• Eugene Recalls Jim Cornette Freaking Out At John Cena

While being a guest on a recent episode of Chris Jericho’s ‘Talk Is Jericho’ podcast, former Ruthless Aggression Era WWE Superstar Eugene (Old School WCW Veteran Nick Dinsmore) was asked by Y2J if he had ever witnessed Jim Cornette freak out at someone during Nick’s time in Ohio Valley Wrestling.

Here’s Eugene’s answer:

“Oh God yes. They would always put Rob [Conway] or myself or Doug or Danny Basham in the main event because Danny taped TV like it was live, and he didn’t want to edit and didn’t want to stop, so one time Cornette tried [John] Cena against Randy [Orton] in the main event and counting down 30 seconds, 20 seconds, 5, 4.

They went over 2 minutes and 17 seconds, something like that. And I remember Cena coming back. It was a good match. He’s like, ‘Yeah, we did real good’.

Cornette’s like, ‘Goddamn 2 minutes 17 seconds!’ Gets his baseball bat and starts beating the windows in the building down from us but it’s an old building. Hitting his car. Randy was gone. He just left when he came back.

Every now and then it came out.”
