Yet another failure presided over by none other than Eric Bischoff, in fact.

The funny thing is, the Young Bucks are so head and shoulders above most tag teams with their crazy offence that they remind me of the Midnight Express, who Cornette managed. I actually think Jim managing them would be MONEY. Sadly, Jim clearly disagrees.

Dude launches his own podcast and fantasy booking league. Cornette yells about Young Bucks. Bucks....???

He said on his podcast recently that he loves them as people and thinks they're incredibly talented athletes but he doesn't like their matches because they're generic indie as gently caress spotfest superkick parties with no psychology or selling.

I only agree a little. Indie as gently caress spotfest superkick parties with no psychology or selling? Welllllll...yes I suppose. But it's ENTERTAINING Indie as gently caress spotfest superkick parties with no psychology or selling. But Generic? Come on now, James.

Cornette's burger analogy is pretty accurate given the Bucks' role on the Dome.

I once went to Wendy's and got my brother a hamburger, plain. They gave me a hamburger patty in a salad box with no bun.

Kind of dumb to include Generico in the list of burials when he went to NXT and started talking like Jim wanted. Jim has a lot of dumb beliefs but his views on Generico's ceiling had much better reasoning than hating comedy, fat guys, and superkicks.

Sami Zayn Talking is fine. El Generico talking would have ruined his gimmick.

I actually agree with Matt. Cornette's ideas on what wrestling is are not modern enough, nor are they old fashioned enough. Wrestling is "entertaining the fans" and "making money". If you're getting the crowds in and getting them to react to fun matches, moving tickets and selling merch, you're succeeding at wrestling.

The Young Bucks are essentially a tag team of Sabu & Sabu back when he could hit his stuff regularly, except they are smartasses.

The bucks are very technically proficient and tight with everything they do. Honestly a team of 90s RVD and RVD would be a better comparison

The one TNA match RVD and Sabu had was pretty much clean of botches, which kinda killed the fun.

Sabu could actually work pretty well, I'm just at this point like 80% sure he just did a lot of high risk easily botched poo poo because it was a running joke even back in the ECW days that he was a botch machine.

Wasn't he actually, like, trained up as a technical wrestler or something? He's not exactly a mat wizard but sometimes you can see flashes of it. Ps: Sabu rules, fools.

Kind of dumb to include Steen as well given the fact that Jim Cornette yielded to giving him the belt and letting him be a fat rear end version of Stone Cold Steve Austin in ROH. Just be nice to Jim Cornette ok

Jim Cornette is miles down the ladder of Most Scumbag Behind the Scenes Figure and he has wonderfully expressive facial muscles. We love you Jim.

I used to kind of think he had a point, but gently caress it. Eventually I learned to stop worrying and love the superkick.
