Jeff Jarrett’s announcement about his future in AEW ended up
being a swerve as Jarrett revealed that he signed his final
talent contract and will end his in-ring career in AEW.

There was a tease for several days that Jarrett would be
hanging up his boots but that was all just that, a tease, as
Jarrett explained that this business was a high risk, high
reward one and he’s taking a big risk now for the biggest
reward: becoming the AEW World champion in 2025.

Jarrett, 57, then put his name in next week’s Casino
Gauntlet match where the winner will receive an AEW World
title shot against Jon Moxley on January 15.


The WWE Hall of Famer has been signed to AEW since late 2022
and also holds an office job as Director of Business
Development apart from being an on-air talent.
