Throw marko stunt on my list as well. More or less anything that makes wrestling look phony That’s about 90% of wrestling period and has been that way for a long time

WCW's handling of Ric Flair's late career. Rewatching WCW's Nitro run made me realize just how much they screwed him up. He didn't need to carry the company but he was still a star to their fans and could absolutely go. He and Goldberg were the two highlights during the last two years and they rewarded him by humiliating him every chance they got. Seriously, he made him/Charles Robinson vs. Madusa/Macho Man entertaining.

Just all the unsafe crap workers do. Made even worse if I know they’re not at least going to collect a big paycheck out of it.
I love Dynamite Kid matches and what have you, but if it meant another guy would never suffer brain damage or some other severe injury again, I’d be fine with everyone doing comedy matches where they barely touch each other.
I’ve been a fan for as long as I can remember and the camp value of the WWF in the 1980s is what made me a fan to begin with.

I assume this means you won't be referring to Joey Janela as "Jelly Nutella" any further? Huh, I honestly didn't know that was a body thing. Just insulting soundalike words. Did Cornette mean it to be a bodyshaming insult? I'll admit I didn't know about this. I still don't like Janela though...please understand that.

Vince McMahon and his legacy of ruin. With the exception of a relatively few people, he has had negative effects on most of his roster, whether it be career or personal, if not both.

The Rock bullying announcers. This sucked for a few reasons. First, Rock was a babyface, and this was totally unnecessary (it would have worked better as a heel). Second, there’s no way to get an angle out of this. Kevin Kelly or Johnthan Coachman were never gonna have matches against The Rock, so what’s the point? Third, it was usually unfunny, just Rock throwing around a bunch of gay jokes at the announcers. I know the character Hulk Hogan was shite to his friends, but at least they pretended he was some virtuous superhero. Rock was an even more abusive babyface.

As a spinoff, when someone from another company was jobbed out or misused so obviously just because they were from a non-WWF/E company. Even NXT gets this prejudice.

The "jelly" part is because JC thinks Joey lacks muscle definition.

Closest to a body insult I ever used was on the other end of the spectrum, as it were... remembering him as the skinny dude with the pogo stick when he was a rookie at National Wrestling Superstars (which Janela won't mention...called it "backyard wrestling" but don't recall the name "NWS" being spoken by him in his own retrospectives. The company...well, it's kind of taboo unfortunately since certain other wrestlers "outed" the NWS owner for things that may or may not be true...).

Pretty much all celebrity involvement. The horrible, unfunny skits and wooden dialogue. It’s embarrassing.
Too bad they decided to make their entire product like that recently.

I always thought that was an idiotic insult about him being jealous of Cornette for some reason (since "jelly" is the slang kids use for jealous). It being an idiotic insult about Janela's body type is even worse.
Speaking of cringe, Jim Cornette is absolutely cringe for me.

I am one who hasn't totally thrown JC out with the bathwater yet. But yeah some things come out of him that I'm like "easy now..." To say the least. With recent events, can I throw in any time I see ACH or Big Cass and Twitter in a headline? (nZo less so...I know he's eccentric but mostly harmless. Ryback I just like to riff on)

I have an "Andy" from Hollywood, California on the line. He thinks you must have no brains and be from MAMPHIS, TEN-NUH-SSEE. (yeah I know, you mean modern examples with celebrities...)

Some of my own thoughts when I get a good shot of Ricochet's ass. And do not get me started on Darby Allin, you would cringe yourself right into the nuthouse.
