Jim Cornette Plays Guess The Program

[@ryanshoptaw6006]

This segment inspired me to get into collecting programs. 27 unique ones dating back to 1937 so far

[@greenonions7492]

Nice! Which one is your favorite??

[@ryanshoptaw6006]

@greenonions7492 I just picked up one that belonged to Angelo Poffo's estate and was given to Gypsy Joe with directions on how to get to a show in Fresno California. It's from 1950

[@greenonions7492]

@@ryanshoptaw6006 that's cool. What wrestling company?

[@ryanshoptaw6006]

@@greenonions7492 That would have been NWA San Francisco

[@greenonions7492]

@ryanshoptaw6006 take care of that stuff, dude.

[@atfmedia9540]

If the program says "Hands of Stone" Ronnie Garvin, the contest should be correctly guessing how many wrestlers were punched to death that night.

[@Snakeman612]

I LOOOOVE Ronnie Garvin....But too me Hands of Stone will always be Roberto Duran!!!

[@NLaBar]

“You could tell when Ronnie Garvin was about to start his comeback because his nipples would get hard & then he’d beat the shit out of you” -Jake the Snake Roberts

[@Osvie01-uc8go]

​@@Snakeman612I've only known Roberto Duran as the hands of stone.

[@Snt-Berg]

Or how many times Andre the Giant was slammed that evening

[@Halbared]

Or stomped.

[@kevinfeatherstone6062]

these are my favorite segments. to hear Corny try to put it together and come up with the town and year is just fun to listen to.

[@P20StudioWrestling]

This is actually incredible. Corny is one knowledgeable dude

[@ddw1210]

Love these. They are so much fun. Thanks for sharing.

In the 80’s and 90’s while Greg Gagne was with the AWA the Minnesota Twins had a shortstop with the name Greg Gagne (Gag - knee). Always found that crazy.

[@mac888spectral7]

I went to school with a Chris Benoit (pronounced Ben-oyt)

[@gothard5]

Vital part of the 1987 and the 1991 World Series Champion Minnesota Twins teams I believe. I have a lot of Greg Gagne baseball cards. Kirby Puckett was the unquestioned hero of those teams though. What an incredible hitter Kirby was.

[@jonathandrewstefancin5924]

WOW youre right

[@stinkypinkeee5085]

@@gothard5We don't talk about the '87 Twins...(Cardinals fan)

[@Snt-Berg]

@gothard5 My brother signed a Greg Gagne card, the card guy closeby asked if it was legit. LOL. Yeah, people in NW Indiana have crap loads of Greg Gagne cards to pawn off. 🤨

[@KennyA09]

I don't ever want to hear them complaining about NXT names again. Some of the names on these programs were terrible 😂😂

[@quentinkaasa47]

But NXT names are currently terrible. There's plenty of room for criticism.

[@claytonjones8358]

One of the best parts of the show! More Please!! Hope y'all are staying warm!!

[@JaylenJPark]

Now let’s bring back gordon solie trivia game

[@stinkypinkeee5085]

Oh yeah, let's do it!

[@legendbucwild]

I also guessed 1961 on that Fritz Von Erich-Detroit event.....I guess if it's wrestling and you're wrong with Jim Cornette, at least you're in good company

[@bojow8102]

I love guess the program 🥰 no matter who's guessing. Thank you guys ✌️

[@HisNameIsX1]

I could listen to a whole show of just guess the program.

Johnny Rivera was Invader # 3 and Johnny Rodz was Super Medic # 2. Super Medic # 1 was Jose Estrada of WWWF fame. Jose Gonzalez fought Brody in a great number of matches. They also wrestled as a tag team.

[@ernestcruz6316]

Chief Chewacki wrestled towards the end of his career as "Chief Chewchki". Chewacki worked as a Romany Gypsy, but as Chewchki he was billed as being a Native American. That very last card mentioned is on the WWE-Peacock network, or at least most of the show is.

[@midnightpiledriver]

Yesss, I've been binging these Guess the program videos for a couple days now. Great to get more.

[@mauricecarvin430]

I usually listen to them when I'm doing orders, good long videos and Jim loves talking about the old days

[@travismiller4320]

I play them while brushing by teeth.

[@AppalachiaDee]

Corny should do an episode booking now until mania 41

[@stephenguerra576]

Love these segments

[@kingofclubsyt]

Mid-States Wrestling has a bell time of 7pm whenever they come through southwest Missouri. They're based out of Harrison, Arkansas.

[@JeremyKasperson]

There were arenas that would manipulate their start/end times to encourage families to go to local restaurants. Baseball teams in the 70s and 80s would start at 7:30 instead of 7:00 to give families more time to eat before the games, and the games back then only lasted 2:00 hours or 2:30 hours. Sunday matinees were encouraged to end around 5:00, so you would go directly to supper.

[@gregorykrug8034]

Lenny Montana (who played Luca Brasi in the first Godfather movie) wrestled as "Chief Chewacki" for a time, but he was not the same "Chief Chewacki" being mentioned here.

[@TheEnzyme94]

I really enjoy hearing these! I almost guessed one! I was close, I remembered most of the stars!

[@kanekanekaneable]

Scrolled n saw this, smiled, can't wait for bedtime 😴 😄

[@maddogsportzjh]

…managed by Percy Pringle the Third. 😂😂😂

[@richardcoreno]

Chief Chewacki - aka Lenny Montana

[@JasonL77]

What’s funny about mispronouncing Verne’s last name is Verne’s son Greg. If you mispronounce Greg’s last name like Jim & Brian did, then you could be talking about Greg Gagne who used to play shortstop for the Minnesota Twins.

[@jorgebarrera2165]

Was Gashouse Gilbert a member of the Gashouse Gorillas baseball team?

[@richardcoreno]

FANtastic segment!

[@insupportofjunhado]

Surprised they didn't mention fines or penalties, to the wrestlers who ganged up on the referee.

[@mattlong81]

Dallas 1987 was a horrible time period…even as a kid I knew this promotion was on life support

30:48 editor wanted to get off early and just threw that last piece in 😭

[@SirClydeBearowthe2nd]

I was able to guess the year on the first one somehow. Just heard dirty white boy and thought of taker talking bout his crew and figured this was pre wcw taker can’t draw a dime.

[@AAVVVAAADDAAAKAAADAVRAAA]

I kept waiting to hear with Percy Pringle 😂😂😂

[@antfbi]

The third

[@thomaslyne3243]

I thought it was Gagne.

[@gregorykrug8034]

It's Gagne, not Gagne.

I had the year on first one. Pretty much could tell it was late era of that promotion. Parts of that last one is on network. How I figured it out for sure. I didn't always agree with bruno on how wrestling changed but man I don't think anyone would disagree with his take on Ali and Inoki

The best segment,hope we get some for the holidays

World Championship Wrestling started here in Australia in September 1964, so Barnett was likely still in the US.

Classic Wrestling!!!!!

[@RyanHerrmann-r5e]

23:55 It wouldn't have been Buffalo anyways as women's pro wrestling was banned by the New York State Athletic Commission from around 1941- June 1972. Vicki Williams and Moolah competed at Madison Square Garden on July 1972.

[@jonathandenatale6878]

FUCK YEAH

[@LadyTreez420]

👀

[@Cruising_On_Lake_Havasoma]

Trash.

[@mrhaag]

Thank god for KZbin clips. A couple months ago i was on vacation and didn't listen to any of the podcasts and i gotta say that it was refreshing. Jim spends most of his time pissing and moaning about the "good old days" that actually sound just awful. Complaining about modern technology, complaining about politics, whining about this or that. Rambling on about his crappy website and insulting his own sponsors while Brian drops references ti his gardener and maid. Like a serious amount of the show is easily skipped. Also for a man in his 60's that claims to be as far left as he does jim is heavily racist, sexist and overall incredibly childish.

[@mjdf122]
