So Jeff Jarrett is starting a new promotion backed by Toby Keith with Kurt Angle as the Star!

[The Great One]

Konnan said on the latest MLW podcast that he spoke to Jeff Jarrett over the weekend and Jarrett told him he's planning to make a big announcement this week (Monday or Tuesday) about the formation of a new wrestling promotion. Granted, it's coming from Konnan, but it's something to look out for.

Konnan said Jarrett hinted that country music star Toby Keith would be the majority investor in the project, but stopped short of naming Keith directly. He also said Jarrett told him that TNA is in bad shape, which is not surprising, considering TNA's recent issues and Jarrett's abrupt departure from the company he founded over a decade ago.

With Jim Ross' being a free agent and tweeting that he recently met with Toby Keith, it should be interesting to see what comes of this.

SFW

I'll watch as long as Jeff Jarrett is not on camera. I wonder if JR is booking or if he's doing pbp.

 

[Reality Check]

I'll watch as long as Jeff Jarrett is not on camera

If he is, the promotion is DOA

That's good and all...

but who wrestles for them?

Finding people old and young shouldn't be a problem. But what kind of TV distribution would they have (if any).

 

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

If so Jim Ross is dead to me

 

[TheGreatShowtime]

Jim Ross said a few weeks ago that he was done with wrestling on a full-time basis, I thought.

 

[Hoss]

Hard to imagine Ross and Jarrett working together, I thought Ross had heat with Jarrett over the way he left the WWF (you know, the thing where Ross forgot Jarrett's contract was expiring, Jarrett kept his mouth shut, and then held Vince up for $250K to drop the IC Title to Chyna).

Crazier things have happened though.
