LATEST ON THE JEFF JARRETT NEW PROMOTION FRONT

By Mike Johnson on 2014-02-27 17:13:00
In regard to rumors that Jeff Jarrett hinted at a Tuesday night wrestling series on cable during an appearance in Nashville last week, I am told that it's a case of his words being taken out of context. Jarrett actually talked about wrestling being storytelling and that the story would translate on any night of the week, using Tuesday as an example, but that the stories need to be told outside of just one specific night.

We are told that Jarrett has been traveling extensively in the last few weeks setting up production, merchandise, talent and international relations with other promotions. We are told Jarrett is closer to making an official announcement and that he will be doing a photo shoot for a "major production company" which will lead into the announcement. We had originally heard nothing would be announced prior to April, but that may no longer be the case.

The belief is that country star Tobey Keith has been involved in helping set Jarrett up with investors and with opening doors for certain deals. Former TNA Production head Kevin Sullivan is working with Jarrett on the project.
