Jeff Jarrett Weighs In On Whether If He’d Be Interested In Buying TNA

Jeff Jarrett recently weighed in on the rumor of TNA being up for sale, and whether he would be interested in re-acquiring the company he founded. As the latest episodes of Dark Side of the Ring have documented, Jarrett founded the company; however, he hasn’t been involved with the company since 2017, when he sold his final stake in the company to Panda Energy.

There has been speculation (unfounded thus far) that TNA may be up for sale as they have cut costs, including a number of talent and backstage releases. Jarrett was asked on the Ariel Helwani Show if he would be interested in buying the promotion. He said he hadn’t looked into it at all, but wouldn’t rule out such a notion, as you can see in the highlights below:

On If He’d Be Interested In Buying TNA:

“Look, I’m very [happy]. Tony Khan; you know, I did the Ric Flair’s Last Match [show], and that came out of nowhere, super successful. From there, signed with AEW. The success I’ve had at AEW, I do not take that lightly. Wembley — you know, I could go down, Arthur Ashe Stadium with ‘Hangman’ Adam Page. So many highlights at AEW; I’m very grateful with everything.

“But you know, I love opportunities. And I think that if the opportunity presented it right — but you know, I have no idea. I’m very happy. I can tell you this much, at this stage of my career, I’m the oldest guy actively on the roster. I love what I do. But, I’m a businessman and it comes from three generations.”

On His AEW Role and Not Wrestling More:

“Well, I do Zero Hour. But I mean — hey, we’ve talked a lot about, 90% of this interview is when I’ve had to put the cap on of making the decisions. I’m very comfortable. I’m not in the creative department. I’m not in talent relations. I’m a talent. And when I’m called to do Zero Hour, be an analyst, I do that. When I’m called to wrestle, I’ll be a wrestler.”
