Turning him face for him to win the tournament and then retire on Dynamite the Wednesday after.

So glad he gets to be in this tournament.

I don't think I stopped crying for the rest of the night.

For those that didn't know the night Owen had that fatal accident Jeff Jarrett had his scheduled match right after. One can only imagine having a match seconds after watching him being pushed passed on a stretcher.

I just gained so much respect for jeff after this,I'm rooting for you!

Jeff Jarrett doing it for his best friend Owen! RIP Owen Hart ❤

Through his podcast My World I discovered an entire different side of Jeff that I never knew. I've been watching wrestling since I was 8 years old in 1983. I remember watching Jeff on the old USWA show, then on into WWF & WCW, etc. Always a great wrestler in the ring, I just never knew the heart and personality he possessed outside of it.

I loved this emotional heartfelt from Jeff Jarrett about Owen Hart, especially because of how close they were back in the 90s, and the many road trips they shared when they traveled together throughout the 90s. This was probably Jarrett's most emotional interview ever 25 years later about the late Owen Hart. The memories of Owen Hart will always be cherished and never forgotten. 🩷🖤🙏🏽🕊

promo of the year.

Danielson v Jarrett in the finals! Do it for the sickos!!!!!

Jeff just needs a hug.

Geeze, I NEED Jeff Jarrett to win. That was heartbreaking and inspiring at the same time.

Two things I remember about that PPV back in 99 - Jeff Jarrett backstage and couldn’t cut a promo, instead he just prayed for Owen and begged for him to pull thru, and JR and The King having to announce Owen passsed

I am honestly so sincerely and legitimately emotionally invested in Jarrett in this tournament. I was invested as soon as I found out he was entered. This just seals it.

Owen and double j was a amazing team I enjoyed watching because they told their stories through the matches yes the heart storyline was good but these 2 were like the ant heroes that you loves to watch so thank you double j for the great entertainment

Thanks for sharing this with everyone, Jeff.

For all the dumb-asses online that post crap like "Why is Jeff Jarrett in the tournament?" or "Jeff Jarrett doesn't deserve to be in the tournament... blah blah blah." The reason why Double J is in it, is because he was a co-WWF tag-team champion with Owen Hart. I think this video speaks for itself.

I have never been a Jeff Jarrett wrestling fan i like his outside stuff but with that said i hope he shows this emotion in the Cup

This was so raw... definitely made me tear up. Jeff has got to win this tournament!

If AEW really wants to 'restore the feeling' it needs more of THIS... real emotion, real pro wrestling
