AFCDannyFTH Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 I know not everyone here is too fond of Cornette, but videos like this show why his criticism of current wrestling comes from his love of the business that he has devoted his life to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8MileBU Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Watched Randy Orton on Broken Skull sessions with Steve Austin yesterday. Another good interview. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you got a clip of him calling Omega a paedophile? Would be interested to hear the context from the actual source. I've seen it posted lots of times on Twitter etc, but never heard it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 I do remember him saying something like that because Omega wrestled a young girl one time. Coincidentally, Kenny Omega did book a convicted paedophile on a show one time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could only find a Ringside article about the latter. What went on there? The article says he basically defended that decision with this Tweet: https://www.ringsidenews.com/2018/06/30/kenny-omega-reacts-backlash-booking-offender-show/ Hard to again, get any context though. Genuinely curious! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 It was a nine year old lassie. Never watched it so can't pass comment, but Kenny Omega, much like most of the DDT roster at the time, weren't against doing incredibly daft stuff. Omega also wrestled a blow up doll. Chasyn Rance actually knows some WWE guys as well. I'm pretty sure Ricochet still uses his gym as well as others. Omega booked Rance on a show at a convention that was a co-promotion with NJPW and CEO Gaming. Rance was convicted of sexual assault on people between the ages of 12 and 15 about ten years ago. So we're not talking a "both sides" thing here. He was convicted. And went right on, as soon as he was released, to continue to train children and has been detained as recently as last year. So Omega can take a running f**k to himself on that count. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like most things, Cornette's shock jock material seems to be grounded in reality. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFCDannyFTH Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 People love to call Cornette out on stuff but tend to have never actually listened to or read what he said, instead taking cherrypicked headlines and quotes out of context as gospel. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calling someone a nonce to thousands of people is not a throwaway comment, and his constant agenda against all things Japanese certainly isn’t “throwaway” either. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has never seriously called anyone a paedophile. This is where tone and context is important. I'm not sure that he has an agenda against all things Japanese either. He has an issue with tiny Japanese girls being booked to go over girls twice their size. Cornette is on record praising several Japanese male wrestlers from years gone by also. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insinuating Omega likes young Japanese girls isn’t really a thing you can provide extra context to. Nobody else would get away with saying stuff like that, and he shouldn’t just because he’s trying to work the marks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 He also said the PROGRESS owner should be hung for not wearing a suit after being invited to a WWE show. And lost his last wrestling job for being a racist. If you think he's not an attention seeking dinosaur, you're definitely NOT grounded in reality. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotThePars Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 What?! Is it Braun with Nicholas levels of cringe? What was their to gain out of it?Not having this retcon of Nicholas. That was genuinely class. Looking forward to when he finishes school and can come back and coach Braun to his second world title. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 someone’s made a thread out of an Andrade interview. The wildest thing alluded to here is Andrade apparently saying a WWE doctor has falsely told multiple women that they’re pregnant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
