CORNETTE GETS FIRED Posted: 112319
Sometimes Jim Cornette is his own worst enemy. During a recent MWA Power episode in the middle of a non-title match between NWA World Champion Nick Aldis and Trevor Murdoch, Cornette said Murdoch was the only man he has ever known that "could strap a bucket of fried chicken on his back and drive a motor scooter across Ethiopia." NWA spokesman David Lagana issued a brief statement on Twitter that read, "On tonight's episode of NWA Powerr airing on November 19th 2019, one of our talents made comments which some viewers found offensive. We deeply regret the error and apologize. We have temporarily taken the program down while we correct this error." The original episode has been pulled and a version without the comment is available now. According to one source this wasn’t the first time Cornette has said this. Jim Cornette has resigned from the NWA effective immediately.
