Episode 236: Why The Attitude Era Ruined Wrestling

On this episode of My World with Jeff Jarrett, Jeff lets the listeners take full control in a no-holds-barred Ask Jeff Anything. Jeff dives into what happens when a fan goes completely off the rails—leading to a memorable moment punctuated with a firm reminder: "MARK!" Then, he reflects on his legendary run in Mexico and why the heat he generated knew no bounds, breaking down the fine art of being a true heel and why "heels need to heel." The conversation turns deeper as Jeff tackles whether the Attitude Era pushed wrestling too far, arguing that at times, "wrestling got too real." From there, he shifts to the modern landscape, explaining why social media now holds the power to shape the industry's next breakout star. Jeff also gives listeners a behind-the-scenes look at the purpose of TNA's Gut Check and how it was designed to build the company's future from the ground up. All that plus so much more on this edition of my World with Jeff Jarrett.
