Jeff Jarrett gave his thoughts on various topics on his latest My World with Jeff Jarrett.
During it, the WWE Hall Of Famer talked about having a loaded roster in TNA Wrestling in 2017. Here are the highlights:
On TNA’s loaded roster at the time:
“Well, and see, that was something that I tried to kind of start and get in early in the episode. Anthem was brand new to the business. And look at the time, I was my own worst enemy and then some, but they were, and they take their responsibility and that’s all water under the bridge. But I, you know, and I was straight up with Ed and Anthem, Hey, we have got to put our best foot forward. We’ve gotta get talent in here. And we, we, we’ve gotta, I mean, hammer down. And I thought we had a lot of damage control and then rebuilding that we had to do immediately. And that first and foremost, comes with the great compelling content we’ve mentioned. Bruce [Prichard] came on, I think we’ve mentioned it on the prior episode, but Bruce behind the scenes producing and being on camera,”
On Sanatana and Ortiz:
“I think it’s unlimited [their potential]. I mean, that was, you know, I could remember from a creative perspective, January, February, koans promo skills and the LA, I’ll call it a brand within our world, I thought was still very strong, but we needed new talent. And so I know Jeremy Boash was, and Konnan was involved and maybe a few others, but that was the new LAX, Ortiz in Santana. And I fell in love with them on day one. I just think they have got a real authentic vibe that they’re not book in. They don’t look alike. They’re not exactly alike, but they just got, I just think, uh, the magic in them is it, and, and I’ve said this, it’s not one plus one equals. The sum is fantastic. It is. They just got magic when you put ’em together.”
On Chris Master/Chris Adonis:
“When I think back on and you could just kind of give an array of people’s career that when you jump on TV at such an early age Yes. And get shot up quickly, maybe too quickly. Hindsight tells you you don’t have anywhere to go but down. You know, you don’t manufacture. There’s only one rock and one, you know. So the slow, methodical build to the progression of a guy’s career, there’s so much more, I don’t wanna say longevity as only, but longevity and success. Chris can work.”
