Jim Cornette is not a fan of Mercedes Mone’s recent performances on AEW TV.

Cornette on Mercedes Mone:

“First of all put your f’n hands down!

Why she got her God Damn hands, we’ve seen the rings that spell out ‘money talks’ or whatever.

Put your God Damn hands down!

It looks ridiculous and unnatural…

Why are you standing that way constantly?”

“Secondly go to acting school!

Or thirdly, hire you a writer to write some…oh I forgot Alexandra Pepperday is writing this sh-t!

What the f***!”

“They spent money for this girl to do promos on this TV and she can’t talk.”

    This has to be the first time I’ve ever agreed with Cornette.

    @stezton
    Start actually listening to him and stop listening to what stupid people say he said. You’ll find yourself agreeing with him a lot more.

  3. DB says:

    Cornette is very much hit and miss. I’d listen to him on wrestling topics, but I will ignore many of his many ignorant views outside of wrestling.

  4. What? says:

    So far ring entrances and talking are about all we’ve got to go on. But yeah, it sounds like she’s been taking voice lessons from Fran Drescher.

    @Luke I could say the same thing about Vince Russo. People base their opinions of him based on what people like Cornette say about him more than listening to what he says.

  6. Luke says:

    @James
    What exactly about Vince Russo would you like to defend? Granted, people do base their opinions about him mainly on what others say, but when they do actually listen to what he says, it turns out most of it is true.
    Russo is a pathological liar with an undeserved sense of accomplishment and an overinflated ego based on the fact that he lucked out at one point in his life. He can’t talk, he can’t write, he’s not entertaining, he has no idea what makes the wrestling business different than other areas of entertainment.
    I say this not because that’s what Jim Cornette or anyone else says about him, I say this because I read his book, I saw his shoot interviews, and I read his recent “column” on WrestleCrap.
    Your turn.

    She’s a black woman, of course he’s not a fan.

  8. Joseph says:

    It’s about time someone pointed out that not only is she black, but she’s a black woman. It’s the only logical explanation for him being critical of her.

  9. Luke says:

    @Gau
    Good thing Samantha Irwin, Bianca Belair, Jade Cargill, or Willow Nightingale are all white men or he’d hate them too, right?

  10. John says:

    You would have to watch his content to understand why Jim is not a fan of Mones. Jim Cornette praised Jacqueline’s work. He liked Karma’s work as well.

    mercedes has been 100% perfect. She had the best debut and the follow up has been unmatched.
