Ring of Honor officials confirmed today that Jim Cornette is officially on a sabbatical from the promotion.

Cornette reportedly had a blow up at the last TV Tapings in Belle Vernon, PA and was not scheduled to attend the Final Battle iPPV event. The blow up was described as usual Cornette frustration "but worse," where he expressed issues with problems outside the ring. Within the company, there was the belief that he was done and many within the company feel that he is was suffering from a burnout and had been for some time.

The decision was said to be amicable and noted it would become obvious soon enough since Cornette wouldn't be at the next event. Hunter Johnston (Delirious), the current booker who replaced Cornette in the role, will handle the production of television in his absence. At this time, there is no timetable for a potential return.

:cornette:

That's our Jimmy!
Probably for the best. I think Delirious will do a much better job booking it and they can get a more sensible producer behind the stage.

I wonder if Cornette would go back to TNA, since Russo is no longer there. No way would he end up back in WWE and there's nowhere else for Cornette to go.

I think TNA don't want him either. Bischoff is doing a good job as booker and Executive producer and look at TNA's current product, it has been great for most of 2012. No idea where Cornette will end up, god I hope he doesn't invade DGUSA.

Maybe he should just go back to doing podcasts (like he used to do with Who's Slamming Who with Tommy Fiero) and commenting on the current state of wrestling and stay out of actual wrestling itself. At least then we'd be getting some entertaining rants in the process.

He could start a dirt sheet or something.

He got in fights with most backstage and he had plans which weren't that good

I don't know any off his exact plans in the WWE but he got in fights with Russo, Vince, Triple H, Stephanie, Shane. Basically all the backstage people and at least half the roster.

He was running OVW and he had problems with John Laurantis, who he had to deal with on a number of occasions. But the final nail in the coffin was when he slapped Santino Marella seventeen times for not acting scared of the Boogeyman (Santino was a plant in the audience and merely laughed at the Boogeyman rather than act scared), thus making Boogeyman's whole act look silly. He was fired shortly after.

ROH will instantly get better, I know it. Not by a large margin, but enough.

As far as his future goes, I don't give a rats fuck. He sucks, he proved it billion times that he's a fucking mental blueberry, and I'll take Russo over him any day a week. And stay the hell away from DGUSA/Evolve or PWG. You've ruined enough companies, you fucking idiot. :cornette:
