Thats the problem, Jeff has NEVER been popular. Noone pays to see Jeff Jarrett. Although he definitely can have a good match, he was just never likeable or hateable in any way.
Cant believe these idiots, here’s somebody who can improve the booking and the ratings, and theyre booing him? No wonder it’s a pigsty there, they Love the mudshow hahahahaha!
Jeff jarrett over kenny omega ANYDAY of the week. If jeff was in the top 10% of talent in TNA he is in the 2% top talent that AEW have. If jarrett coming in means he will book AEW then I'm all for it. TNA in 2007 is infinitely better than current AEW product.
@@emiliomarbanjr if he is solely invovled in the sting storyline for many months that is long and done properly and then he moves into the office thats a small price I'm sure people are willing to accept.
Mad how Jeff Jarrett has worked in AEW, CWA, WWA, NWA, TNA, AWA, AAA, GFW, WCW, WCCW, WWE, CWF, USWA, NJPW, Global Force, Ric Flair’s Final Match and Jim Crockett Promotions. The Johnny Cash of wrestling; “I’ve been everywhere, man.” 🎶
Well we will still need Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff before there is any saving that can be done for AEW but it was good start... No seriously though, wtf were they thinking bringing in Jeff Jerrett to that company?
Jarrett had to be champion in the early TNA days The roster was full of guys who had no experience working main event matches on t.v., young guys with no experience, and guys who were out of shape, on drugs or just didn't turn up every week. Jarrett was the only guy who could carry it then. The amount of matches he carries, give credit.
@@hiddensword9387 The problem were his matches were the exactly the same Jarret takes an unholy amount of damage, ref bump, kick to the nuts, guitar shot, stroke 7 fucking times and then Jeff Jarrett by pinfall
@@enigma_offixial No shit in one match he took finishes from 10 guys and then popped up and still won. How people can watch the reign of terror in TNA and still say he has a great wrestling mind are crazy.
Finally the last outlaw made it to the last outlaw mudshow! Honestly, JJ as an executive backstage is fine and would actually add a lot to the company, just keep him away from being an in ring worker while being that. Otherwise he might book himself to be in the main event.
Jarrett is a lot like HHH in that they seem to have a great mind for getting other people over, until they're booking themselves and then it's all about how other people can get them over.
H was always great! He'd win enough of the "feud" to make it meaningful when the other person finally beats him at the end.. how many ppl did he put over at mania alone ?
@@orangemaniabrother2232 Maybe, but the key difference is that not every wrestler has had the position that Jarrett and Hunter had during their respective reigns of terror.
Remember the movie “The Thing”, when the alien imitates it’s victims perfectly, but eventually reveals itself to be a monster? That’s AEW: It tried to imitate a wrestling company, but revealed itself to be a circus.
Oh man, I didn't even think about Jarrett's old lady. Christ, Jeff Jarrett is enough for me to change the channel immediately. His wife will make me quit AEW for a second time.
They fail to realise the audience you need, do not watch indie wrestling and RoH, New Japan and Impact. They watch WWE. They cannot get by with just sad act adults who wear sting t-shirts to their wedding. They need children to watch and their parents to buy their merchandise in order to grow. Absolute morons.
I was there. When Cole Karter took off the Sting mask you could hear a hamster fart in the arena. Weird thing was that Cole wrestled on the Dark Elevation taping just 40 mins earlier. That might be the main event tonight - there was a "Bray Wyatt type glitch" on the tron after The Factory's six man tag. I wonder if that had anything to do with Cole joining with JJ later.
If you were going to bring Jarrett in, the only on-camera position that I would've given him, would be as an authority figure. As Corny said, backstage I would make him head of talent relations and maybe even assistant booker. I don't personally need to see a late 50's Jeff Jarrett in a wrestling ring
He couldn't expect anything differently, that was like you or me under the mask , like wtf is that 😂 that was really bad , but it's AEW all over, they do that with the lights, to reveal some indie guy who wrestled in Japan
The best part of Jeff Jarrett's Debut in AEW was hearing His TNA theme that was awesome Hopefully Jeff Uses it in AEW because that song is awesome this was a great segment.
Bro, you are correct, he did write for TNA when they had their highest ratings. And I apologize if you’re just trolling, but you can’t be serious when comparing success within the industry. Russo had a fine run when playing with VKMs roster, but other than that not so much. JC’s longevity is why I’d give him the game/match/set…
The fact people need to dust off a comedy act from 1999-2000 in 2022 speaks volumes about the booker of the year. AEW is hiring all the guys I saw on TV back when I was in High school and college. 😔
damn i had my money on Chris Jericho turning AEW into ROH completely and then bragging that he singlehandedly got ROH a tv deal but looks like its just turning into TNA
Brian is right, when I saw Jarrett coming to the ring, I was like: " Damn, this is just like Impact now". I don't know what Tony is planning, but booking like TNA is the last thing company needs at its weakest point. And by the way, Jeff should've been the one who disguised as Sting in the 1st place. Carter kid should not be a part of big angle on TV at the current stage of his career.
The way he was dressed reminded me of the "Seven" gimmick of Dustin Rhodes in WCW, his promo reminded me of the "I'm the chosen one" promo Jarrett did in WCW ... this is PWG with a budget and some 2000 WCW storylines
There’s too many people in this company that should matter but don’t! Use the people you’ve got Tony, like an actual match booker, instead of salivating at the idea of a crowd pop that means nothing by the next week!
Brian nailed it. I've been an avid fan of AEW. As soon as I saw the guitar... immediate turn off. Between losing punk, the horrible booking, the 25 titles, and now JJ with his guitar shots, aew is losing its momentum.
The problem with AWE, is that they act like the public is their board of directors. We don't need to know everything about your actual business. I remember seeing Pat Patterson and Sgt Slaughter come out from the back as a kid and young adult (when all hell was breaking loose) and all I thought was they must just be advisors.. elder statesmen.. The actual twists and turns in the company should be for hard-core fans reading the Observer or listening to Cornette.. not a press release or Twitter.. and it definitely shouldn't come from Tony.. it should be "rumored" or some form of indirect leakage at times..
This one guy on Twitter had it right with this quote: "One day, when everything is nuked due to World War III, what will be left behind is Jeff Jarrett doing a Fargo Strut."
I once hoped that aew would be very successful and an awesome alternative to the other choices. I watched intently most every week. I still watch just not as intently. The funny thing is when I see things happen on the show I'm more excited about hearing what Jim is going to say about it then what actually happened in most cases.
Think of this card. Ricky Starks vs MJF vs Wardlow for the title. FTR vs Acclaimed for tag title Miro vs Hobbs for the TNT title Darby vs Pac for the Atlantic title. They're wasting such quality talent.
AEW has jumped the shark by bringing in Jeff Jarrett on TV. You can't come back from certain things in life. This is it for AEW. If Jeff was capable of making a wrestling company a worldwide successful entity, people would remember TNA as more than just the place that kept AJ styles away from WWE
when a wild slapnuts appears and you have PTSD from the last 21 years of tna/impact and you start having flashbacks, i feel like im in a fever dream lmaoooo AEW and WWE both did absolute 180s
As soon as I heard "Dan Tucker" I thought of Victor French as Isaiah Edward's from Little House on the Prairie. I uses to love that show when I was a kid. As for Jarrett, hope he does well.
This was the night where AEW transitioned from late WCW to TNA. Funny thing is, these 90s wrestlers like Jarrett and Billy Gunn have better physiques than the young guys. When the attendances start seriously dropping and they move into smaller venues (that happened 99 onwards to WCW) it will seriously affect the presentation and AEW will slowly begin to die. Watching Dynamite at this point I don’t know why Tony didn’t just buy ROH in 2019 instead of starting AEW. 50% of the show is ROH.
Difference is Tony Kahn isnt going to just give up owning the company, that is what people tend to forget about WCW ending is that it had NOTHING to do with ratings or money. WCW had its fans, still had ratings and still had money BUT the owner Ted Turner just decided to give up keeping the company and wrestling in general he was never a fan of while in turn taking the company off the air from HIS network.....THAT was what ended WCW. AEW has money, has ratings, has numerous networks which WCW NEVER had.
i laughed when the wild slapnuts appeared. I don't even mind that he's there. Its just entertaining if you know Jarrett's history. He's a living legend, like it or not.
“Body bags are coming” hahaha 🤣 lmfao reminds me of the karate kid “ get him a body bag” that picture of Tony is masterful artwork as well. Pure genius 👌🏻
From far away, Tony looks like a slim Bob Belcher in this graphic. Now I'm imagining him shooting ideas, as Bob when he's coming up with or trying to pitch a special of the day burger.
I think it's clear at this point, TK's "booking" mostly comes down to the following: - random cool matches like Shibata/Cassidy, - Moxley as champ/main event guy, - Jericho doing whatever he wants and trying to make it center stage even if it isn't supposed to be one, - the Elite doing somewhat whatever they want and trying to make it center stage even if it isn't supposed to be one, - Danielson staying somewhat aside from being like Jericho and the Elite and just putting guys over and picking his random cool matches/moments which make sense for an overall resume of someone of his caliber, - MJF rarely wrestling and mostly hyping himself up and talking about the bidding war of 2024, - frequent debuts of ex-WWE/indy talents to mask lack of interesting storylines going on, - frequent cameos of NJPW talent to mask lack of interesting storylines going on, - creating new titles whenever possible, - occasional or select few storylines that have a proper build-up and pay-off (Page/Omega last year for the title was something that had some feeling of finality or pay-off to it), - Sting/Darby doing their thing, - Britt Baker doing her thing, - Jade Cargill looking good and dominating but not moving anywhere up the card or doing anything really, - Eddie Kingston trying to be some more vulgar and more unstable but worse in-ring performer AEW version of Mick Foley/Terry Funk, - due to the overstacked roster, talented guys like Miro, Brian Cage, etc. always on the bench, - a whole lot of solid/good wrestling around all this, - no clarity as to who sits where in the hierarchy and where exactly they're headed - no clear differentiation between low-card, mid-card, upper-card, main event - everyone's a player in AEW. Basically, AEW is still operating like a start-up that's just trying to find its footing and right rhythm, still working out the same bugs, in their third year of existence. And maybe some of the issues grew even bigger as the roster grew, in 2019 when there were less people in the company, the chaotic, unclear nature of the pecking order was less visible. And the biggest problem is, by this point, TK has gotten everyone used to this chaos, while allowing everyone so much freedom and massaging the ego of so many people for so long, now they're used to being listened to and pushed. So now no one is going to acknowledge they might be overpaid, overpushed, or given way too much freedom, because everyone who got somewhat of a push in the past three years (which is a lot of people) now thinks they're either a shining star or a star just waiting to explode. And it seems almost no one including TK is actually doing the most important thing - putting the effin' company first and structuring the card and stories so the company prospers and grows, instead of everyone just looking at their own prosperity and growth.
Tony Khan destroying kayfabe by announcing that a guy who promised to put people in body bags is getting a promotion to an executive position in the office makes absolutely no sense. It suspends all belief. If the guy is that dangerous he cannot be in that position in the office. Edit oops I didn't realize corny was going to say the exact same thing LOL
Jarrett definitely has just as much of a temper as Punk, but I don't think Jeff Jarrett is going to go on camera and tell the journalists, reporters and EVPs exactly what he thinks of them, if only because he not only saw Punk do that already, but he saw Joe do almost the same thing in TNA. Samoa Joe ended up being right, of course, but it hurt him politically in the short term. And even if Punk is right, it has also hurt him, in the short term. Jarrett will likely be more subtle if push comes to shove.
I know who Cole Young (Mortal Kombat ) is than Dan Tucker aka Cole Carter lol The worse AEW gets, the better Travis art is. This is my favorite of them all. Tony’s coked out eyes 😂😂😂
I'm just angry that the announcers didn't yell, "A WILD SLAPNUTS APPEARS!"
The current state of AEW is like the last half-hour of Goodfellas. When Ray Liotta is just coked out of his mind and doing 10 things at once.
@Alan Asda 🤣 I was going to compare it to “Boogie Nights” when coked upThomas Jane and Marky Mark were plotting to rob Alfred Molina

Jim, your commentary is funny and on point. Your observations are laser accurate. Keep up the good work. 🙂
Maaaan, somebody clip Corny singin' "Ole Dan Tucker" and underlay a Fivestring Banjo! 🤣👍
Tony watched that Tales from the Territories episode then hired the wrong guy.
This one guy on Twitter had it right with this quote: "One day, when everything is nuked due to World War III, what will be left behind is Jeff Jarrett doing a Fargo Strut."
He does a good one
@@adrianalog he's used to bending over in that position for sure!
I once hoped that aew would be very successful and an awesome alternative to the other choices. I watched intently most every week. I still watch just not as intently. The funny thing is when I see things happen on the show I'm more excited about hearing what Jim is going to say about it then what actually happened in most cases.
Facts and I 2nd that emotion!
Instead of signing released “stars”. TK is now bring in JJ and …Cole?
A wild Slapnuts has appeared!
*Pokemon R/B Wild Pokemon Battle Theme plays*
Double J, Jeff Jarett!
ah i see you are also a man of refined tastes
Think of this card.
Ricky Starks vs MJF vs Wardlow for the title.
FTR vs Acclaimed for tag title
Miro vs Hobbs for the TNT title
Darby vs Pac for the Atlantic title.
They're wasting such quality talent.
Most of them will at least do well in WWE once this chapter of their lives is done.
AEW has jumped the shark by bringing in Jeff Jarrett on TV. You can't come back from certain things in life. This is it for AEW. If Jeff was capable of making a wrestling company a worldwide successful entity, people would remember TNA as more than just the place that kept AJ styles away from WWE
when a wild slapnuts appears and you have PTSD from the last 21 years of tna/impact and you start having flashbacks, i feel like im in a fever dream lmaoooo AEW and WWE both did absolute 180s
As soon as I heard "Dan Tucker" I thought of Victor French as Isaiah Edward's from Little House on the Prairie. I uses to love that show when I was a kid.
As for Jarrett, hope he does well.
Also Andy Griffith and the very young Ron "Ronnie" Howard from "The Andy Griffith Show" as well.😂🎤🎣📺B.W.
I wonder if Jim watched Little House. I can see him criticizing how Charles Ingalls put over an old man in a log sawing contest
@@bobdonda He would definitely criticize the Ingalls family for believing in God.
Edit- But Fred the Goat would get over.
"Mrs. Harriet Oleson" delivered the Heel Promos on the Show!😂😉🎤🤼♀️🤼♂️B.W.
@@madbrowniac7871 OH man, she was a great heel on that show. Garvey was a good big man, and he looked like an Anderson family member.
He's gonna wear a ton of black hats and will never draw a dime
Jim in a body bag is hilarious 😂
This was the night where AEW transitioned from late WCW to TNA. Funny thing is, these 90s wrestlers like Jarrett and Billy Gunn have better physiques than the young guys.
When the attendances start seriously dropping and they move into smaller venues (that happened 99 onwards to WCW) it will seriously affect the presentation and AEW will slowly begin to die.
Watching Dynamite at this point I don’t know why Tony didn’t just buy ROH in 2019 instead of starting AEW. 50% of the show is ROH.
Difference is Tony Kahn isnt going to just give up owning the company, that is what people tend to forget about WCW ending is that it had NOTHING to do with ratings or money. WCW had its fans, still had ratings and still had money BUT the owner Ted Turner just decided to give up keeping the company and wrestling in general he was never a fan of while in turn taking the company off the air from HIS network.....THAT was what ended WCW.
AEW has money, has ratings, has numerous networks which WCW NEVER had.
@@The_Knight_Rider1980 Even if it survives we know it will be nothing more than an Indy with money.
@@hakimdiwan5101 I got to be honest I enjoy it more than I ever did with WWE in the last 12 years.
Well they actually go to the gym.
@@The_Knight_Rider1980 I used to enjoy it before but now I'm just watching it for couple of guys and skip everything else.
i laughed when the wild slapnuts appeared. I don't even mind that he's there. Its just entertaining if you know Jarrett's history. He's a living legend, like it or not.
Having Attitude Era guys that can still go, is quite a plus.
As New Jack once said: "Jeff, you ain't never been over!"
Jeff is going to become the holder of the new: Gulf of Mexico Championship Belt.
Nicely done
Im loving Jarrett lately. He was on a couple indy shows I saw online.
Yes! J e double f
A wild slap nuts appeared
Brian is right. Jeff Jarrett being on AEW reminds me of TNA and just makes me want to tune out.
I am just glad we are guaranteed at least one more "A wild slapnuts appeared..." from markyd123
Never gets old 😅
The big reveal of the guy who nobody knew and the 17 angles in 1 segment were what reminded me why I don't watch wrestling that often anymore.
And then, A WILD SLAPNUTS APPEARED!!
“Body bags are coming” hahaha 🤣 lmfao reminds me of the karate kid “ get him a body bag” that picture of Tony is masterful artwork as well. Pure genius 👌🏻
For the promotion of Cobra Kai's newest season Tony brought in Sensei Kreese for Britt Baker.
Jeff Jarrett had the least intimidating voice in wrestling. He sounds like he’s offering you a refill on your coffee to go with your pecan pie.
I’m sorry but Bobby Lashley has the least imitating voice. His promos sound like NPR advertisements.
That's the wrong accent, but I agree his accent is probably a huge barrier for most people 😂
@@wilcee238 yyýý
@@wilcee238 nah Va-Jay Jay is the worst. Sounds like a bored barista from the south.
From far away, Tony looks like a slim Bob Belcher in this graphic. Now I'm imagining him shooting ideas, as Bob when he's coming up with or trying to pitch a special of the day burger.
The “Slapnuts Slider” perhaps? 😂
I am glad Jeff Jarrett is there. Maybe we can get a Ric Flair last match 2 lol 😭
Would love for Hogan to legdrop that gimmick stealing c***sucker!
I think it's clear at this point, TK's "booking" mostly comes down to the following:
- random cool matches like Shibata/Cassidy,
- Moxley as champ/main event guy,
- Jericho doing whatever he wants and trying to make it center stage even if it isn't supposed to be one,
- the Elite doing somewhat whatever they want and trying to make it center stage even if it isn't supposed to be one,
- Danielson staying somewhat aside from being like Jericho and the Elite and just putting guys over and picking his random cool matches/moments which make sense for an overall resume of someone of his caliber,
- MJF rarely wrestling and mostly hyping himself up and talking about the bidding war of 2024,
- frequent debuts of ex-WWE/indy talents to mask lack of interesting storylines going on,
- frequent cameos of NJPW talent to mask lack of interesting storylines going on,
- creating new titles whenever possible,
- occasional or select few storylines that have a proper build-up and pay-off (Page/Omega last year for the title was something that had some feeling of finality or pay-off to it),
- Sting/Darby doing their thing,
- Britt Baker doing her thing,
- Jade Cargill looking good and dominating but not moving anywhere up the card or doing anything really,
- Eddie Kingston trying to be some more vulgar and more unstable but worse in-ring performer AEW version of Mick Foley/Terry Funk,
- due to the overstacked roster, talented guys like Miro, Brian Cage, etc. always on the bench,
- a whole lot of solid/good wrestling around all this,
- no clarity as to who sits where in the hierarchy and where exactly they're headed - no clear differentiation between low-card, mid-card, upper-card, main event - everyone's a player in AEW.
Basically, AEW is still operating like a start-up that's just trying to find its footing and right rhythm, still working out the same bugs, in their third year of existence. And maybe some of the issues grew even bigger as the roster grew, in 2019 when there were less people in the company, the chaotic, unclear nature of the pecking order was less visible.
And the biggest problem is, by this point, TK has gotten everyone used to this chaos, while allowing everyone so much freedom and massaging the ego of so many people for so long, now they're used to being listened to and pushed. So now no one is going to acknowledge they might be overpaid, overpushed, or given way too much freedom, because everyone who got somewhat of a push in the past three years (which is a lot of people) now thinks they're either a shining star or a star just waiting to explode. And it seems almost no one including TK is actually doing the most important thing - putting the effin' company first and structuring the card and stories so the company prospers and grows, instead of everyone just looking at their own prosperity and growth.
OMG are we going to get Sting vs Jeff Jarrett in 2022/2023?
worst part is i would probably still pay to see that
It's gonna be a 15 minutes long squash with 5 broken guitars and a badly done coffin drop.
Blood feud.....😅😅
Tony Khan destroying kayfabe by announcing that a guy who promised to put people in body bags is getting a promotion to an executive position in the office makes absolutely no sense. It suspends all belief. If the guy is that dangerous he cannot be in that position in the office.
Edit oops I didn't realize corny was going to say the exact same thing LOL
i love it when Jim sings, its so random and weird but so awesome
Great Double J debut. Complete with TNA entrance music!
Dixie Carter inbound as Tony Khaun Montana's New wife to ruin the company.
If Tony thought CM Punk’s backstage intentions were hard to contain, he might be twice as vulnerable to the likes of this guy? 😳
Jarrett definitely has just as much of a temper as Punk, but I don't think Jeff Jarrett is going to go on camera and tell the journalists, reporters and EVPs exactly what he thinks of them, if only because he not only saw Punk do that already, but he saw Joe do almost the same thing in TNA. Samoa Joe ended up being right, of course, but it hurt him politically in the short term. And even if Punk is right, it has also hurt him, in the short term. Jarrett will likely be more subtle if push comes to shove.
This artwork is simply brilliant 👍😅😂🤣
I know who Cole Young (Mortal Kombat ) is than Dan Tucker aka Cole Carter lol The worse AEW gets, the better Travis art is. This is my favorite of them all. Tony’s coked out eyes 😂😂😂
I’m just glad he said Choke on that Slap Nuts! I love it. I used to have a WCW slap nuts shirt.
