In an interview with the RCWR Show, Jeff Jarrett spoke about Sunday’s Wrestle Kingdom 9 show, as well as building Global Force Wrestling. Here are highlights:
On the excitement for Wrestle Kingdom 9: “I’m super excited. You don’t get many opportunities to be a part of this type of mega event, you know, in Tokyo, live, at the Dome. They’re on pace to sell 50,000 tickets. This pay-per-view is the most widely distributed pay-per-view in the history of our business with the Flipps app, it’s all through Canada, all through the United States and then you can download the Flipps app and literally see this with a smartphone and smart TV anywhere in the world. This card is stacked from top to bottom. I’m super excited, you know? I’ll be wearing a couple hats this Sunday; being a professional wrestler, I’ll be wrestling in a match but much more importantly, you know, behind the scenes and making sure everything comes off without a hitch, I’m super excited for that.”
On where Global Force Wrestling goes after this Sunday: “You should look forward to some exciting announcements coming up. You know, I’ve been asked that question quite often. And I’ve answered it as much as I would like to at this time, but you know, if I were to make any of those types of announcements that you just touched on, it would definitely take the focus off Sunday and as a promoter, that makes zero sense Although I appreciate and respect the fact that you guys want to know what’s coming up next, when you’re on the other side of events like I am you want to keep everything concentrated on this Sunday. Want this event to come off wildly successful and then the Global Force Wrestling fans can look forward to the next announcement and I can tell you, they’re coming and we are very excited about 2015 on multiple levels and the answers to the questions you just asked will begin.”
On not being included in the TNA Hall of Fame: “Well, the short answer is like I said, about this time last year, I closed the chapter on this book of TNA wrestling. I moved on very excited, have zero regrets about my time there, very grateful and blessed and thankful for my 12 years there. But it was time for me and my family to move on. And so you know, the powers that be at TNA, they choose who they want to choose and more power to them and if that’s their decision and if they believe that’s truly what’s best for TNA business and TNA entertainment, God bless ‘em. I moved on and let that sleeping dog lie.”
