Wrestling legend Jim Cornette is never afraid to let loose on topics he feels passionate about, which is why he has lashed out at AEW over a recent championship bout.
The match in question was the recent AEW TNT Championship match between Powerhouse Hobbs and Wardlow, which ended with "Mr. Mayhem" becoming only the third man to win the title on three separate occasions.
Wardlow's victory ended Hobbs' reign at just 42 days, which might not be the shortest reign in the belt's history, but in many people's eyes, it seemed that Hobbs never really got going as champion.

Speaking on his podcast, The Jim Cornette Experience, the wrestling legend reviewed the match by calling it rotten and ridiculous, adding that Powerhouse Hobbs is now more meaningless than before he won the title.
“A rotten match, with a ridiculous finish, [Powerhouse] Hobbs is done as an attraction, he never got a chance. And the bad thing is they put a belt on him and somehow made him more meaningless after he won the title than he was before it because of the way that they put it on him, then they take it off of him in three weeks because it’s the other guy’s hometown.” [13:54 - 14:18]
Fans will hear from the new TNT Champion Wardlow and his new cornerman Arn Anderson this Wednesday on Dynamite.
