Jim Cornette is split when it comes to AEW star PAC's in-ring abilities. The veteran believes that while the latter's physical work is top class, he becomes too dodgy when he attempts to dive.
PAC has been an integral part of the AEW roster since the promotion's inception. He had some memorable bouts against top stars like Hangman Adam Page, Kenny Omega, and Orange Cassidy.
In a recent episode of Jim Cornette's Drive-Thru podcast, Cornette expressed his honest opinions about PAC. The wrestling veteran praised the star's physique, groundwork, and match psychology.
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
However, Cornette criticized him for attempting dives from the top ropes, which made him look dodgy. He believes that the former WWE Superstar doesn't need to try such moves as he has a "real man's body."
"PAC... His physique and his ground work, his mat work, his physical work in the ring looks great. His Psychology is caw caw and every time he tries to do these dives or go to the top rope or whatever…. He’s got a real man’s body. He doesn’t have to do the dives. But every time he starts to do that, it comes off either contrived or dodgy or whatever… There is always something that he is doing and you think “ This is one of the greatest wrestlers in the world” and three minutes later “I’ll kick this guy to wrestling school.” same guy!!!" said Jim Cornette.
