The heat between Jim Cornette and Vince Russo doesn’t seem to be going anywhere. It all started when Cornette took to the WWE Network special Table For 3 to claim that Russo has been emailing Vince McMahon regularly “begging” for a job back with the WWE. Russo responded on his podcast by inviting Cornette to come on the show and settle their differences.
Cornette then took to his own podcast, The Jim Cornette Experience, to respond to Russo’s request, but instead of taking him up on his offer he challenged him to a fist-fight with $5,000 on the line:

“But here’s the rules: no cops, no guns, and no knives and we both come alone. And what happens, happens. Nobody makes a dime off of it, nobody gets any publicity off of it, nobody’s even gonna know it’s gonna happen until after it happens when nobody hears from you anymore”
“So not only will I come to you, not only will I meet you in a neutral location with no cops, no guns, no knives — just the two of us. But I’m gonna have $5,000 in cash with me because I got that Vince unlike you. You don’t have to bring anything. You don’t even have to bring a ham sandwich. I’m gonna have $5,000 in cash with me and you can have it if you can take it away from me”
“But I’m making you a legitimate offer. I swear on my mother’s grave if you give me a date, a time, and an address I will meet you there and I will bring five grand in cash. As long as the rules are no cops, no guns, and no knives and what happens, happens!”
