Content Warning: Racism

[chazraps]

f***ing get this dude all the f***ing way the f*** out of f***ing here.

[Deleted]

WTF. Do they not edit these shows?

[Alyce: Old Media Enthusiast]

Might wanna but a content warning: racism on that.

That's not even a new Cornette-ism, I swear he's said that in the past.

That just cropped into my mind too

[Deleted]

Yeah, that was pretty offensive and should be noted.

However, I see the future and it's this thread being locked.

Strap a bucket of chicken across his back and ride across Ethiopia

No one can actually defend this shit right ?

Yeah, there is a episode of WCW from June 1989 on WWE Network where he says it when introducing Steve Williams.

Yeah I don’t see him surviving this one. Looking forward to the entertaining thread that’s sure to follow.

Should have stayed in 1998 and not repeated 20 years later

Every single person involved in that making it to air needs to lose their job.

This would be usually a time to post a funny response gif but naw can't even joke about that shit.

NWA better can his ass immediately if they wanna save any sort of face right the hell now.

Changed the title OP, people need to know what they're getting into on this one.

No worries.

[Alyce: Old Media Enthusiast]

NWA: We're so eighties we're even bringing back the overt racism!

I think that’s the biggest thing about this.

These shows were taped at the end of September/start of October.

It’s late November.

So nobody thought going through the episode and putting this footage together “Hey, you know what, this is a bad bad idea and we need to cut this out somehow”?

Let’s not just throw Jim under this bus, whoever was editing it, whoever uploaded it, whoever approved everything, all should join him under the bus.

What the flying f***, man.

[chrom]

Seriously and Corgan wonders why views for episodes are down and they can't get on a TV channel.

Yea, racism is going to give someone free reign to try to pick a hole. Na, it’s straight up in the title and it’s not an exaggeration of what he said

[BayleyTiffyCodyCenaJudyHopps]

I played this back five times just to confirm if I heard what he said correctly in disbelief.

It’s like he wants to sabotage his career as far as relevance.

[Oh Cry Me a Screwball]

Orange Cassidy, Joshi, and Kenny Omega not selling aren't going to kill the business, but overt racist jokes can actually kill your business. Get Cornette and whoever does the quality control out of here.
