In an exclusive for WrestlingNews.co, Steve Fall interviewed Jeff Jarrett and Jay Lethal ahead of their upcoming match against World Tag Team Champions FTR at AEW Double or Nothing.
On Hulk Hogan possibly appearing on AEW TV, Jarrett said:
“I’ve said this long before a few people have coined this phrase. Never Say Never in this industry. There was a time way back in my career that, you know, going back to the territory days that you would say, Jerry Lawler and Bill Dundee will never ever step foot in the same building, but they did and time and time again. So, you would have said would Ric Flair ever go to the WWF way back when? Would Sting ever go to the WWF? Never gonna happen! Would Sting ever wrestle in TNA? Never gonna happen! It always ends up it is professional wrestling. And that’s the good thing. That why I just think we’ve always been an anomaly. Obviously, we’re not true sport or pure entertainment. It’s very, very competitive. But at the end of the day, the fan base drives so much of our industry and that’s what makes it exciting. You never know what’s gonna happen. And with the advent of social media, man, it’s such a driver, the vocal fan base.”
Lethal said, “What a wild world that I grew up watching on television, Hulk Hogan. And now on the flip side, full circle. Everything comes around. He is watching me on television. Isn’t that wild?”
