Jim Cornette Responds to Joey Ryan’s “Test of Strength” to Mick Foley

August 6, 2017 | Posted by Jeremy Thomas

– Joey Ryan found another victim for his “test of strength” and as you may imagine, Jim Cornette isn’t pleased. Foley appeared at an Over The Top Wrestling show on Saturday and tried to use Mr. Socko on Ryan, only to find it blocked by Ryan’s famous genital flip maneuver. Cornette, who isn’t a fan, was asked about the match and said he was “sad” to see Foley working with Ryan.

The video and Cornette’s responses are below. Ryan and Cornette have had a history of animosity, particularly over the Test of Strength. Back in 2015, Cornette was asked about the move on Twitter and said “from pic [Ryan] appears to enjoy standing over men w/his dick in their face.” Ryan responded at the time and called the comment homophobic.
