Jeff Jarrett has returned to WWE for a new role
Recently Jeff Jarrett appeared on My World podcast and talked about his list of top three current WWE Superstars. Throughout his career, Jeff Jarrett has competed in some incredible battles and has faced off against some of the industry’s biggest names. He named Cody Rhodes as number one in his list and said that the Company has never seen anybody with the kind of momentum that Cody has and went on to praise “The American Nightmare’s” Debut at WrestleMania 38.
Further, Jarrett added roman reigns and Seth Rollins to his list. He said that it’s hard not to think of Roman reigns when talking about top three and then went on to praise Seth Rollins by calling him versatile.
“The top three stars. You got to put, look at Cody right now, and yes, he’s injured. But I mean, it is such a given, the momentum. I’m not sure that the business has seen somebody with that kind of momentum, because it’s not the Attitude Era, and that’s good and bad for every reason. But Cody jumping back in the manner that he did it, the stage that he did it. He didn’t re-debut at a Survivor Series or Raw, it was the ‘granddaddy of them all’ this year, it was stupendous.”
“So Cody has to be one right up there. You know, when you go into… it’s easy for me to think okay, is there a Mexico star that you want to, because I just think the Hispanic audience has untapped potential. So I’m trying to think on that line, but wow so top three stars I gotta go Cody one, it’s hard to argue to not really think through, and go gotta go Roman just, no pun intended or all pun intended, The Bloodline of Roman and I don’t say that from storyline purposes, you just kind of look back over the history of the the business.”
“Roman is up there, so if we’re gonna go three, I’m gonna go Cody as your babyface, Roman as your heel. It’s really hard to and I know that just came off and this is somewhat topical, but Seth Rollins is super versatile.”
Jeff left TNA in 2014 and cut ties with it after his failure to merge his new promotion Global Force Wrestling (GFW) with TNA. Jeff Jarrett currently works with WWE and is the Senior Vice President of Live Events.
