On Wednesday night during AEW Dynamite, Jeff Jarrett aimed to honor Owen Hart when he competed in the Owen Hart Foundation Men’s Tournament.
However, he fell short of Hangman Page. As seen below, Jay Lethal gave Jarrett a pep talk.
“I really feel like I know what’s going on through your head right now. I think what’s going on in your head is you think that you may have squandered this opportunity, and if you think that, you’d be a damn liar. You know why? Because it’s the furthest thing from the truth. You didn’t squander anything. While everybody got to prepare for their opponents. It’s not an excuse, it’s the fact. It’s the fact, Jeff, and you know it. Another thing probably going through your head is you probably think that you didn’t do such a great job of honoring the memory of your friend, and that’d be a damn lie as well. You know why? Because you went out of there, and you worked your ass off. You didn’t take any back steps. You didn’t take any backroads, no cheap shots, and you didn’t do any of it. You know why? Because you tried to honor your friend. Not try, you did. You went out there and fought a noble fight for a noble friend; and we all appreciate that. Nobody can look you in the eye and say you didn’t try. Nobody can look you in the eye and say you didn’t succeed in your goal, which was honoring Owen Hart,” Lethal said.
