The Jeff Jarrett and Global Force Entertainment lawsuit against Impact Wrestling parent company Anthem Wrestling was officially dismissed on 1/14, with the caveat that it can be re-opened if their agreed upon settlement should fall through. The two sides informed the court on 1/8 that they had finally agreed to a settlement after well over two years of legal battles.
We are told by WWE sources that while Jarrett has declined to comment on the lawsuit settlement when asked, he has been in a "great mood" over the last week, leading to speculation among some that he received a monetary settlement.
We have received numerous questions from readers about where the ownership of the GFW footage landed in the settlement. PWInsider.com has been unable to get a comment from either side on the matter, but if the DVDs go back on sale via Impact's website and/or that content pops up on Impact+, it's a pretty much a given that Impact ended up purchasing the content as part of the settlement.
If you want to do a deeper dive, the case has been well documented here on PWInsider.com:
