Few figures in professional wrestling can claim Jeff Jarrett’s breadth of experience. The guy was a key star for Jerry Lawler’s Memphis territory back in the day, which included working stars of yore as well as fellow youngsters who would go on to become worldwide superstars.

From there, he was a major figure in the Monday Night War if only for having bounced back and forth between WWE and WCW so aggressively to better his prospects, and in the process share at least a locker room, if not ring time with anyone who was anyone from that hot period in the business. Add on Jarrett’s role in founding, running, and starring for Impact Wrestling, the Global Wrestling Federation stint, and his ultimate return to WWE, and there are few guys with experiences as circuitous or interesting as Jarrett’s.

It may be a long shot for Thompson to get a show with Jarrett, given Double J’s relatively recent return to the WWE fold and him probably wanting to do everything he can to stay in good standing given his past. Still, Thompson could score Jarrett as a podcast partner, it’s fascinating to think of the stories they might uncover together.
