Jim Cornette is a legendary professional wrestling manager. His time with the Midnight Express in the 1980s is nothing short of magic.
However, in recent years, the professional wrestling industry has changed quite a lot from the industry that Jim was involved in and the former Ohio Valley Wrestling booker has never been shy about voicing his opinion on the current state of pro wrestling.
Recently, Jim Cornette commented on deathmatch wrestler, G-Raver, and a gnarly spot the wrestler was involved in at a recent GCW show. This led to a social media back and forth between the two, which then saw the wrestler release a shirt with Jim Cornette’s likeness on it. This did not sit well with Jim, who has threatened legal action via Stephen P. New, a lawyer regularly promoted on gems podcast. You can see all of the social media interactions between the two parties here:
That's a nasty little nick the guy got on his arm there at the end, if the fans were lucky they probably stopped the show so everyone could watch this idiot bleed out. https://t.co/vdlY9W5lYX

Hey @TheJimCornette , let me see you at a convention. I’ll spit in your fucking mouth. You’ve done nothing to me. Now you’re an advocate for death? pic.twitter.com/lrPjmPdiDH

You prob didn’t expect this “pro wrestler” would grab any attention whatsoever right? When you die from old age, I’ll be there to piss all over you. Can’t wait.

This is the height of absolute insanity, the equivalent of "I'm an idiot and jumped in front of a moving car and I want you to help pay for it." There are sick children, poor elderly people and abused animals who didn't bring any of that on themselves while acting like a goof. https://t.co/NwvXbx1MFX

Actually, I think you did a great job. My attorney @StephenPNew is an even bigger fan, so much so that you'll be hearing from him shortly. Thanks for playing!

No one said it was an actual death threat. That shirt violates the shopping sites terms of service as well as improperly appropriating my client’s likeness without his consent. He’s said his last about it. I’ve got it from here
