuallynotsteve]

CBD being the hard counter to people on THC is genius

[@willisskull2676]

I'm starting to get Slapshot 2 vibes from AEW listening to this. A hockey team is sold and becomes the losers for a Globetrotters type team. They turned into clowns for the money. It was like an epiphany listening to Jim talk about Cole.

[@mooper11]

RIP #51

[@paulgarcia9682]

My tv was showing episodes of The Big Bang Theory at around 5pm where AEW Dynamite was listed before it eventually came on at its regular time

[@bled83]

The picture-in- picture Toni Storm segments were fucking ridiculous.

[@TjM1978]

I just picture Jim like Ok Tony we need 4 yards

[@omarporter851]

If Steve Austin hadn't become a Babyface when he became a baby face? Very insightful comment, Brian.

[@insupportofjunhado]

My grandmother was a fan of Big Bang Theory. She tried really hard but couldn't get into Young Sheldon.

[@trevorhintz1290]

MJF and Cole should’ve turned heel and attacked FTR after to losing the tag title match to them.

[@Bunterino]

What happened to Tony's smile? LMAO must be because everyone hates him on twitter

[@jonjohnson445]

15:58 The definition of "straight edge".

[@andrewmartin3228]

I have been watching the Mlb playoffs on TBS haven't seen one AEW ad

[@Zantar45]

Those Cole-MJF segments are NXT and Johnny Gargano level garbage. I don't blame the NXT kids because they are new and still trying to figure things out, but the older guys should know better.

[@NedTheBison]

New drinking game, take a shot every time Corny says "program" & "never the less". Good luck staying sober... 😉

[@Matthew_Smith179]

"Anyway..."

[@NedTheBison]

@@Matthew_Smith179 that could definitely be included. He does say "Anyway" alot. I love Corny but he sure does repeat a few phrase WAAAAAY to much.

[@DeadlightOG]

Brandon cutler is the one filming the Adam Cole segments.

[@johannesnuka3908]

How long does it take for Jim to say he won’t watch another Dynamite? Maybe adding NXT or Impact would be beneficial.

[@ajjjay9583]

Michael Cole grew into commentary with Vince yelling in his ear. Who does sock face have, yelling in his ear?

[@piturripi]

Is mjf just having fun before he goes to WWE next year?

[@southcarolinagrizfan1594]

I'm starting to think that they're subliminally burying MJF. I can almost bet he's WWE bound next year.

well the good news for Tony is that his team will most likely win their division

[@renafan3333]

I don't believe for half a second that was a mistake. When has that ever happened? Sure a wrong program in the time slot happens all the time. I'd be pissed too if I was Tony and a bunch of people DVRd it and it wasn't recorded for that. But put on a whole different time of day? Ridiculous. Tony sensed they were gonna get MOLLYWHOCKED and had Warner Brothers agree to air it at 4:00. Then someone got in his ear and was like "Are You Crazy,It Makes You Look Like You Are Running Away From A Fight"

[@IWRInteractive]

I mean, does Jim know Brian is joking about what Young Sheldon is?

[@louissmith4218]

I agree. I like AEW but the cole mJF story really is bad. Crabbing for straws. I’m tuning them out. Toni is way to talented but so miss used.

[@mollyfud]

Side issue/point: Wouldn't a "blind guy" have an advantage in hitting a pinata? Don't you blindfold people trying to hit it?

[@natebaxter9551]

No. They blindfold you to make it hard. If you can see the pinata it's over in one swing.

[@mollyfud]

@@natebaxter9551 but that is what I'm saying. If you assume someone that is blind has there other senses more developed (a soften happens) they are at an advantage over anyone else that gets blind folded as they are use to not seeing!

@@mollyfud blind people aren't Daredevil. The more sensitive other senses thing is true but is greatly overblown.

@@natebaxter9551 right. But if you were betting with no more information than blind person v blind folded person in a pinata comp, you would bet on the blind person, no?

[@marvinleong5902]

I don't think Takeshita will be joining WWE. Japanese wrestler tend to be loyal and grateful for the company for making them stars. AEW and Tony did more than NOAH. Unless something happen and deteriorated his relationship with Tony and AEW. It won't happen Takeshita would go back to Japan then going to WWE

[@Cruising_On_Lake_Havasoma]

WWE already has a Japanese guy, they're not gonna employ 2.
