Cornette made offensive comments on Power but somehow it made air. Lagana is human but like I said Jay Cal I hope he doesn't get burn out. Cornette got to go, they had to take down the episode. He has become VINCE RUSSO. What episode would that be? Because all seven episodes of "Power" are still on YouTube.

It's Lagana fault HOWEVER Cornette said it. We live in a sensitive era and you have to be extra careful. Eddie Murphy apologized for jokes he said in 1984 because he knew social media will try to use it against him before his new movie came out.

You give power to the wrong people when you live by there PC rules. It's like the story of the little girl and the snake. They knew what Cornette was when they picked him up. Stop being pussies and move on.

The nude trunks and the kayfabe cocktail (in a culture that doesn't want "Baby, it's Cold Outside" played on the radio) should be far more offensive.

Who are the people offended by the remark? It was typical Cornette wit. Offense is taken by such an off the cuff remark but political "leaders" are far more offensive with remarks daily and it has become such the norm that it hardly even registers anymore. SMH.

It sucks because they should have caught it during the month's worth of post production before the episode saw air. It was a dumb thing to say and NWA should have caught it. Jim is gone when the whole thing could have been avoided.

Hopefully they can move past this.

Sad that the NWA has lost a great talent because of easily offended pussies

How did a generation that grew up on South Park get so offended by Jim Cornette?

Do Ethiopians even watch wrestling? (Sincerly apologize if anyone is offended by this question)

The remark was more of a stereotype than racism. Why didn't Lagana, editors and producers spot this remark beforehand? This whole situation could've been avoided.
As far the comment and reaction, I didn't find the comment that awful and it appears that there's a large portion of the audience pissed off that Corny resigned. I hope the NWA can move past this. It was just really getting started and had a solid sized viewing audience for what it is.

While I understand how traditionalist NWA fans want Cornette to stick around, but if they are trying to reach a larger audience Jimmy had to go!! You guys want the NWA to be bigger than a YouTube show sacrifices have to be made.

Losing Cornette is going to absolutely gut NWA Powerrr and the vibe and atmosphere they are trying to create. Dutch Mantell is the only person I think could step in for Cornette and maybe keep the momentum going.
