Jeff Jarrett Talks The Rise & Fall, and Rise of TNA

Jeff Jarrett and Dark Side Of The Ring co-creator Evan Husney breakdown the brand-new three-part Dark Side Of The Ring story about TNA Wrestling! They discuss why the TNA story grew from two episodes to three, how they got Jeff Jarrett involved, and what he brought to the production in addition to his emotional story. Jeff reveals what surprised him most after watching the finished series, and the first thing his wife Karen said to him after she binged it. Jeff revisits his infamous WWE exit that ended with Vince McsMahon personally handing him a check before he dropped the Intercontinental Championship, the final days of WCW, launching TNA from scratch with his father, Jerry, bringing in Kurt Angle, and eventually being pushed out of the company. He remembers Bob Carter, and his daughter Dixie’s initial involvement, how he convinced Bob to sign Kurt Angle, and later, Hulk Hogan to TNA, and how Vince Russo came into the mix. Jeff explains what made him return to TNA, and why he truly didn’t want to see Dixie Carter fail. He and Evan also discuss why Dixie chose not to participate in Dark Side Of The Ring, who provided some lost, unseen footage in the ninth hour that saved the day, Scott Steiner's emotional interview, and why there was simply too much TNA history to fit into a single episode. Dark Side of the Ring Season 7 is streaming now on VICE TV.
