Jim Cornette Baffled By WWE Not Using Female Star More

Jim Cornette

Jim Cornette doesn’t understand why WWE refuses to do more with one female wrestler in particular.

When it comes to wrestling legend Jim Cornette, he is known for being a man that isn’t shy about his giving his opinion on anything. In pro wrestling, Jim Cornette has done a lot both on screen as a manager that is considered one of the best talkers ever, an announcer and behind the scenes in many roles including as a promoter, booker and a member of WWE’s creative team for many years.

These days, Jim Cornette has a very popular podcast with Brian Last that are available on podcast networks all around the world and they have a popular YouTube channel with nearly 350,000 subscribers.

One current wrestler that Jim Cornette is a fan of is WWE’s Lacey Evans, who is seldom used on television these days. Evans is currently on the WWE Smackdown brand and has only wrestled on TV three times this year while also competing in the Royal Rumble as well.

During a recent episode of Jim Cornette’s Drive Thru podcast, a fan asked Cornette why WWE isn’t using Evans more these days.

“She’s great, she’s got the size, she looks great. She has the demeanor and the facials. She can talk like a b**ch. What a great heel she’s been. And then she disappeared again. And stop and start, back and forth. I don’t know. I don’t know what the problem has been, I don’t know why they have stopped and started this girl and gave her umpteen different personalities. It’s the most baffling thing I’ve ever seen.”

“She would be a no-brainer of anybody on the WWE female roster. Past Charlotte Flair and Rhea Ripley, Lacey Evans is the one that I would take next trying to figure out something to do with.”
