Think I know what you mean. There was at least a few of those Coliseum Video tapes that had Dunn in parts of skits. Think he was mentioned by name at least once when doing some behind-the-scenes vignettes. They were on youtube but I can't find them.

This might get more eyeballs here...

 

On Best of WWF Vol 20 - Just before Hogan v Rude, that's Kevin Dunn in the skit arguing with Sean Mooney over the 'party', isn't it?

I know where this leads:

 

Parv is going to quantum leap into Sean Mooney's body (he has the ability but only into Sean Mooney for some reason) in order to stop Dunn once and for all so that Ric Flair could wear his robe in Fall of 1991 thus changing history for the better.

I know we're all freakin' nerds around here, but I really hope you've seen that recently and don't actually remember that obscure fact from almost 20 years ago :)

Don't worry Kelly - I was watching it Friday evening.

 

The teeth, the voice, Cornette's impressions - it had to be him!

Actually, I was referring to Strummer's 1995 Raw reference in the post above mine and not your original post. It was a much greater display of geekery

Not to sound like a wet rag, and this is not intended for anyone here specifically, but I think the IWC's "bullying" of Dunn has become excessive. Just because one of the IWC's "anointed" - Jim Cornette - said something "funny" about Dunn's teeth, everyone suddenly thinks it's okay to act like a major douchebag and make stupid jokes about Dunn. Again, I'm not picking on anyone in this thread or on this board in particular - I'm just tired of this really childish, boorish trend of "ha ha, Bucky Beaver, ha ha" because it's lame, unfunny, and beyond old at this point.

 

I love the hell out of watching Corny, but let's face it... He's a loud, obnoxious, foul-mouthed, Pepsi-swilling, drive thru-abusing redneck. His crass, infantile behavior is not something anyone should aspire to. More often than not, he's a piss poor ambassador for the sport of wrestling. There's a reason no major company (and many minor ones as well) want nothing to do with him. He's a catastrophic embarassment in his words and actions - and a complete liability to whoever makes the mistake of working with him.

 

Again, I love Corny, but if I ever lose my mind one day and decide to throw (away) a bunch of money into funding a wrestling organization, he's the last person I'd hire to be in the public eye. To be honest, even a behind-the-scenes role is something I'd be ambivalent about. His "wrestling mind" was great in 1985 and maybe even 1995, but times have changed and he hasn't changed with them.

 

Does Dunn deserve criticism for a lot of things? Sure, so why can't we stick to that? I don't think his looks or teeth are at all relevant. The problem is, "bucky beaver" - and hearsay - are what 99% of the internet use to attack Dunn nowadways. It would be really nice if we could get some legitimate discourse for a change about one of the most powerful and influential members of Vince's inner circle. There's a lot to discuss. His teeth really should rank at the very bottom of that list.

Yes, and he's head of something-or-other for TNA now.

 

I know this summer he was tweeting photos of signing talent to "multi-year contracts" and looking a lot like Vader's brother.

That's completely untrue.

 

Jim drinks Sprite! :P

 

 

That reminds me of some interview Bischoff did a few years ago where he said something about Cornette eating "too many Big Macs" or such. Jim responded by saying he likes Wendy's.
