Loss Posted January 28, 2011 Author Report Posted January 28, 2011 Do they really think anyone cared that Jeff Jarrett didn't sing "With My Baby Tonight"? This is one of the worst things the WWF did that year, and they did some stupid stuff. Quote
Ditch Posted January 28, 2011 Report Posted January 28, 2011 Do they really think anyone cared that Jeff Jarrett didn't sing "With My Baby Tonight"? This is one of the worst things the WWF did that year, and they did some stupid stuff.I vividly recall watching this at the time and saying the same thing. I figured that maybe it was a country music thing, trying to appeal to rednecks, but even that doesn't make much sense. This is an angle where there's absolutely no way to end up making money on it. None. What were they thinking?! Quote
El-P Posted January 28, 2011 Report Posted January 28, 2011 This was so stupid. Meanwhile, Jeff Jarrett was having the best run of his life in WCW having great matchex with Benoit and Malenko, and tons of fun interaction with the Horsemen. Yeah, I was a fan of the Jarrett/Mongo/Debra triangle. Quote
Tim Evans Posted March 18, 2011 Report Posted March 18, 2011 Vince said Jarrett's last appearance was after losing to HBK but wasn't Jarrett in WWF in 96 too? And Jarrett in USWA 1996> WCW Jarrett anyday of the week. Quote
Zenjo Posted October 12, 2013 Report Posted October 12, 2013 It was just a really pathetic attempt to discredit a WCW midcarder. Quote
El-P Posted April 2, 2015 Report Posted April 2, 2015 Vince said Jarrett's last appearance was after losing to HBK but wasn't Jarrett in WWF in 96 too? Came back in late 95 and had a match with Ahmed at the Royal Rumble. But let's pretend it didn't happen. Quote
PeteF3 Posted April 4, 2015 Report Posted April 4, 2015 Jarrett smashing Ahmed with the gold record was cool, at least. Ooh, SECRET REHEARSAL TAPES. Fascinating. Yes, this is a monumentally dumb and incredibly petty angle. This reveal MAY have worked when Jarrett & Roadie were active parts of the roster, just because they were an effective heel tandem getting split up and not because it's a brilliant plot twist. Quote
The Chief Posted September 12, 2015 Report Posted September 12, 2015 Loyalty be damned, in a nice bit of continuity, King still sticks up for Jarrett. Was the lip synching this bad on the original broadcast? This is petty. Quote
soup23 Posted January 22, 2016 Report Posted January 22, 2016 So I guess this was an angle they had planned all along? that was one thing I never got. Anyway, we learn that Jesse James was the real singer and they present this as a huge scandal. I somehow doubt we are getting a ten part Netflix series on who the real Double J is. Quote
Exposer Posted May 13, 2017 Report Posted May 13, 2017 This is so stupid. I'm already tired of the Jeff Jarrett talk. Jesse James is evidently a pretty decent singer though. Quote
dawho5 Posted April 9 Report Posted April 9 Good thing Vince was on point and trying to do stuff that might, you know, get better ratings than WCW was. Quote
