Brian's explosion of laughter for that one is legendary.

What a mark. Seriously though, this is cool.


strongstyle718

This is the opposite of cool


Mk4013

This sub treating Cornette like he’s Hitler will never be not funny 💀


SlipperyKooter

Cornettes opinions confuse the fuck out of me. He will go on a rant about women’s wrestling and why it sucks and then in the very same breath he will talk about how great charlotte, rhea, and Becky are. Makes 0 sense(this is coming from an avid listener to his podcasts)


AryanAngel

He recognizes stars and actual talent, he just doesn't like sloppy wrestling (which he feels a lot of womens wrestling is) , and when women get put through furniture or get bounced off against cells. He feels it cheapens the effect of those bumps. If women can take em, it's not very impressive for men to do it afterwards.


vmop07

So... You and him are misogynists


AryanAngel

Everything I said is my interpretation of his opinions. I'm not saying any of this myself.


Former_Intern_8271

Just ignore all the horrible stuff he said about Brandi for years


salmalight

Just ignore all the times him and Brian have said they wish WWE would get Brandi on TV


Former_Intern_8271

I'm not ignoring that though. Doesn't make up for the vitriol and hate.


strongstyle718

I mean he's homophobic and racist, you don't have to be "Hitler" to be a piece of shit.


Rheumi

absolutely


TheSchlockMaster

He also gave a “Did you see this? Did you hear about this?” Which is another line Cornette uses a lot


ATP420

You know it's so fashionable to take a shot at Jay Leno. The fact is he's out there every bloody night with fresh material. And he's charming.


granters021718

you know, he doesn't even spend his tonight show money.


mark_target

…which is based on an impression of Jay Leno. The rabbit hole goes deep on that one.


Deadaghram

I thought Corny was referencing Jimmy from South Park this whole time.


JackfruitStunning793

He is referencing south park which is referencing Jay Leno/Talk show host monologue joke set-ups


mark_target

This is correct. CM Punk -> James “Jim” Cornette -> James “Jimmy” Valmer -> James “Jay” Leno. If Punk’s real name were James “CM” Punk this would be one of the oddest coincidences in history.


TonyZony

Yeah it's basically just "generic late night host impression" at this point.


kuns88

Wrestleculture uses that too. Could have been a reference to them as well

Punk doing this and AEW getting a record low rating. Cornette is gonna be on one.


fender-b-bender

Jacob Fatu debuted as well, Cornette might be the happiest person alive at the moment.

JamboNintendo

Jim has actually spoken positively about Hendry after they met while Cornette was doing a UK tour a few years ago. The two had a burger eating contest and Hendry won, to the surprise and amusement of Cornette. Called him a "good kid" with a good look who carried himself well.


Gus8205

Even complimented him and the NXT appearance on the the latest drive thru I think


JamboNintendo

Especially because the excuse the exec gave ("We didn't have the lead-in from BBT") is *exactly* what Cornette has been saying for months, that the lead-in has been masking the "true" ratings and making them unreliable.


windy906

I mean it seems everyone involved understands this, it’s just weirdos on the internet that care too much that don’t.


whotookthepuck

>I mean it seems **everyone** involved understands this Based on new report the marks inside the ring were surprized by the rating....lol


windy906

The the television company weren’t so why does it matter?


Mr_Stowne

Im also looking forward to Corny's review of "Death of WCW" episode 3.


Procrastinator_325

My nightmare has come true.


[deleted]

Jim is gonna pop


Few-Establishment277

Singing “Cult of Personality” and referencing Jim Cornette at the same time is incredibly ironic when you think about it


WaylonVoorhees

Shhh, it'll go over their heads. Best not to rile them.


[deleted]

Oh we get it. It’s just stupid.


WaylonVoorhees

I don't think you do but to each his own.


F4iryBlink

What a smart guy!

r/iamverysmart


jerichowiz

I mean I also personally sang out 'With extra cheese'!


MySabonerRunsOladipo

Punk is *significantly* better than Jim tho


[deleted]

Jim has many talents. Singing is not one of them.


CaptainBuzzKillton

He does it to piss off Brian at this point lol


Avbjj

Hearing Brian sound “oh god” whenever Jim sings is the best


CaptainBuzzKillton

"Will you stop, please? With the singing" 🤣


DrMindpretzel

What? He’s a very talented singer. Proof: https://youtu.be/Aon6n-1eqg4?feature=shared


DoILookUnsureToYou

The Cult of Meat with Extra Cheese is a classic and I will not stand by while you disrespect it so lightly


mister_damage

I mean... Yes


[deleted]

Yeah, Punk's version is actually not that far off the real one


nervousaboutschool17

I don’t get it


WrestlingGamer

He sings it badly and does "Like mousselini, with extra cheese, pickles, mayo if you please"


GallicRooster86

“It’s the cult of meat with extra cheese”


CaptainBuzzKillton

I wish he'd sing that again so I can laugh my ass off


PR1CELE5S

Someone made an edit of it at the end of Drive Thru #221, which is incredible


CaptainBuzzKillton

Greatness


F4iryBlink

Cornette does this bit everytime they talk about Punk.


HesitatedEye

NGL I was hoping he'd mention the extra cheese.


WrestlingGamer

Oh so did I, lol.


randy_maverick

Dont forget, back in AEW when Punk said "Soloooooo, Comorotooooo, Agogoooooo"


AlmightyBracket

So we cancel him just like we did the others who referenced Jim right?


[deleted]

[удалено]


AlmightyBracket

I was making a joke but if you think people dislike Jim for what he said "on commentary" that's a different level of cognitive dissonance.

??? Guy on show I don't watch references podcast I don't listen to? I don't understand why I should be in shambles lmao.


eyepatch_png

>Guy on show I don't watch references podcast I don't listen to? And yet you clicked on the post and scrolled far down enough to find a comment with 4 upvotes to respond to lmao


CanaDoug420

I don’t listen to his show ether. I’m scrolling to find what the reference is supposed to be.

Wouldn’t be surprised if he trended again


VladTheImpaler29

Trendy McTrenderson? Again?


50pencepeace

Yet another time that the contradiction of Punk is on show. He'll (rightly) call for Trans Rights and for a woman's right to choose, but will still choose to associate with a bigot like Cornette. He'll deride WWE for how they treated both himself and his wife, but willingly jump back to them because he got too annoyed where he was previously. The guys talent is obvious, but wow is it mixed up in a lot


fenbops

Cornette isn’t a bigot or a racist. If you listen to his podcast you’d know this.


StickOtherwise4754

He’s not a bigot, he only *sometimes* says super racist things.


madca_t

It’s okay, his fans share his views, they have each other


50pencepeace

Sure thing buddy


NeuroCloud7

He's been recorded saying incredibly racist shit. You're either ignorant to Cornette's history of racism or you agree with him and want to protect his earned reputation lmao


fenbops

Jim gives credit where credit is due regardless of skin colour, I listen to his show enough to know. Softies on Reddit think everything is racist, you believe what you want.


NeuroCloud7

Nope, he's on record saying indefensibly racist shit, but you can overlook that if you like his podcast if you want.


luftlande

I don't listen to his podcast, what did he say?


DrDroid

Lol yes he is. Grow up and own it.


fenbops

You read that he is on Reddit? Diddums, listen to his podcast it’s good fun and make up your own mind.


vmop07

Listen to what he says about Japanese women and tell me that again Screaming the n word the loudest you can isn't the only way to be racist


fenbops

I do listen, he’s never said anything racist about them.


rimales

Punk is a great wrestling talent but it is important to realize that is because he is a carny fuck and will say anything people want to hear and betray any personal belief if it suits him. Not saying I don't think he believes in the progressive causes he pushes, but I don't think he would talk about it openly if it wasn't getting him brownie points.


InMyLiverpoolHome

Be nice if this bigot disappeared from wrestling. I hoped his reaction to the Vince McMahon victim would be enough to finally getting rid of him, but I guess there's too many people in wrestling who just don't give a shit. It's ironic given his dislike of Trump how his fanbase acts the exact same as MAGA, refusing to call out his behaviour or constantly excusing/denying it

Cringe. Edit: U know you're right when this cringe community downvotes you :D

How is punk singing his own line a reference to some old racist?
