He’s mid 90s country singer with light up up hat and ain’t I great. Despite that has short hair and is don’t piss me off Jeff Jarrett in appearance lately. Just watched the rumble and he’s got his WCW yellow shades short hair but country singer gimmick. His theme music which I guess takes me the most out of it as I preferred don’t piss me off JJ over country guy.. That’s the theme other than my world that I associate him with.
I can’t imagine one day seeing HHH come out to his 1st theme just cause maybe do the accent again yet but be in a suit and taken seriously as an authority figure.

Yeah, I really wish he was using his Attitude Era music. Just think it's far better and it's certainly more attention-grabbing.

He's trying to combine the two but it's not working.
He needs to ditch the JJ gimmick, it's aging him badly.
Be Slapnuts Jarrett 100%.
Clearly Vince won't let him, but par for the course with that man.

Personally, I wish there was a way for them to get the rights to "My World", heh.

Maybe they tend to think of his Attitude era music as being Debra's at this point.

I'm surprised they never acknowledged his tna time yet. Did They?
When bischoff came in they acknowledged his past and it made him believable as gm. This seems like double j was some washed up mid 90s guy who is trying to still do the old gimmick. Not the guy who was main eventing against sting and angle etc in tna.

Yeah I like Jarrett. I just don’t like this gimmick. Or how they’re making it out to be like this is all he’s known for... Dude is a former WCW Champ, most people associate him with TNA. His career has long surpassed “With my baby tonight” and all that other stuff.
“Double J’s Double M A” challenge was f***ing gold. I’d have Jarrett as GM as long as they drop the whole Country Singer thing.

I just hope they don’t make him sing anymore.

When you have a gimmick as great and over-the-top as Double J, followed by a lukewarm gimmick like "angry, generic southerner who hits people with a guitar," this is like bringing in Hogan and wondering why he isn't "FUNB" Terry Bollea instead of full-on Hulkamania.

I have an easy solution: Just dont have Jarret at all.

It's baffling and somewhat insulting that they've essentially trapped JJ in time and having him rehash a seldom known gimmick from 1995. The TNA of old is dead at this point and I don't see the harm in mentioning it on air anymore. In spite of his flaws as a performer and booker he is still the man responsible for giving a platform to some of wrestling's biggest stars today and he could easily play a Bischoff-like character in the WWE.

"With my baby tonight" is associated with 1993-1996 Jeff Jarrett, and they like wheeling that song out, they did it at the HOF and then again last night, so 1993-1995 version Jarrett is who they will recognise.
1998-1999 was much better however.

Did we ever get a proper blow off match between him and Road Dogg over "With My Baby Tonight"?

I would mark for a one night return of 'Hunter Hearst Helmsley, the Greenwich Blue Blood'.... unfortunately, it wouldn't work with the baldhead and beard. I really only want to hear his original music and see him courtsy (sp?)

Jeff should be a "Tennessee Lee" type for Elias.... especially if they want Elias to be a heel.
