Fans of wrestling collectively agree that The Jim Cornette Experience is one of the most entertaining podcasts right now. Its episodes feature an unapologetic Jim Cornette who at times goes on wild rants which are mostly hilarious, but sometimes controversial.
AEW's 2024 has been hit with an injury crisis, which has resulted in some of their biggest names being sidelined. Top stars like Eddie Kingston, Adam Copeland (FKA Edge), Adam Cole, and more are currently dealing with various injuries. Furthermore, former AEW Women's World Championship Riho had been absent for several months for the same reason. She made her much-awaited return a while back. However, in her match against Lady Frost, the Japanese star fractured her arm. She confirmed this news by sharing a photo in a sling on her Instagram profile.
In the latest episode of The Jim Cornette Experience, the 62-year-old wrestling veteran opened up on the Japanese star's recent setback and bluntly advised her to retire from wrestling as soon as possible.
"Poor Riho. Hopefully, she gets well and goes home and gets a job as a clerk or accountant or anything you do that doesn't require diving off s*it." said Cornette [From 04:03 to 04:15]

Jim Cornette previously called AEW a poorly run show
In a previous episode of his podcast, Cornette called AEW an unpolished program and said that Marko Stunt simply shouldn't be featured on their shows.
"It has certainly not been a low rent in terms of expenditure, but AEW has had, and this is not a compliment, an indie look. A low-budget look. A f***ing outlaw feel. An amateurish, parody-ish, tongue-in-cheek element to some of their programming since they have been on the air. And Marko Stunt was one of the poster boys of that, and they've learned nothing,'' Cornetter said.
Cornette was once a photographer, promoter, trainer agent, booker, and color commentator. At times, he even participated in in-ring action.
