As part of Jeff's UK tour he is making limited appearances at a select few independent wrestling promotions, Pro Wrestling Chaos in Bristol (my local), and ICW in Glasgow who most wrestling fans will know about. I asked Jeff about his role at these shows and why he thinks the independent wrestling scene is important.

Yes, you'll be at Pro Wrestling Chaos in Bristol, you will be the General Manager for the evening. One of the questions I wanted to ask was which wrestler or wrestlers would you absolutely have to have on your roster?

Jeff Jarrett: Those type of questions, quite frankly Daniel, I'll leave that up to the armchair quarterbacks, I'll leave it up to you guys, What is so exciting, it's very exciting, is the depth of talent around the world, just on Fite I was watching a PPV from Australia, Down Under, and the local homegrown talent from there.

It goes without saying and I've said it for years and years now, that the British scene has, not some of the, but probably the best crop of undiscovered talent so there are so many, so for me to name one or two or even four or five is doing many, many others a disservice. But I will say this, there is more undiscovered talent on the independent scene now then there's ever been, in my opinion, I've never seen so much undiscovered talent.

I would definitely agree with that, so, would you say that making appearances for independent promotions like [Pro Wrestling] Chaos and ICW are important to you?

Jeff Jarrett: Absolutely, and it's a part of me working with Fite, and our partnership and bringing independent wrestling a platform, for the lack of a better word. Fite is vastly becoming the, we'll call it, the non-WWE network with there being many, many independent scenes that people have the opportunity to see.

But me making appearances at places like Chaos and collaborating, you know the General Manager role I'm doing and collaborating as much as I can. I enjoy it. It's something I've done my whole career, whether it's the GM role or something along those lines behind the scenes and now I get to integrate myself into these promotions and have a lot of fun, throw a guitar shot around here or there, maybe sing a little song here or there and have some fun!
