"Looks like AEW's landed another Hall of Famer!" - Jim Cornette takes a cheeky shot at The Elite's ally for Blood and Guts

This past week on AEW Dynamite, a top free agent was announced as the partner of The Elite in the upcoming Blood & Guts match. WWE veteran Jim Cornette reacted hilariously to the news over on Twitter

The top free agent is none other than Kota Ibushi. The Japanese star has been lauded as one of the greatest talents of his generation, and he will now join forces with The Young Bucks, Kenny Omega, and Hangman Adam Page to take on Claudio Castagnoli, Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta, Konosuke Takeshita, and PAC in a highly anticipated Blood & Guts match.

Jim Cornette has been critical of several of the talents appearing in the match, including Ibushi. The legendary WWE manager had a hilarious reaction on Twitter after AEW announced that the former NJPW star was coming to Dynamite.

"Looks like AEW's landed another Hall of Famer!" tweeted Cornette.
