Former Wrestling Manager Jim Cornette and Wife Accused of Wildly NSFW Behavior and Hot Tub Parties With Wrestlers
By Michael Luciano
Jim Cornette, a manager and occasional wrestler who had a brief stint with the WWF in the 1990s, now risks seeing his entire career come crashing down after some heinous abuses of power have been unearthed.
Cornette, owner of a somewhat popular podcast, has been accused by wrester Phil Earley of being a cuckold that forced up-and-coming wrestlers into performing sexual acts with his wife Stacey in exchange for contracts and appearances on TV.
I made a very vague post yesterday about @TheJimCornette.

In the face of current events I feel the need to clarify and speak up.
During my first year in the business, his wife, Stacy, attempted to groom me. /1
Earley also posted screenshots that Stacey sent to him and friends of his that show her topless and asking wrestlers for sexual favors pretty directly.
Fellow wrestlers have confirmed Earley's stories, with Iain Moore calling the whole ordeal "100 percent legit."
This is 100% legit.

Cornette claimed in a since-deleted tweet that he and his lawyers will be discussing actions against Earley while alleging the entire thing is made up. While Stacey has since deleted her facebook, screenshots of what she sent remain online. She has also accused Earley of making the whole thing up.
This should probably be the last we hear of Cornette for the foreseeable future given how grotesque this whole thing is.
