Jim Cornette's 1989-1990 WCW Deep Dive Omnibus

[@LestatandBerial]

I work in a restaurant kitchen, and on days I work in the dish pit, I’m allowed to wear headphones. I don’t always agree with Cornette, but I love these deep dives because they are so long they can play for a while and I not have to worry about stopping to dry my hands and mess with my phone.

I never knew how deeply involved Cornette was with all this business... As a kid I only knew him as a heel manager in WWF. Fun to learn about all the crazy ass intrigue behind the scenes! Super cool to deep dive and watch old NWA and WCW videos. Wrestling was a hell of a lot more brutal and raw and fun back then in the 90s. We had a great setup as kids; two TVs in the downstairs entertainment room: RAW on one, NITRO on the other. Amazing and fun Monday nights!

[@mc12358]

Smoky Mountain Wrestling on WCYB every Saturday introduced me to Jim Cornette... Then later he turned up on Shotgun Saturday Night ca. 1998-99. My parents didn't have the money for cable, but once in a while my friend would tape Raw or Nitro for me... I saw a lot of Jim Cornette, but it wasn't until I started seeing his shoot interviews through tape trading that I realized how much Cornette knows about pro wrestling. And his love for the sport is very obvious in his podcasts. I feel that everything about the 90s was more raw, brutal, and fun. Rap music got more violent, TV became edgier and grittier, and as you mentioned, the Attitude Era and Monday Night Wars happened. I'm retroactively jealous of your 2 TVs in your living room! I'm always grateful that I came of age during the 1990s, what a great decade!

42:50 In 1989, I was an 11-year-old kid growing up 10 miles away from Springfield, MA. Jim is right -- nobody in western Massachusetts gave a fuck about WCW in those days. The fact that the WWF ran the Springfield Civic Center about once a month back then was only partly responsible. The locally-owned cable system we had at the time didn't carry TBS (and wouldn't until the summer of '92). I suspect there were other cable systems in the vicinity in the same boat. My parents and I were away from western MA on vacation at the time of that show, so this is the first I'd ever heard of WCW running Springfield. You learn something new every day!

[@bigdrew565]

Exactly. They ran a ppv in the Nassau Mausoleum in 88, probably the worst one they ever ran. They couldn't even give tickets away for that. They tried to fight fire with fire and got burned.

A 15 second search shows tickets to a WWE house show on sale for THIRTEEN DOLLARS (That’s totally almost a house/car payment am I right?) Unless you’re talking about ringside seats, which you weren’t btw, tickets to wrestling are cheaper now then they were then. That is, if you know what inflation is.

Jim is absolutely the bridge to a time when pro wrestling was at it's greatest point.

[@seangoodwin3046]

1:59 - I know exactly where Jim is. Walter Brown Arena is on the Boston University Campus, which is located on Commonwealth Ave. (A few blocks from Kenmore Square). Running down the Center of Comm. Ave is the "Green Line" trolley, so if you are about to cross the Comm. Ave to take a left - you will cross on top of those tracks.

I can listen to Jim all day. Grew up watching and hating him now I love all the content. What an intelligent and entertaining human being

[@nickh8737]

I watch these from time to time and everyone skirts around why folks don't tune in anymore... UFC

[@p.d.l7023]

I don't believe it! I remember something that JC didn't: Great American Bash was a ppv in 1989. In a promo, Dusty was calling it "Funky Like a Monkey Tour 1989." Whenever someone brings up 1989 (which seems to be a lot) like I have tourettes I must imitate Dusty and yell, "My funky like a monkey tour nineteen eightynine!"

I bet Bobby Eaton going off on the freebirds was a shock to everyone

[@Mr.Majestic77]

It sounds like Dixie Carter & Vince Russo would have been perfect for 1989-1990 WCW.

41:40 I dunno if even Terry Gordy could hold off a raging Dr Death, would've been interesting though..

[@johnreece5540]

I don't think Bam-Bam or Dr. Death care to find out. That's why they formed a tag team.

I remember in the late 60s on national TV out of nowhere they had wrestling on I believe it was Argentina Apollo Baron scicluna and maybe Bobo Brazil which was unprecedented at that time they blew me away couldn't believe my eyes but I enjoyed it this was on Long Island TV

Jimmy is a great storyteller.

[@wwebb1]

Really wish Jim would come back to Manage either The Revival or Cesaro.

[@madmanwebster94]

The WWE would expect him to keep his mouth shut on Twitter and be politically correct and we all know Jim will never do either of those things.

[@ScorpionTomb]

The revival need it badly because i think cesaro would do great without jim still more than likely.

[@nerdrage557]

No one is gonna move the waves for the WWE right now. Haven't watched full time since 2009 don't regret it. As far as I'm concerned it's a glorified indy show with better production values

[@madmanwebster94]

@@ScorpionTomb wrong! Nobody has to do anything! Political correctness is quite literally shit on by majority of the population and the people that do support political correctness get shit on more than any other person. Nobody supports political correctness except for a small minority of people.

[@manband20]

Revival would be great with Cornette as their manager, but I could see all three getting managed by Heyman. He'd give them all legitimacy as main event players and Cesaro would have someone to bounce off of during his promos. Dude can be really funny and charismatic and he and Heyman could have something that he and Brock never had since Brock was never much of a talker on his own. Cesaro, though, can talk and would benefit greatly from a good manager.
