You think he's holding up McMahon for $200k for the hall of fame induction?
EZE "The Game Hunter"
It was my 1st thought when i heard the news!
you clearly dont know how the hof works in wwe. when you go in you have to sign wwe contract similar of a legends contract. and the appearance itself is 10k. look it up
Glorious Universe
Makes sense
Holding up McMahon for money? If you're referencing that 1999 Intercontinental match at a PPV, JJ was in his right to ask for more money because he had bargaining chips. Don't drink the koolaid, man.
😂😂😂😂
Double J broke a thousand guitars and never drew a dime. Mike Graham said so.
DuckTalesWooHoo1987 *6000
And who the fuck is mike graham
Lmao as if Mike Graham was such a huge needle mover himself.
@@kevinhenry4047 his dad, Eddie Graham, was tho
In the category of hell has frozens over again.🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😅
It would be cold day in hell if jim cornette gets inducted
Jim Cornette for the Hall of Fame
Corny and the Midnight Express need to be in the HoF.
People here forget WWE owns WCW, therefore owning Jarrett's history and accolades in WCW as a solid main eventer and WCW champ. I like him, dude's well-rounded.
Credit where it’s due, JJ was always a solid hand in the ring and could scrape a decent match out of just about anybody. But he was never main event marterial, it was a mistake to make him WCW champion and TNA didn’t start to flourish until he stepped way to the back. And on that note, at the time WWE mended the fence there was a real possibility of TNA dissolving and they probably hoped he could be useful in acquiring the tape library for the Network. Never happened.
BS.
Vince mcmahon best attribute is that he never holds a grudge.
WWE Hall Of Fame formula:
Main Eventer
Tag Team
Woman Wrestler
Mid Carder
Manager
Celebrity
Christopher Potempa forgot two a international star from Japan or Mexico that been in the WWE for a hot minute and someone who passed away
you got it wrong! its:
dead wrestler
woman
minority...even though said person is a killer
celebrity
who ever answers the phone
Dont forget the Warrior Award
Who gives a fuck, who they are, it's a honor to be in the Hall of Fame. Let them induct Jeff Jarrett. He has a stellar career that goes back to the 1980s, and his father was a promoter and he is third generation wrestler.
Also can be tied to a murder. IE, Carlos colon
Jeff Jarrett deserves to be in the H.O.F. He has been a champion everywhere he has been. Cornette deserves to go in as well.
Jeff Jarrett aka Aint I Great,Mr.TNA,GFW Owner,Double J,and The Chosen One now he's in the Hall of Fame well done sir.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I tweeted to Jim that Hell must be a block of ice right now
Hell has officially frozen over! Jeff Jarrett in the WWE HOF! NEVER thought I'd see it!
It's all just politics. Literally and figuratively.
Jeff Jarrett is a for sure hall of famer. Hands down, deserves it. One of the best
Depends how legit you want it to be....wwe HOF is a joke.... it a legitimate one JJ should be nowhere fuking near it
@@jonjohnson1978. He should be more in it than all those fucking celebrities that are in it. At least Jeff made an impact and he is one of the most known Intercontinental Champions.
@@MrBeckenhimselfhe’s only known because he lost to chyna he was shite
@@MrBeckenhimself he didnt make enough of a positive impact on the ratings nor did he draw money worthy enough of a HOF induction though.....99% of the celebrities i agree with...Tyson and Mr T I'd argue were worthy inductions rest I'd need convincing on
@@MrBeckenhimselfhe didn’t draw a dime
how odd..... all the bad blood between The Jarrett family and WWF/WWE McMahon's Jeff was never used properly in the WWF either time (Why isn't Owen Hart, Brain Pillman, & Luna Vachon in the hall of Fame) not that it means anything but, those 3 deserve a lot of respect and a spot light on them for what they sacrificed for Pro Wrestling......
Duckman 1979 because Jeff was not good!
They've been trying to get Owen but his widow doesn't want it.
@@crazyjim9380 owne did get inducted into anothr wrestling hall of fame she just wont let him go into the wwe hall of fame
Is Vince going to allow anyone to mention TNA?
he let kurt angle do it
Corney is one of those people who is so obviously deserving yet still overlooked, cough miss elizabeth cough .... He is a legend and has always cared more about the history of wrestling, and the boys. More than he cares about towing the company line.
WWE HOF has NO meaning, Jim should be glad to not be embarrased to get into something Trump is in.
Miss cough Elizabeth cough isn't cough deserving cough at cough fuking cough all
IMO-he deserved it. Whatever else can be said, JJ has had a prolific career both as a performer and a promoter. NWA, WWE, WCW, and then went on to start his own promotions, one of which had a short but prominent run as the only other real competitor to WWE in its time. And there were good reasons for WWE to mend the fence; they own WCW’s library, which means they own a big part of his career. For Network content, he has plenty to offer in terms of interviews and commentary on WCW. And at the time they inducted him there seemed to be a real possibility that TNA/Impact was going to totally dissolve, and they probably were hoping he could be useful in helping to acquire the tape library-again, for the Network, even if that ended up not happening.
Hell indeed has frozen over.
Corny Deserves to be in the hof but ill bet they r waiting till he passes would be like the wwe to do that
Who is Last talking about? Who has gone through rehab, been given a HOF induction, then relapsed and gotten fired?
Scott Hall and Jake Roberts have been just fine. Road dog and Goldust are still employed.
The WWE is terrified to give him a live mic.
I think I'm starting to enjoy when Brian goes off on a rant even more than when Cornette does it.
This was the first time WWE has shocked me since the pipebomb. My guess is that this is a thank you for Jeff keeping Russo around despite TNN ordering them to have nothing to do with that piece of s*** which ended their only massive push to being a legit #2 to WWE. Either that or a big thank you to being their only successful developmental fed between the heyday of OVW and NXT.
Never drew a dime
You sure you want to put him in with Triple H?
how about a nickel?
He drew way more than a dime. Especially in wcw and his own company
TNA
But he did break 6,000 guitars.
Double J doesnt deserve it. He was my channel turner in the 90s. If he was on WWF, i was watching WCW. IF he was on WCW, i was watching WWF
Jarrett ending up singing with Road Dogg haha
Soooooooo, they are going to have Kurt Angle and Jeff and Karen Angle/ Jarrett in the same room together for a couple of hours together. Yeah, Corny needs to be there for that. As for Jarrett being inducted, I wouldnt say he deserves it but he was a player in both The Attitude era and the Monday Night War. Not a huge player but he was a champion of some sort during the whole thing. He founded TNA, and brought stars like AJ Styles and Samoa Joe to national stages, as well as giving another alternative to WWE and work for wrestlers that had left WWE. His ring work was so-so. His promos were dull and formulaic. Most of his feuds were boring. Then again, Koko B Ware is in, so congradulations Double J.
I was kind of being sarcaastic. I know they have been around each other many times since due to Kurt and Karen having children together, I was making a silly joke is all.
Jim would Shit if Jeff asked Russo to induct him!
Jeff Jarrett is palpable. That's literally is the only thing I have to say about him
Not Overwhelmed neither underwhelmed. I am merely whelmed.
Hey Koko haven't seen you in a while hall of fame. Lmao
i wonder if they will mention how he founded tna
Raziel Faustus they not probably the main focus is his WWE and WCW career
yea it would just be hilarious
I seriously doubt it.
No,on their official video announcement they ended with him working in WCW(which they now own) in 2001. The say he’s doing something else now
thalrg22 wwe owns wcw, Memphis wrestling, and most of the companies Jeff Jarrett worked for other then TNA. Who knows they mite mention it.
Brian ain't wrong.
While I certainly think Jeff deserves induction, there were others who should have been considered ahead of Jarrett.
I've always liked Jeff. Early days and in WWF as IC Champ. WCW bleh. Glad he refused to job to Chyna...Slapnuts.
The only reason why Jim cornette isn't in the hall of fame is because of beaver face Dunn
and up next is Ole Anderson XD
yep.
or the fact he'd tell vince and his family to go fuck themselves and will refuse to go in
Ole speech would be "this show is the shits" then walks off. all he needs is 2 minutes.
I would laugh my ass off if Ole does do that. RATINGS!!!
Medication102: I'm still betting on a zombie Ole rising from the grave and trying to strangle Vince McMahon. Ole's such an ornery bastard even the Reaper would send him back.
Of all the potential candidates that people have wanted to go in to the Hall of Fame for years now... they go to Jeff Jarrett. No disrespect to Jeff, I just never saw that coming. Like everyone else. I never even hated Jeff as a performer or personality, I thought he was good for the roles he was given in the WWF and WCW, he had a lot of uphill battles to get over and stay over throughout the 90s. And I have to wonder who within the WWE has been behind a lot of these odd choices in the last few years but I'm leaning towards Triple H pushing for many of them being that he's so much of a wrestling historian. Vince's perspective of the wrestling industry outside his bubble is very skewed in his own favor but Hunter seems like he'd look at it a little more unbiased from a wrestler's point of view.
Alan Rizkallah Jeff Jarrett has a long career that spans to the early 1980's, he is a third generation wrestler, his dad was a huge promoter for mid South-Memphis wrestling, and he was very popular in the Attitude Era, he was way over and drew some money, and sold huge merchandise with his slap nuts T-Shirts and with his catch phrases and his over guitar, hitting people over the head with them. He wrestled for 4 major companies mid-South Memphis wrestling, CWA wrestling, WCW, WWE, and the founder of TNA. He deserve it alot. He has a 33 year career, longevity, stellar career, accomplishments, Rookie of the year 1986) AAA mega championship)AWA southern tag team champion 4 times,) CWA Heavyweight champion 1 time)
CWA/AWA international tag team champion 2 times)

⬆⬆⬆⬆⬆⬆⬆⬆⬆
If that don't make you hall of fame worthy then I don't know what will. Those are extraordinary accomplishments from meny territories, and 3 major companies, one happens to be the biggest company. And meny indy world titles. He does deserve this hall of fame career....33 year career is long enough.
Cornette gets inducted under one condition, Russo inducts him :)
suprcrzy in Canada
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Not
Hell and heaven would freeze over 3 times over if that happened
You know you wrong. 😂🤣
JJ never drew a dime that his daddy didn't spend...
A hall of fame museum would be so awesome
Cornettes laugh at 8:03
If Jim Cornette goes into the Hall of Fame Brian Zane his illegitimate son should induct him
Why attack the guy being in rehab tho? Wth that was out of line. At least Cornette has worked in the business 30+ yrs to truly hate what its become,if the co-host hates it so much then stop fucking watching it.
Dixie and her dad did save Jeff from going under because he nearly bankrupted the fucking promotion as well as allowing him to stay minority owner and make money there, but other than that, notta thing he needs to thank her for.
This is pretty shocking!
Wrestlemania match: Jim Cornette vs Vince Russo for a Hall of Fame spot.
The Jazzman book it!!!!!
it better say cornette gets paid more than russo.
HALL OF FAME RING ON A POLE MATCH! Book it.
Jim is technically already in as part of the midnight express (or rock n roll i get confused which one).
I mean if anyone deserved to be in the HOF its jim cornette. Hes been in the buisness forever. He has done everything in fron of the camera and behind the scenes. He has also managed some of the biggest names to ever do it. Why isn't he in the HOF?
Because the HOF is a bad joke
I know this is going to get me a lot of heat…….Next hell freezing over hall of fame inductee Chris Benoit……….
Jim cornette you need a new co-host mr last is brutal
Medication102 Hey Brian!
Medication102 who whines like a bitch and couldn't punch his way though a wet paper bag
Black American not African American
Jarrett's run as WCW champ in 2000 was totally awful TV. Russo's booking and Jarrett's work was so terrible that it lead to the end of the company..
Jennifer McCreath I agree...all WCW was was then 2 jackin each other off
I think Hulk Hogan, Kevin Nash, Eric Bischoff, Vince Russo, David Arquette, and Jeff Jarrett are all equally to blame for how God Awful WCW was from 1999 to 2001, and the downfall of WCW!
Hell will freeze over if vince russo goes in
This is the one I waiting for
All I have to say is ASSUME JEFF JARRETT POSITION!!!!!!!!!
Why do people keep saying hell has frozen over? I mean they had heat or whatever but this is nowhere near as imlrobable as the Ultimate Warrior or Bret Hart coming back.
Also he sucked. Seriously.
Every year McMahon puts at least 1 person in simply for shock value. its become a staple at the event. the "WHO WILL VINCE BURY THE HATCHET WITH THIS YEAR?" spot goes to Jarrett. Obviously it's not a legit HOF but Jarrett technically deserves to be inducted. At some point Cornette will fill the same spot, and when they're really running out of name to fill that spot, in goes Russo.
Raven falls under that shock value category too especially considering his lawsuits against WWE and Vince's hatred of Raven. Raven is also another wrestler also deserves to be inducted on their career in Pro Wrestling.
When goldberg was announced I tweeted: #JeffJarrettForHOF
Considering canada is a tax haven compared to the US according to some corporations....its not as unlikely as you might think to happen some day
My guess is that Road Dogg will put him in
Chuck Taylor in my opinion it should be his dad Jerry Jarrett or Jerry Lawler even Jim cornette
Coulda been worse. Imagine Vince Russo getting inducted.
If you don't agree with roughly 95% of what he says, Cornette has a problem with you too.
Oh the bitterness is strong from JC.
the WWE hall of fame is a joke
tgbl go away heat
whats the name of the guy jims talking to?
Matthew Perez Brian Last.
I am sure Corny will be in one day. Probably within a few years and possibly while WWE is near Corny territory.
Possibility Corny inducts Jarrett
Stephen Blizzard road dog or Lawler will induct him
Either one of those would make sense. I would probably lean towards Lawler out of the three, simply because of their history
Stephen Blizzard if it were my promotion, I'd get Lawler too. But Brian James has some pull now.
P Somniferum good point. If they're playing the political backstage b.s. especially. At least if that's the route they go there is history there
Guys the reason he isn't in is because he always buries and burns bridges when he leaves
Ain't he great
Jeff Jarrett deserves to BE in the Hall of Fame
Why? Why!!??!! Before Owen Hart?! Ffs ill be in the HOF in a few years at this rate.
Owen's widow won't let him be inducted.
Owen can't go in without permission from his widow. She refuses to have anything to do with WWE after his death.
considering Martha still doesn't want nothing to do with the WWE
almost everyone will go in before Owen.
Pisto75666 Unfourtantely no
Pisto75666 it's Bret''s group sure but Owen's widow has the rights to his likeness and she won't allow it regardless she'd probably sue the WWE and Bret if they tried to include him most likely the Hart Foundation would be as a tag team with Bret and Jim Neidhardt only Davey Boy either by himself or with Dynamite Kid as the British Bulldogs and Brian Pillman by himself
Midnight Express in New Orleans with Bill Watts inducting them..... Just Saying
is Jerry Jarrett in there? Now HE deserves it... Jeff, eh, not so much... then again, the fucking Godfather/Papa Shango/Kama the Supreme Fighting Machine is in there, so... (shakes head and throws hands up in the air)
Tony's Fishing, Gaming & Guitars so the godfather doesn't deserve why? He has been wrestling since 1988, and was apart of the wwe biggest era and he was over and became a household name. He has had a long pro wrestling career...1988-2003. He made a impact with his gimmicks, papa shango was over. Godfather was huge back in the day. Why you don't think he doesn't deserve it is beyond me. You don't have to be a extraordinary technical wrestler, or a spot fest wrestler to be inducted, its contributions and accomplishments and being over or drawing and just a long career. And the fans loved him back then.
If Cornette is saying to not be negative.......damn, you must pretty damn negative. I like Jeff Jarrett in the HOF. We all know that the WWE HOF is not on the same level as the Cauliflower Alley Club as HOF status goes....hell, it's not even up there with the WON HOF. And I'm simply saying that because those two HOF are specifically meant for inductees that had great careers in pro wrestling in one way or another or contributed to the pro wrestling business. The qualifications for one to be inducted into the WWE HOF is mainly about popularity. We all know this. The Godfather got into the HOF, but not as Charles Wright or his other characters....he got in as The Godfather. This is because that character was popular enough during ARGUABLY the most popular era in the history of the Capital Wrestling Corporation/WWWF/WWF/WWE. But if we are to judge on "credentials", as well as overall ability, Jeff Jarrett is much more qualified to be in a HOF than the Godfather. However, as we all know, the WWE HOF is mainly about popularity, not overall skill or contribution. Another qualification for the WWE HOF, specifically during the last 5-10 years, is having overcome some sort of PUBLIC life struggle. Specifically those individuals that had overcome their struggle with assistance, whether through finances and/or resources, from the WWE. Over the last 5-10 years, there seems to be an inductee that fits this description as well. And that makes sense because the TYPICAL wrestlers being inducted at the moment are performers from the 1970-2000 era that were part of that era that had issues with substance abuse and alcoholism. People love a redemption story. And WWE knows that.
WON HOF is no different than WWE HOF its both used for publicity purposes. why else would Meltzer put a wrestler who is 35 years old in that is still active on tv.
OLE SammyOLE i know. That's why i said it the way I did, that it was definitely no cauliflower alley and not even up there with the WON. The WON is at least a HOF that journalists and fans get to pick. It feels more like a true HOF based on accomplishments, rather than popularity. Meltzer is not the only vote for the WON HOF also. If the majority of journalists and fans did not think that 35 year old was worthy, he wouldn't have got the votes. And are you referring to AJ Styles? He's 40, not 35. The real HOF is the Cauliflower Alley Club. The George Tragos and Lou Thesz in Iowa is as well. I mention the Cauliflower Alley Club version due to it's history, plus it's ran by wrestlers. In my opinion that is the one that matters the most. The Tragos/Thesz HOF is gaining some credibility. The WON is just a more credible version of the WWE HOF.
Dave S okay then stone cold had great accomplishments and Shawn Micheals also, I'm sure they would beg the defer on your assessment. Stone cold has said he is honored to be in the WWE Hall of fame, alot wrestlers want to be in the wwe hall of fame. Why down grade it. Those other hall of fame that Dave Meltzer is apart of didn't even want sting in there hall of fame, and he has a long stellar career with great matches and world titles and accomplishments. I'm glad wwe honoured him and saw his accomplishments, WWE is also about accomplishment and a stellar careers and contributing to the company. Also wrestlers who made a impact and drew money and were legends. Everyone of those wrestlers in this class of 2018 deserve the Hall of Fame. Causel fans don't know what a cauliflower Alley club is or WON, they can careless, they want to see wrestlers they grew up with being inducted and people who they know. At least wwe honors them and gives them a huge amazing ring with real diamonds and a beautiful plaque and honors them. Those wrestlers feel very honored and genuine, they take it serious and want to make speeches. Alot of wrestlers want to be part of the wwe hall of fame. It's kind of a spit in the face of pro wrestlers like stone cold, shawn Micheals, ric flair when you down them and try to take those moments from them, becAuse stone cold has said on his podcast, I dont give a shit what people say about the WWE Hall of fame, I'm honored to be apart of it, its my hard work, blood,sweat, tears, that I put in that company and I'm blessed to be part of it, it's real to me. So meny amazing wrestlers. It's not all about publicity, thay mite want to honor them for there work and thank them. The speeches are always touching and they talk from the heart, its so disrespectful to down play the wwe Hall of Fame there apart of. To them it's real not fake. Why try to be so disrespectful towards the WWE because they want to honor wrestlers. And more people know of the WWE Hall of fame then those other ones, WWE allows causel fans and fans everywhere to be apart of it. A ball of fame is a special moment for wrestlers, taking it away from them because you think it's not legitimate and fake, to them it's real and a honor.
June giovani It's still not a true HOF. It's about popularity and selling tickets to the awards ceremony. Yeah, Stone Cold also does work fot the WWE so he is gonna say it's great. Look at all the pro wrestlers that would disagree with your statement about the WWF HOF. Also the WON HOF is very similar to the WWE's as it is not a true HOF. But since it is voted on by both fans and journalists, it is based more on accomplishments than popularity. Also, Dave Meltzer does not decide who goes in. He is one vote out of many. The Cauliflower Alley Club is a true HOF with a building that shows performers accomplishments. It was started by people in pro wrestling and they do not put people in based on WWE BIAS like the WWE HOF. The Tragos/Thesz HOF is very similar. Again true HOF because they are not based around WWE popularity and who Vince feels is worthy. The WWE HOF didn't even put Lou Thesz in right. They put him in with a bunch of other wrestlers in their old legends wing. As for casual fans.....this is a pro wrestling HOF, it is meant for fans of pro wrestling. Tired of this casuals argument. As for the drawing money part.....really dude. And it's not a spit in the face. Calm down. The WWE HOF is an event to sell tickets. And honestly I could say your comments about the Cauliflower Alley Club is spitting in the face of those wrestlers. Especially since the Cauliflower Alley Club HOF had been around 30 years before the WWE one existed.
Is it me or is Cornette getting soft? Seriously, this isn't even fun to listen too anymore. The last couple times he mentioned Shawn Michaels he didn't even tear him to shreds. This sucks.
Double J never held up Vince for money.
Speaking truth to dumb IWC lore. He was owed money, like all guys in WWE were, for PPV, royalties, etc...and his contract was up, but WWE needed an extra day, so he said "no problem, just give me what I'm owed...so I don't get shorted when I'm gone" That's not holding up...
yeah, it's annoying that people treat that rumor like it's fact
Sounds more like a deal, it was all money Jeff was owed by Vince which by the way did not hesitate handing over the money.
Jeff knew from being in the business, leaving the company his royalties may be slow to come in after he left. According to Bruce Prichard, he was negotiating a lump sum in addition to dropping the belt.
1. WWE could easily said no to the money Jarrett was owed. Then created a new IC Championship title and held a tournament for the new IC Championship title.
2. Jim Ross was in charge of Talent Relations at the time and it is JR's fault that Jarrett's contract ran out the night before the PPV (hence a contract dispute). It is also the booking's fault that Jarrett was still the IC Champion before the PPV.
3. Just like Madusa, Jarrett was the victim of being a champion in WWE and WWE forgetting who their title holders are and releasing their champion (Madusa) or letting their contract run out (Jarrett). Both had wait two decades before being inducted in the WWE Hall of Fame.
JJ=DELETE
#Gout #Baconator
Not one mention of his Tag Team Championship run with Owen Hart on that video montage they showed of him on RAW.... pathetic.
Congratulations to Jeff though, he deserves it.
Mick Paul they may have been worried Owens wife would complain
Thank Martha Hart for that
Jc slags wwe to the hills but yet is always begging for there attention! Hypocrite
Jim Cornette the " Vince Russo " of political commentary..
