		Jim says that if he is unable to fill his two hour question and answer session, and might even read some poetry if for some reason he has nothing to talk about.
		Jim was asked about Randy Orton's reaction to winning the title and how it is not seen that often because of the way that titles are passed around, and whether the chase is missing.
		Jim took some calls and said that the greatest tag team that he managed were the Midnight Express, in any combination, and that the concentration on tag team wrestling is not the same today so teams can be created to become great.

		A native of Louisville, Cornette served as a photographer, ring announcer, and wrestling magazine correspondent from the age of 15 until in 1982, at 21, he received the opportunity to enter the managerial end of the profession.
		Cornette was added to the WCW creative team in 1989, and was responsible for formatting many of their television shows and pay-per-view broadcasts, including the two highest-rated TBS Saturday and Sunday evening programs in the last ten years.
		Jim currently serves not only in his OVW position, but also as a consultant to the WWE in finding new talent for their roster, and this is one reason that so many future prospects for the WWE grace the OVW roster.

	Jim Cornette - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cornette was at his best as a heel manager; fans loved to see the constantly-yelling Cornette and his equally annoying charges beaten and humiliated.
		Cornette joined the WWF full-time in 1996 after the demise of SMW, and had a major role in scouting and developing new talent.
		Cornette was suspended for several weeks in May 2005 as a result of a backstage altercation with Kevin Fertig, and released by WWE in July 2005 due to another incident shortly after returning from suspension involving assaulting OVW wrestler Johnny Geo Basco for breaking character and laughing at wrestler The Boogeyman.

	As I See It - 7/29/2002: A Famous Wrestling Son Returns a Mother's Lifetime of Support
		Cornette was often the butt of on-air jibes by babyfaces designed to get Cornette mad, including the time that the Rock 'n Roll Express brought out a picture showing "Mamma Cornette" as a dog in glasses wearing a blonde wig, or the t-shirts in SMW depicting her with a pigface.
		Cornette happily allowed her name to be used to get Cornette's character over for years, contributing greatly to the career of one of wrestling's best talkers, best managers, and most unique promoters.
		It seems sadly appropriate that Jim Cornette dropped wrestling for awhile to be with a mother who supported her son's love for the wrestling business for most of her lifetime...and his.

		Cornette's ironic prop - the tennis racquet, symbol of leisure - got more use in and around the ring than it ever got on the court - Cornette blitzed his wrestler's opponents with it every chance he got.

	OVW's Jim Cornette may lose his WWE job - GSN Buzz
		Cornette slapped Johnny Geo Basco backstage numerous times after Geo Basco laughed during what was supposed to be a serious scary angle.
		The general feeling of those who were there, as Cornette's actions were witnessed by dozens, was that he was right in yelling at the guy, because he had messed up a major angle, but the slapping couldn't be defended.
		Unlike with JBL, whose striking injured someone while Cornette didn't intend to or damage Geo Basco, Cornette was already on thin ice over a series of incidents, and was nearly fired two months ago for losing his temper on a number of occasions.

	Details regarding situation between Jim Cornette/Kevin Fertig in OVW
		At that point Jim Cornette, who is very old school and a true loyalist when it comes to the art of pro wrestling, sent word to the ring for Fertig to stop what he was doing.
		When Fertig reached the back, Cornette chewed him out big time and cut one of his trademark colorful promos about making a mockery of the situation when he was told to go out there and help others learn and improve.
		When word of this reached others, Jim Ross quickly stepped in and calmed the situation to see to it that Cornette was sent home for four to six weeks instead of something drastic.

		Cornette compliments Koko Ware, saying that before he lost his drive in the WWF, he'd have put Koko up against anyone in the business at that time, skill-wise.
