Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Jeffrey Leonard Jarrett (born July 14, 1967) is an American professional wrestler and professional wrestling promoter, who was active in WCW and WWF, and the co-founder of both TNA and Global Force Wrestling. A third-generation wrestler (being the son of legendary promoter Jerry Jarrett), he opened in 1986 as a babyface country singer; hence his artifact gimmick, that of smashing guitars over peoples' heads. But he had trouble getting over with fans, who dismissed his exposure as pure nepotism.Jeff responded by turning heel (as unpopular wrestlers are wont to do), and all was well — he went to WWF, then to WCW for a year and to WWF back again, until he left under a cloud after his contract ran out and he demanded a big payday for jobbing to Chyna; it wasn't until 2018, 19 years after Jarrett left, that the two sides publicly reconciled with Jarrett's induction into the WWE Hall of Fame and appeared as entry #2 in the 2019 Royal Rumble.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })He had better success as a member of WCW's New Blood stable and in TNA's nWo attempt (Immortal). As an in-ring performer, he is best known for his smarmy, cowardly nature.Oh, and he's a 15-time world champion, having held six NWA World Heavyweight Championships, four WCW World Heavyweight Championships, three USWA World Heavyweight Championships, and two AAA Mega Championships.He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2018. | |

| Jeff Jarrett (Wrestling) / int_113472aa | comment |
Miles Gloriosus During his 2010-2011 feuds with Samoa Joe and Kurt Angle, Jarrett started to hype himself up as a prolific MMA fighter and held MMA "training" sessions in the ring where he'd basically use simple MMA holds to torture whatever poor sap was dumb enough to become his lackey. Any real competition from men like Joe or Kurt and Jeff was doing everything possible to worm his way out. Jarrett took over a local kids karate school where he left all the kids laying while talking trash to Kurt Angle and Samoa Joe. | |

Dirty Coward | |
| Jeff Jarrett (Wrestling) / int_1235f055 | comment |
Dirty Coward: Through his heel runs, such as sending Tony Falk to try and convince Big Van Vader to go after someone else in USWA. Though in TNA he was uncharacteristically valiant, willingly standing up to Kevin Nash when it was clear he was not going to listen to reason. Went back to being a coward in his feud with Kurt Angle. | |

Villain Team-Up | |
| Jeff Jarrett (Wrestling) / int_169d22e6 | comment |
Villain Team-Up When Ray González was revealed to be The Mole in IWA Puerto Rico, still owning 16% of WWC's shares and planning to turn the promotion into an extension of the WWC "brand" under it's old "Capitol" name, well to make a long story short, he faced some stiff resistance. When Jeff Jarrett and other NWA-TNA wrestlers intruded upon IWA though, González allied with them. While he was AAA's Mega Champion, he helped Mexican America beat Beer Money for the TNA World Tag Team Championships. | |

The Heavy | |
| Jeff Jarrett (Wrestling) / int_1badfbbb | comment |
The Heavy: In 2004, the Capitol+National Wrestling Alliance-TNA attempted takeover of the International Wrestling Association's Puerto Rican branch used a Big Bad Duumvirate; Ray González (The Mole with shares in the World Wrestling Council, looking to revive its old Capitol trademark) and Panda Energy (suits who were sore about IWA owner Victor Jovica lending money to WWC to prevent them from buying it up). Since none of the Panda suits were wrestlers, the face of the NWA-TNA side was Jarrett, and he had his own agendas. | |

Nepotism | |
| Jeff Jarrett (Wrestling) / int_22a60f6a | comment |
Nepotism: It was a well-known fact that TNA was created by Jerry Jarrett to put the spotlight on Jeff (well, and to replace WCW). However, this faded out over time as Jeff lost control of the company to Dixie — whose nepotism far surpasses anything the Jarretts had ever done (nearly killing the company), to the point that Jeff attempted to buy the company back, and when that didn't work, left and started another promotion instead. As much as his detractors resent how he took up the spotlight, they all generally agree that Jeff at least knows how to run a wrestling promotion — much better than Dixie ever has and ever will. | |

| Jeff Jarrett (Wrestling) / int_675056e4 | comment |
Signature Move: The Jarrett Strut. It's similar to Ric Flair's strut, except that at the end he raises his arms in an "I've got it!" motion. It looks pretty ridiculous, but given his heel character, that was probably the intention. Also "El Kabong", where he slams his guitar over the head of some unlucky schmuck, much as the titular cartoon character would. | |

Didn't Think This Through | |
| Jeff Jarrett (Wrestling) / int_8d0785d5 | comment |
Didn't Think This Through: So at the 2009 Slammiversary, Jeff Jarrett states he has no desire to win the TNA World Heavyweight Championship and just wants Mick Foley to lose the belt in the night's King of the Mountain match. Considering he's part of TNA's front line of defense against the Main Event Mafia, it's a safe guess he doesn't want Kurt Angle to win either. So what does Jarrett do? Ruin fellow TNA defender AJ Styles' chances to win the belt, even though neither Foley nor Angle was in any position to stop them and obviously would have lost if AJ won. Jeff himself had no desire to win, so why bother? | |

Canon Discontinuity | |
| Jeff Jarrett (Wrestling) / int_a32334b4 | comment |
Canon Discontinuity: He and Ray González had a falling out over González winning the NWA World Heavyweight Championship in 2005. González was immediately stripped of the title, and it was expunged from the NWA's and TNA's records. After the NWA divorced from TNA, though, they did officially recognize that Ray González beat Jarrett for the World Heavyweight Championship. Jarrett is one of the very few wrestlers who's been Unpersoned in the WWF/E since his exit from the company in 1999, due to monetary issues involving his exit. It says something that the only time McMahon mentioned him since was during the Raw/Nitro simulcast to state that, from the WCW wrestlers he was going to bring in, Jarrett was definitely not going to be among them. This policy eventually ended in 2018 with the announcement that Jarrett would be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. | |

| Jeff Jarrett (Wrestling) / int_a6cbef9a | comment |
Joker Immunity: Jim Cornette's managed to somewhat rein in valets, even after it was ruled they couldn't be attacked by male wrestlers. He fired Earl Hebner for being a crooked referee. He broke up the largest and most evil version of Team Canada that wrestling had ever seen. He put LAX back to work. But he couldn't take the NWA World Heavyweight Championship from Jeff Jarrett, which is what people really wanted to see. | |

Catchphrase | |
| Jeff Jarrett (Wrestling) / int_b01abe4f | comment |
Catchphrase Loves to call opponents "slap nuts." No idea why. "Ain't I great?" and "That's J, E, double F, J, A, double R, E , double T... I'm double J, Jeff Jarrett!" during his first WWF run. After he had his head shaved by X-Pac, he adapted "DON'T PISS ME OFF!" as his new catchphrase. | |

Anti-Villain: Jarrett is apparently a loving father of five, including step-children by Karen. There would be a lot of segments on Impact and even the TNA pay per views showing him to be a decent to great dad and husband, so long as no one said anything about Dixie Carter or Kurt Angle. | |

The Napoleon: Requested that no one taller than him volunteer for the Double J's Double M A competitions, as he did not want anyone to get hurt. That included kids shorter than him with parents who were taller than him, on the reasoning they had genes that could allow them to surpass his height. | |

Un-person | |
| Jeff Jarrett (Wrestling) / int_d558b013 | comment |
Unperson: He was one of the few wrestlers to be Unpersoned in the WWF/E. The story behind it goes like this: Jeff's contract was set to expire a day before the pay-per-view on which he was booked to lose the Intercontinental Title to Chyna. Under no obligation to work the show and feeling that losing to Chyna would make him look bad, Jeff gave Vince an ultimatum: either he would get paid more money for doing the job, or he would leave the company without dropping the title. Even Chyna, no fan of the McMahons, confirmed that Jarrett took him to the cleaners. McMahon paid him what he asked—which Jeff promptly invested into a rival wrestling company. Vince has held a grudge against Jarrett for it ever since. It is interesting to note that his father, Jerry Jarrett, is a different story; he has a strong relationship with the McMahons, and he revealed in a 2010 interview that Vince McMahon gave his condolences to him after his wife died. It wasn't until 2018, following 19 years of animosity, that Jeff and WWE surprisingly mended the fences with the announcement of Jeff's induction to the WWE Hall of Fame. An example of WWE's pettiness at this time is the fact they included his theme "With My Baby Tonight" on the WWE Anthology CD compilation and credited it solely to Road Dogg. It's true that Road Dogg was the singer (under his old name of The Roadie), which WWF acknowledged - but in the context of the time period, it was very much associated with Jarrett. Significant because this wasn't a mere entrance theme; Jarrett's gimmick then was being a country singer who'd had a hit with this song. He even took part in a performance of it at In Your House 2. | |

The Mole | |
| Jeff Jarrett (Wrestling) / int_e70127 | comment |
When Ray González was revealed to be The Mole in IWA Puerto Rico, still owning 16% of WWC's shares and planning to turn the promotion into an extension of the WWC "brand" under it's old "Capitol" name, well to make a long story short, he faced some stiff resistance. When Jeff Jarrett and other NWA-TNA wrestlers intruded upon IWA though, González allied with them. | |

| Jeff Jarrett (Wrestling) / int_e88e8a8f | comment |
Writer on Board: In the early days of TNA, Jarrett hogged the NWA title like there was no tomorrow. Fans, annoyed that Jarrett was essentially abusing his power as owner of TNA, screamed "DROP THE TITLE" at him. Even Jim Cornette, who at the time had was all sunshine and roses about every other part of NWA-TNA, said he and Jarrett were going to butt heads over his constant title pushes. Since TNA defected from the NWA and built their own world championship, Jarrett's stayed away from the title scene. | |
