Dark Side of the Ring debuted “Jeff Jarrett and the Battle for TNA – Part III” this week, documenting Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff’s time when they were made figureheads in charge of TNA Wrestling. Jeff Jarrett spoke about the infamous moment on TNA iMPACT in 2013, where Hogan quit the company and walked out, while former TNA President Dixie Carter latched onto his leg, begging him to stay.

Jeff Jarrett claimed that Dixie Carter agreeing to take part in that segment speaks of her ignorance to the wrestling industry. He stated (via Fightful), “What an incredible masterpiece of a job that Hulk and Eric (Bischoff) and whoever else was involved, convinced her to do that. I would’ve never done that if I was Dixie. It said everything about her knowledge of the industry.”
