Jeff Jarrett Reflects on the Importance of Victory Road 2004 To TNA

On the latest episode of My World With Jeff Jarrett, the WWE Hall of Famer talked about the importance of TNA switching to monthly PPVs, TNA Victory Road 2004, and more. You can check out some highlights below:

On the importance of TNA switching to monthly PPVs with Victory Road 2004: “I’ve never been one for big ‘Rah rah’ speeches. But I have been really big on not just being optimistic, but, ‘Hey guys, think things through and see a victory.’ I’m not talking about a 1-2-3, but have the vision of a great pay-per-view out of a great match, and digging down and have passion… I don’t mean that out of disrespect, but everybody knew that’s the day that the game has completely changed. At that time, they didn’t know, for better or worse, but it had changed. But to me, the running thread and going from the weekly to the monthly — yes, Conrad, there was an extreme sense of, ‘Let’s go do this, guys. Let’s go, you know, show the wrestling fan base that we can put on a three-hour PPV that kicks ass.’”

On TNA being an underdog: “So you know, I’m not trying to paint this big rosy picture, but if there’s one kind of common thread that I believe from talent to office to production and even the fan base. I believe that in spite of the naysayers, if you will, there was a real ‘Lttle Engine that Could’ mentality that kept growing and kept growing and kept growing, that started in 2002. In my opinion, kept going till Hulk Hogan got on board.”
