Seems as though Jim Cornette and Joey Ryan are battling it out in another war of words on Twitter yet again. Joey Ryan had retweeted a video Leon “Vader” White working stiff during his WWE tenure against Tim McNeany (enhancement talent). Vader had died in June 2018 from a bout of pneumonia following open heart surgery.

Give me Kenny Omega making his enhancement talent look credible and a threat over Vader taking liberties on a guy just trying to get a job. Thankful that the bully culture in wrestling has declined and that we’re evolving past it. https://t.co/fPe3L0O4Jq

Following this tweet, another user retweeted the post from Ryan which sparked the one and only Jim Cornette to respond in kind (so to speak).
Morning thoughts on Dick Boy: 1. A grown man using the term "bully culture" is a pussy. 2. He BETTER be glad wrestling's changed or his ass wouldn't be allowed in it. 3. There is Evolving and DEvolving. 4. @JoeyRyanOnline is an insufferable whiny douche & needs his pussy powdered https://t.co/IfdxXPbY0k

Joey Ryan responded by saying he was not dissing Vader in any way, but wanted to raise awareness on the affects of CTE, head trauma and brain damage.
The gentlemen he wrestled was in no place to cover up or fight back without getting heat on himself. Having numerous peers and colleagues careers shortened by head injuries, I’m thankful it doesn’t need to be this way anymore.

Vader’s son, who now runs the late Hall of Famer’s account, tweeted his thoughts on the matter, using Vader’s prior wars with the likes of Stan Hansen and Bruiser Brody for elevating his in-ring style.
Every1 has a spot on the card & @JoeyRyanOnline has his. Different flavors and maybe this isn’t his. When pops was green with AWA he was in the ring with Brody and Stan A LOT. Connecting the dots but Pops made his believable just like Brody/Stan did. Pops resume:13 WorldTitles🖖 https://t.co/1t1oYAFCT8

The enhancement talent involved in the argument, Tim McNeany shared his thoughts on the matter as well, putting Vader over as being cool to work with.
