Even though the live crowds don't treat him like the biggest deal in the company, I do believe Swerve has taken full advantage of the spotlight he's been given as champ. Dude just feels like the World Champ. 

Yuta getting sent to a kayfabe hospital while Danielson has to watch what's in store for him would be awesome storytelling. They better not fuck it up next week.

There should be a case study done on Jeff Jarrett, man. Like, he was just in the midcard during his WWF run & I couldn't stand him. He was boring during his solo push in the IC division but he was fine during his tag stuff with Owen Hart. In WCW, when they tried to make him a top guy, to me, it didn't work at all. To be fair though, most shit in WCW at that time wasn't any good, that wasn't just Jarrett. He's always been fine in-ring but outside of a catchphrase, his WCW run was pretty forgettable, but in smaller promotions, like TNA iMPACT or AEW, he really kinda moves into his own lane & becomes quite entertaining. His Double J Double M A stuff in TNA was a ton of fun & I've really liked his Last Outlaw stuff in AEW.

I've never really liked The Stroke as a finish, regardless of who was using the move. The one in this match with Danielson was particularly bad but it's like, with all the issues he's had with concussions, I don't think anyone is blaming Dragon for not taking a better looking bump on the chair. 

I wouldn't be opposed to Jarrett going into the WWE HOF tbh.

These past two years are some of the best work of Double J's career for sure. I think he might be the only wrestler to actually benefit from the Conrad podcast network because he seems like such a genuinely good dude. It's probably pretty fair to say Jeff Jarrett is the most important and influential non-McMahon in US wrestling between 2001-2019.
