Former TNA commentator Todd Keneley was interviewed recently on The Shoot radio show, and one of the questions, naturally, concerned the man who was the driving force behind the company’s founding, jeff jarrett.
Keneley called Jarrett’s decision to leave the company that he founded a “big head-turner.”
“I mean, here’s a guy that really put himself out there, founded that company, took a chance did the weekly PPVs, got on Fox Sports at one point, eventually teamed up with the Carters, got on Spike TV. You think about the roller coaster this guy went through and the sacrifices he made to keep that company around. It’s unbelievable so to walk away from it. It’s got to be for a good reason, one would think,” Keneley said.
Keneley is among those who hope that the rumors that Jarrett is thinking of starting his own company turn out to be true.
“You read the rumors that he’s going to start his own thing, and we’ll see. I honestly hope he does, because the more variety and more opportunity for talented people in this business to get work, be seen and make a living, the better,” Keneley said. “He’s obviously got a great mind for the business, but yeah that’s one where if you followed TNA from day one, then he’s the guy who started it all so you gotta look at it and say whats going on here.”
