Jeff Jarrett On If Chyna Should Be Inducted Into The WWE Hall Of Fame This Year

It’s always tough when a wrestling star passes away and last year the wrestling world lost one of a kind when we said goodbye to Chyna. Throughout the course of her career Chyna blazed a trail for other women to follow and she managed to become the first woman to ever hold the Intercontinental Title as well as the first woman to compete in the Royal Rumble.

Jeff Jarrett was the man that Chyna defeated to win the Intercontinental Championship for the first time, and Jeff recently spoke to The Huffington Post about his future with Impact Wrestling and more. During the interview Jeff was asked about whether or not he thinks Chyna should be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame this year and he made it clear that he does.

“The Hall of Fame is subjective and the buck stops with one man like every other decision in that organization. It’s Vince’s opinion. Everyone can have an opinion, its truly worthless when it comes to the Hall of Fame. If Vince wants them in, they’re in and if out, they’re out. When you talk about importance of being ground-breaking, Chyna certainly was so unique and instrumental – she was one of those characters that defined the Attitude Era, so the simple answer is absolutely.”

Jeff Jarrett recently return to Impact Wrestling but he has not appeared on screen. Jarrett was also asked if he has plans to get involved in any of the upcoming storylines and he noted that he’s happy staying backstage for now.

“Not at this time! I’m enjoying wearing what we’ll call the promotor and businessman hats. The guitar is always close by but that’s not in my plans right now…”

Impact Wrestling airs Thursday nights on POP TV and the WWE Hall of Fame induction ceremony is set to air March 31st on the WWE Network.
