Mr. Jarret is so calming, think just watching this lowered my blood pressure 5 pts. Thank you Hannibal, nobody is doing this at your level.

[@TheeCoachg]

Same 😂😂😂😂😂😂. I can listen to him talk all day,it voice is so soothing

[@ggandy6393]

Hannibal.... really appreciate the professionalism and respect in your interviews..so refreshing not hearing an overzealous fanboy looking for hits for his channel and saying "yeah ,I was gonna ask you that" every other sentence. These older vets of wrestling we're part of coming up before cable and such , so it's great to hear their perspective of that era. Truly , thank.

[@tbonemaloneknowsitall]

Well said.

[@gordonirvine726]

RF's investigational journalistic follow up questioning consists of two rapport-killing statements: 1. Yeah I was gonna ask you that and 2. Yeah we're going to come to that later

[@shawnoandrew]

Hate that I'm just now seeing this now after he's passed but I have to say this is pure gold. Thank you Hannibal TV for doing this and putting it on youtube. Surely even Cornette can give props to Devon for doing what he did here.

[@joshuagibson79]

This is gold if I ever saw it. Thank you so much Hannibal for doing this interview, and thanks to Jerry Jarrett for being so open and honest. Blessings to you both in the new year.

[@johnmatrix1232]

Been waiting for this one. Jerry Jarrett has some huge knowledge. Hannibal you’re doing a great job with these interviews and us wrestling fans really appreciate it. Thank you

[@stickypool]

What a gentleman. A pleasure to listen to.

[@mider9996]

This is a rare time I’m entertained by such a long interview, Jerry Jerratt is an interesting guy.

[@hankjeffries9984]

[@tommymllounge]

This is the best interview I have ever seen. Listen to every second

[@JeffreyJetsKohut]

I liked it before even watching it. I was eagerly awaiting this interview being released in full!

[@wahoomcdaniel6359]

Jerry saw so much and has a great perspective. Thanks for doing this!!

[@Snowdjinn]

Thank You for this long well-done talk with legendary promoter Jerry Jarrett. Its very meaningful and insightful.

[@snaffy41]

Jerry Jerrett Is the coolest guy of all time

[@stephengennarelli1808]

This is one of the best, most informative shoot interviews I've ever seen. Jerry is so interesting and truthful. He is the anti-Bruce Prichard.

[@gullyblanchard5750]

RIP Jerry Jarrett. One of my fav shoots to listen to.

[@kstephen7625]

Just started listening, one thing I will give props to is Hannibal TV for all the background work you do to make each shoot so wonderful to watch. I just finished the JJ Dillon Shoot and it was fantastic. What a gentleman. God, I love to hear these old stories from the golden ages of wrestling. Vader was a great one.

[@ChrisMonte]

This is my favorite interview so far Dev! Jerry is the one man alive who really was there, everywhere for all of it.

[@frizzyred1292]

what a great shoot interview, Jerry is a gentleman, love him after watching this. Your best shoot so far, Hannibal. Well done!

[@georgerobbins3198]

Thank you so much Hannibal for this interview and all the others you conduct. As a professional historian, I recognize pro wrestling to be an important part of Americana.

[@TheHannibalTV]

Thanks

[@tbonemaloneknowsitall]

Hannibal is the best shoot interviewer. Someday all these old timers will be gone- and these words will last forever.

[@charlesbukowski9836]

its not really.....if anything its guns and cars

[@cherokeeoutlaw2.011]

Try not to comment on things. You're a complete idiot ​@@charlesbukowski9836

[@AMadLanza]

Watched it ALL! Maybe the best shoot I've ever listened to. How can anyone know more about the business than this man??? Much respect. Great guy!

[@kissforever1970]

What an amazing awesome 👏 interview I’ve ever got to watch on KZbin!!! Bravo 👏 bravo 👏 Jerry Jarrett is a amazing man with a great 👍 life. Memphis Wrestling will always be the best wrestling that ever came on TV.

[@johnonan744]

REALLY enjoyed watching this!! Thank you for posting it in it’s entirety... and also the Tracey Smothers interview, which I plan on watching this weekend T

[@rodzor]

Been waiting for the full interview! Thanks Hannibal, happy New Year!

[@justinponte3527]

Truely a gem of an interview Love Jerry Jarrett, much love and respect for what he has done for the wrestling business. Great job Devon

What about chicken salad?

[@Doug41160]

This was fantastic! I have a lot more respect for Jerry Jarrett.

[@markbowman6655]

After hearing Jerry Jarrett, I really think the guy is a class act, real gentleman, and the definition of a good wrestling promoter, owner, and operator.

[@jamesmccord2961]

Well you know... always a pleasure

[@tony3434]

thanks Jerry for all the good times at USWA all the advice in the back you gave me. I owe you a lot.

[@MC-rf8sx]

Jerry is the greatest pro wrestling promoter business man minds of all time

[@bryantcraighead1694]

Seems like a good guy and a DAMN good business man and Bruce Pritchard has the nerve to insult the man

[@jamesgentry13]

HUUUUHHHH??? Chicken Salad

[@bustersales6921]

Bruce Pritchard as in brother love? What’re you talking about?

[@rondorthecruel124]

The individual making a living by being a parody, is never as big or as successful as the original due to being less talented, unless you’re Weird Al Yankovic.

[@libertarian500]

@@shawnpatrick6038 well said. And I've been saying the same thing about coffee!! The reason Bruce hates Jerry Jarrett so bad is because in 93 when it was thought Vince may go to prison Jerry would run the company, he asked Bruce why Pat Patterson had him there? Jerry didn't mind getting his own coffee.

[@dane21dc]

Bruce Pritchard is the biggest parasite in the business

[@markymark615]

Jerry “ASMR” Jarret!😂

[@RyHughes1978]

Very much enjoyed this and have increased respect for Jerry. Thank you Devon!

[@everettgarrett4858]

He built a castle had two friends named King one could wrestle one could sing. He got more for less he had a moral stance he's the bleeping genius that brought corny to the dance. He's the king of Developmental he is JJ OG he in my humble opinion belongs in the Hof of the WWE.

[@trapgod9672]

Everett Garrett dang that was well put together! Jerry is the man well u know

[@shakerLT]

Totally 100% aggred. Vince needs him on the podium asap!!!!!

[@everettgarrett4858]

. All the boys in the business not named Lawler or Dundee claims he was stingy with cash but I don't see how that can be cuz when you're young in that business you would wrestle for free he made the best chicken salad and booked a hell of a show got Bruce Prichard back over with the words well you know love was jelly when he got Vince's call that's probably why the brother wont mention who really came up with the concept for raw

[@hurleyshirley8721]

Thank you bro I enjoyed it I'm from tupelo Mississippi and remember and love the old school days

[@kingsports1113]

Hurley Shirley who was fucking the local chicks

[@alwilson3204]

What a truly interesting and revealing interview. Great questions with a down to earth owner of a storied territory who knows the business from every angle there is so well. A genuine truth based person of faith with no illusions, legitimately looks at associates as they really are and were while willing to help many of the well known personalities involved if the chips were down when he could do so to make wrestling a better product. At 2 hours in I realized what rare stuff we were able to share in. Thanks so much Jerry.

[@jasminejohnston5138]

Amazing shoot interview Hannibal is da MAN when it comes to shoot interviews. #1 on the entire World Wide Web Bottom Line Case Closed

[@joshbarnes8977]

Thxx for this!

[@mark19642001]

Sensational shoot. Hannibal gets the most out of these guys.

[@wahoomcdaniel6359]

Jerry is so great. Truly one of the greatest minds in the history of the business. He made 10's of millions of dollars with his Tennessee promotion. He has been sought out as a consultant or for help by almost every major promoter in the industry. He helped bring along 100s of future superstars. So, when you see the Bruce Pritchard crowd make fun of him, ignore them. Bruce's biggest accomplishments are being Paul Bosch and Vince McMahon's secretary.

[@libertarian500]

Well stated

[@misstoni3901]

Yep

[@beingright]

Best interview ever.

[@timhannah2321]

Love your work #Hannibal Killin it with these career shoot interviews

[@cherokeeoutlaw2.011]

It's sad that these interviews with Jerry only get a few views with all the wrestling fans that are supposedly subscribed to the WWE channel... Every real wrestling fan should listen to these interviews and and see that this is one of the true pioneers of the territories who's there to the end

[@jasminejohnston5138]

Jerry Jarrett and Hannibal are wonderful human beings ;) Loves ya Hannibal & Jerry xoxox lol

[@SIXTHREEONEFOURTHREENIONEOOSEV]

;------)

[@edgelslone1699]

Here goes my next 4:30 hrs 😆 Thanks!!

[@toddporter9211]

another great interview, thank you.

[@toddporter9211]

you should interview bruce Prichard next or ole Anderson

[@The_Sage_of_Rage]

I love what Jerry said to Bruce, and I'm a Something To Wrestle fan

[@The_Sage_of_Rage]

Thanks for this

[@JasonHi]

Hannibal, you should have followed up more about Jarrett's feelings about Vince's dad and Eddie Graham. It would have given us an even more revealing picture of Jarrett. His gratitude is palpable.

[@nikpedegree5311]

This guy seems like a decent and fair businessman

[@BlackPillMagic]

The amazing wealth of knowledge is nothing short of stunning!

[@inmyopinion651]

Great shoot. A lot of insight to the business and advice on how it worked in the past all the way up until today.

[@i_GiveFRUITS]

"Well, You knoooooow" 😂😂

[@lidell56]

Is that statue on his right the one used on the opening to championship wrestling on TV 5 in Memphis? I miss the show so much. Every Saturday starting at 11.

[@TheHannibalTV]

Yes

[@tweettweetjones1262]

The only thing missing is Dave Brown and 'ol 'banana-nose'!

[@Chillaxinmellow]

I love this....Jerry has a wealth of knowledge.

[@patrickdaly5068]

I loved watching this! Jerry Jarrett was my favorite wrestler when I was a little kid. My dad took me to the matches one week “at The Lexington Catholic High School gym”, as Nick Gulas always said it in the promos. I got to see some cool gimmick matches that were designed to give the evil heals their justified comeuppance. It was Tojo v. the evil Kurt Von Brauner in a judo jacket match (I loved martial arts so that’s what I was really there to see), and Jerry v. Karl Von Brauner in a boxing match (Jerry supposedly had been a Gold Gloves boxer, but that may have been kayfabe). Jackie Fargo was supposed to be in a chain match against the VB’s evil manager Saul Weingeroff, but Fargo was a no-show (*sniff*), so Jerry’s father-in-law (or future FIL, which I never knew before looking at Wikipedia recently) Eddie Marlin filled in. I still remember being disappointed when they announced Fargo couldn’t make it over the PA. Anyway, all the good guys won. What was great was at the start of the first 2 rounds of the boxing match, Karl took off running toward Jarrett to get in some sucker punches, but when he did it in round 3, Jerry was ready and gave him a stiff uppercut and laid him out. I loved it! It was a great night of fun.

[@victorc8804]

RIP 🙏🏼 🪦 Jerry Jarrett 1942-2023 you lived a great fabulous life you will be missed 😢 💔 😞 😔 😪

[@markbutler8126]

Got to talk to Jerry as a fan, what a tremendously nice man. A wealth of knowledge and a great talent of the wrestling business

[@onithedemonslayer3142]

I love jerry he seems like a really good man

[@sistersforever8853]

He look like a Heavy set Jerry Springer

[@TheHannibalTV]

True

[@Eric-wu7bp]

Looks like a horribly aged love child of Jay Leno and Phillip Seymour Hoffman

[@dianneEdangerously]

🤣

[@jonfranks6902]

I love Mr Jarrett. Such a good and outstanding person

[@gmangannon3105]

Best interview on KZbin

[@e2go]

The story about how he got Cornette started as a manager is priceless!

[@patrickdaly5068]

Hilarious! “This guy is driving me crazy!” Walks away...”Wait a minute!”...Stops...Turns...”Hey! You’d be a great manager!” I had never heard that story before.

[@skee8721]

I cant believe I listened to this entire interview,it was awesome. I knew some about jerry jarrett and his contributions to pro wrestling but listening to this was incredibly cool. After 4 hours i wanted to hear him talk more. They need to do a big box set on the history of memphis wrestling featuring a lot of the matches and such. Ill have to look on the network to see if wwe has any footage of memphis bc i was way too young. I totally agree with the keep it real philosophy. I have the same opinions. I would pop big in a match if the guy just got out of the way instead of cooperating with a stupid move. Its so bad today that wrestlers social media have the wrestlers name&under it it says played by so and so. For 1,i cant support wrestlers that dont keep kayfabe alive. Thats why I like MJF so much.

[@dianneEdangerously]

I can’t stop thinking about Bruce Pritchard chicken salad, I’m so sorry 🤣, love you Jerry Jared! 💙

[@rodzor]

RIP Jerry Jarrett

[@1993Redemption]

3:24:56-3:25:03 Jerry Jarrett mentioned preemptively that the story of him and his son in TNA would be painful to recall, and you can tell that his voice almost breaks when someone is about to cry when he says that his son Jeff said "you left me once (with Jerry's ex wife, Jeff's mother) and now you're gonna desert me again." Just imagine that pain and guilt, along with the triple bypass, along with the eventual estrangement from his son due to business getting in the way of a personal family relationship. Those years of knowing his son won't talk to him must have been supremely painful to Jerry Jarrett.

[@mahdiwaqfi3477]

A wonderful person and from his words is not a deceiver may God protect you

[@Eric-wu7bp]

RIP Jerry Jarrett 🙏🏻🌺❤️

[@timmylongstroke7812]

Jerry Jarrett is a legend, he took bumps too. Saturday morning Memphis rasslin was a wild ride.

[@user-cs8eh7hq5f]

This has verified so much for me. Every opinion and point he makes is exactly my opinion on the business. What he said about the territories coming back is so true. The wrestlers were willing to go through years of graft and do a few things well, instead of feeders/NXT and weve got a million flips now but nobody can do a solid Irish whip.

[@mr.nobody5080]

The Godfather of professional wrestling

[@boodattigerbait]

Merry Christmas to us thank you! 🎁

[@dustinsisco9461]

Damn good interview. Great mind for the business and the fans. No ego just love and smarts for the wrestling business.

[@jordandixon5346]

My favourite Hannibal interview awesome!

[@Pillmanized]

3:13:27 I thought the concept was ''Tuesday Night Attitude'' (T.N.A) not Titans? but when they couldn't get the PPV slot on Tuesday they moved it to Wednesday and had to come up with the now infamous Total Nonstop Action name.

[@jims.6393]

"If this guy can make me mad just by talking to people, I need to get him to manage"

[@nyranstanton203]

buzzy so thats really what happened then. @ 3:00. Maybe Vince knew Jerry Jarrett might be his competition and he acted super quick maybe lol. It could of been a REAL competition had Jerry got hold of WCW , interesting stuff. Its almost like Vince's greed taking everything, has come to bite him in the ass eventually. Now he needs the territories OR he has to at least create his OWN territory system, whatever it is. But without it, its pretty screwed. If the wrestlers arent trained organically, then they just become a manufactured factory product.

[@1980bwc]

Its hard to believe that Jerry Jarrett and Superstar Bill Dundee are the same age. Bill is still wrestling.

[@Fnoel98356]

Bill Dundee is still wrestling probably because he has several kids. But Jerry Jarrett still works in real estate though.

[@jeaglejj]

Hannibal did you ever ask about Jimmy Hart?!? I heard he left on bad terms but I find it crazy he never talked about Jimmy Hart unless I missed it, great channel

[@rondorthecruel124]

I would love to know why Jerry kept Dusty Rhodes on that particular card, and not Ric Flair, if you ever have any follow up with him. Maybe it was just a choice, and it could have went either way. Maybe he had another reason. Jerry is an obvious genius who was hugely successful and made a lot of money. This was one of the most interesting interviews you have done. He really doesn’t give a shit about anyone who has criticized him, and is obviously more brilliant than anyone who has ever given him shit lol “When Vince goes to the pokey, your ass is gonna be out of work” Lol

[@eddydewayne386]

Jerry is down to earth and not a blow hard like Jim Cornette. Cornete loves to run his mouth and make it seems like he knows everything about the wrestling business and how things should be done. Jerry however, is mild mannered and doesn't spout the F bomb every other word and comes off as genuine and sincere.

[@jonfranks6902]

Cornette is a great wrestling mind but a miserable b*stard. All he does is talk trash continuously about ppl that wronged him

[@davidfrederick1971]

Hannibal: You asked Jerry if there is existing film of the Lawler-Andy Kaufman fued. 2 sources. Lawler released The Early years vhs and Im not sure what network but I think its on youtube. "Im from Hollywood" has majority of Kaufman's feud, matches, tv appearances in memphis.

[@jonfranks6902]

Ya know, Hannibal kinda rules 😎

[@bubbypage9379]

RIP Legend.

[@mulldrifterz6469]

Jerry is talking about John Laurngitis. 3:01:00.

[@conanthebarbarian1971]

Tyvm, jerry's a living legend, in my book.

[@libertarian500]

Great job Hannibal!!! Loved this interview. And if one takes the time to listen to it's entirety, you will learn how brilliant Jerry Jarrett is and stupid Bruce Prichard is in his attempts to belittle this man!

[@misstoni3901]

Agreed. I believe Bruce is jealous of Jerry and that is why he was making fun of him like he was which made him look so damned stupid. He did it so much I got disgusted quit listening to his show.

[@danielescanaba596]

Excellent

[@deelux5519]

Seems like Jerry Jarette is one of Vince MacMahon's true friends in life. It must be hard for a guy like Vince to have real friends, but I guess he really has one in Jerry. It's really telling that Vince named Jerry as the guy he trusted with his empire if he went to jail. It may be that Jerry is the only person Vince actually trusts....To this very day.

[@Therealgeoffchilds]

At first I’m like how am I gona do almost 5 hours but as soon as jerry spoke I’m like I can do this lol. But every time he says “WELL you know” I think of Bruce Prichard

[@rogerramon3151]

Rip Jerry Jarrett

[@mahdiwaqfi3477]

How can I communicate with him

[@timandcolleen4912]

Jerry seems like a good man how did get a son like jeff

[@_sabathia_5929]

I remember uswa every weekend had to watch. The opening music epic as the show began.

[@BMF_Network]

I really like stw w/ Bruce Pritchard but between Cornett and just forming my own opinion after watching I got to side with Double J. Jerry seems like a nice laid back guy, you can't question his success and you cant definitely question Bruce. What's he done away from Vince? And some would ask what has he even done/been responsible for while with Wwe?

[@jackstraw5489]

I remember seeing that statue every Saturday morning when wrestling came on

[@GrizzlyCountry]

A great interview and after watching this I had to make Gorgeous George CAW for my W2K14 game... guess who I had to cut to make room for Gorgeous George? Hannibal haha...
