Jeff Jarrett on the WWE and Elias
With Mahabali Shera and The Bollywood Boys coming up, both currently with the WWE, now seemed like a great time to ask Jeff Jarrett the all-important question. Will he be back with the WWE in the future?
While we're on the subject of the WWE is there any plan for you to return there in the future?
Jeff Jarrett: Daniel, I've got to be candid with you. If there were, do you think I'd be telling you?
(That wasn't a denial though! So I'm going to take that as Jeff Jarrett refuses to deny plans to return to the WWE in the future. Good ol' media spin!)
No, I don't! Okay, can you tell me then, the SmackDown Live General Manager role was a bit up in the air before Paige ended up doing it, were you in talks or were you maybe considered to take that role?
Jeff Jarrett: I can clearly state that the Hall of Fame and everything that went with that was the discussion. And the way that machine works that all of our energies were focused on that. The WWE network collections that were just released this month, the 'Table for 3', I did some stuff with Edge and Christian, quite a few network shows. That was post the Hall of Fame, those were the building blocks.
You did your 'Table for 3' with Road Dogg and Elias, one of the questions a lot of people wanted me to ask you was what are your thoughts on Elias and whether its good to see guitars getting smashed still in the WWE.
Jeff Jarrett: The sky's the limit for that gentleman, ton of respect for him, he has just a tremendous amount of upside, and he appeared to be, from the conversations that I had, that he wants it and as far as his career goes, truly the ball is in his hands, the ball's in his court. I'm looking forward to seeing him continue to succeed over the years and I'm glad to see him wielding a guitar, it makes my heart proud, maybe one day he'll take a guitar shot, he'll be added to the list.
Coming up, Jeff Jarrett discusses All In, Impact Wrestling and reveals if he has any regrets in his career.
