Paige, Renee Young Say ‘Nah, We’re Good’ To Cornette On ‘Backstage’
The entire wrestling world is currently talking about Jim Cornette’s exit from NWA after cracking a rather untimely joke while calling a match. After a fan suggested that Jim Cornette talk about his controversial commentary on WWE Backstage, hosts Renee Young and Paige made it clear that they weren’t fans of the idea.
Lol hard no over here bud.

Meanwhile, Austin Aries, who developed a love-(mostly)hate relationship with Cornette when they both worked in ROH, enjoyed Jim’s public shaming from the comfort of his own Twitter feed.

PAC vs. Omega Set For Chicago Dynamite
One criticism of All Elite Wrestling so far has been its lack of focus on its Women’s division. AEW seems to be trying to correct course by announcing two Women’s matches in advance of tonight Indianapolis show. On next week’s Dark, new signee Big Swole will face off with Shanna. Tonight, Britt Baker will face off with former #1 Contender Hikaru Shida.
The female athletes of #AEW will see action this evening in Indianapolis.

While AEW fans ramp up for tonight’s Dynamite, AEW isn’t resting on its laurels. Already signed for next week’s Chicago episode is a clash between PAC and Kenny Omega. Can Kenny Omega reclaim his mojo in a rematch from All Out earlier this year?
