Why is Kenny Omega's big victory a win for the industry?

Jeff Jarrett is one of the most instrumental figures in the history of IMPACT Wrestling and a worthy inductee into the TNA Hall of Fame. He had the following to say on the Kenny Omega situation, where someone not officially a part of the roster was the face of the company:

"I think it's fantastic. It is no secret that I have always been a fan of cross promotions. If you think about even the very earliest days of even TNA, we had AAA involved, the No.1 promotion in Mexico. So, I've always been a big believer of interpromotional stories and talent," said Jeff Jarrett.

Yes, Jeff Jarrett does believe that Kenny Omega's victory is healthy for the industry.

"I think it's great for the industry. Kenny is obviously an incredible talent. But I think it's just healthy for the industry. You see Chris Jericho going back and doing a Broken Skull session with Stone Cold Steve Austin. I think with the environment that entertainment is with streaming first now, that's where the podcast is at," said Jeff Jarrett.
