Jeff Jarrett On Fan’s Perception Of Vince McMahon: ‘There’s A Lot Of Misinformation and Mistruths’

Jeff Jarrett says not everything is as it seems in professional wrestling… or with a certain WWE Chairman.

WWE Hall of Famer Jeff Jarrett recently appeared on The Angle Podcast and says he believes that there’s a lot of ‘misinformation and mistruths’ when it comes to the fan’s perception of Vince McMahon.

“There’s nothing I or anyone else could say because we live in a completely different reality with the Instagram models, we could really go off the rails here, but it’s a completely different world and that the wrestling fan is more educated today than they’ve ever been and there’s transparency and unless you’ve literally been in the seat, and for wrestling fans it’s what they read, what they see, I think there’s a lot of misinformation and mistruths. I always go back to this, at the end of the day, business is business and there’s two types of ink, red and black and Vince has been in the black a long time, so his decisions collectively are very successful. Here’s sort of the magic of our industry that everyone knows Steve Jobs or Warren Buffett, all of these dynamic CEOs. They don’t ever come out on their own product and play this heel role like the evil Vince McMahon the chairman did. It’s one of the greatest heel personas ever in our entire industry.”

Jarrett also spoke about his recent run as a backstage producer in WWE, noting that he did a little bit of everything. Jarrett also said that despite all of the voices behind the scenes, the buck still stops with one person.

“I came back in, and I’ve never really gone into this, but really I came back to join the team and my time there, it was creative, it was live events, it was international, a little bit of production here and there. I worked with multiple departments, but at the end of the day, it’s no secret that one person writes the show, it’s one person’s visions and everything around it is support and candidly he’s built a billion-dollar empire that way and through the years, whether it was Pat. Paterson, Sandy Scott, or Bruce Prichard all in a support role and at the end of the day, it’s Vince’s vision.”
