Jeff Jarrett recently talked about a wide range of topics on his My World podcast.
During the podcast, the AEW star discussed entering the Men’s Owen Hart Foundation Tournament, hoping to earn a shot at the AEW World Title at AEW All In later this year.
The WWE Hall of Famer shared the news on Saturday’s episode of Collision and cut an honest and heartfelt promo. Check out this must-see promo.
“There had been talk, off and on, I don’t know how deep the conversation got, but I believe there were conversations last year about it. I don’t know how far they went, it wasn’t none of my business. Last year, I was not part of the tournament. This year, there was a little bit of chatter off and on about it. As the layers went down, when I heard the winner moves on to Wembley, I immediately said, ‘that eliminates me.’ I get it. Then, I had that thought, ‘that tournament is my Wembley.’ The decision was made to put me in,” said Jarrett. “They wanted me to sit down and really just answer one question, ‘What’s it mean to me?’ Me and Karen were at catering with Jay (Lethal) and they said they were going to schedule it later in the night. Had that dark match, had a blast doing that. Afterward, they came through, and they said, ‘When you get cleaned up, let’s go do it.’ Karen said something like, ‘Guys, it’s the only thing that he cries about every time.’ I asked myself, ‘Why is that?’ I text Sonjay, it would have been late Friday night, he said, ‘Are you okay if we release the uncut version?’ ‘Not at all.'”
