On the latest episode of My World With Jeff Jarrett, On the latest episode of My World With Jeff Jarrett, the WWE Hall of Famer weighed in on TNA’s Ultimate X match and how he’d love to see one in AEW.
Jeff Jarrett on how TNA debuted Ultimate X in August of 2003. Since then, it has become a signature match for TNA. The most recent came at TNA Rebellion in April when Moose defended the X-Division Title. You can check out some highlights from the discussion below:
On the Notion That The Match Is TNA’s Most Ridiculous:
“Really? You think that? Because I think Elevation X, because it limits who can and can’t do your match. We had some crazy ones. I always tried to think outside the box. Without risk, there is no reward. And sometimes — and rightly so — we laid an egg. I thought the Ultimate X, you know, Bentley was good. Sabin, Petey, AJ, Daniels. I mean, we could go through the list of these guys. ”
On the match working in AEW:
“To this day, I love the concept. Only a few special guys can really do it. I mean, I’d love to see one of these in AEW. With the athletes that we have? Oh my God.”
On Chris Sabin:
“Sabin was kind of a go to, a mainstay. Our friend Coach Scott D’Amore out there. These guys had good chemistry. They really, really did.”
