"They were booing f*king s*tty-looking finish" - Jim Cornette on 4-time WWE Champion's recent AEW match
Several AEW fans took to social media recently to criticize some of the bouts that took place during the Double or Nothing pay-per-view. But, according to Jim Cornette, the finish to Chris Jericho and Adam Cole's clash was the one that upset the audience the most.
After brutally beating each other up throughout their match, Cole finally got the upper hand and initiated a beatdown on The Ocho. Referee Aubrey Edwards then ended the match, awarding Adam Cole the victory.
During the latest episode of Jim Cornette's Drive-Thru, the veteran speculated that even the crowd wasn't happy with the match's finish.
"The crowd booed because it looked so bad, the crowd booed the babyface beating the heel into submission until the referee stopped him! Have you heard about this before? They were booing the f**king s**tty-looking finish." (11:22 onward).

Jim Cornette criticized AEW for booking Adam Cole into a dangerous match
The Panama City Playboy suffered a concussion during his AEW x NJPW: Forbidden Door match, which quickly devolved into a career-threatening injury. For months, many fans wondered if he would return. This is why Jim Cornette believes it was irresponsible for him to take part in a hardcore match so soon.
Earlier during the same episode, Cornette questioned why Adam Cole was put in such a dangerous match after coming back from a near-career-ending injury.
"Adam Cole has just returned from almost a year out injured with concussions! And in the worst match in recorded history, heβs taken a chair to the head and fallen off the top rope!" (07:33 onward).
