Jeff Jarrett recently made his return to WWE programming, and this week on Raw the Hall of Famer faced off against Elias.
Double J didn’t manage to pick up the win on Monday night, but he did set a new record for longest gap between competing in matches on Raw.
According to the WWE Stats Twitter account, Zeb Colter previously held the record with 16 years, 3 months, and 23 days in between matches.
Jeff Jarrett set a new record of 19 years, 4 months and 8 days on Monday.
It’s also worth noting that Jeff Jarrett became the 15th WWE Hall of Famer to wrestle a match on Raw after being inducted.
