Jeffrey Leonard "Jeff" Jarrett (1967-) is a rather divisive pro wrestler, active in WCW and WWF, and the founder of TNA, he's a career heel known for his smarmy, cowardly nature.Oh, and he's an Eleven Time World Champion. That Other Wiki has a page documenting his career and life. He has served as a pro wrestler since 1986.
Tropes found in J-E-Double-F J-A-Double-R-E-Double T's life and career:
Catch Phrase: Loves to call opponents "slap nuts." No idea why.
"Ain't I great?" and "That's J, E, double F, J, A, double R, E , double T... I'm double J, Jeff Jarrett!" during his first WWF run.
After he had his head shaved by X-Pac, he adapted "DON'T PISS ME OFF!" as his new catchphrase.
Combat Pragmatist: Is very adept at cheating, of course, he does have a quarter century of wrestling experience.
Cool Old Guy: 43 and busting out Ranas and Missile Dropkicks.
Deadpan Snarker: Oh, he's had his moments. He once walked into the ring with fans chanting "DROP THE TITLE!", and he proceeded to literally do just that.
Mean Character, Nice Actor: Jarrett is apparently a loving father of five, including step-children by Karen.
Miles Gloriosus: During his 2010-2011 feuds with Samoa Joe and Kurt Angle, Jarrett started to hype himself up as a prolific MMA fighter and held MMA "training" sessions in the ring where he'd basically use simple MMA holds to torture whatever poor sap was dumb enough to become his lackey. Any real competition from men like Joe or Kurt and Jeff was doing everything possible to worm his way out.
Nice Hat: Wore a rather flashy one during his first run in the then-WWF.
Non-Singing Voice: In the WWF, Jarrett was exposed as not singing his own theme song. It was done by The Roadie (AKA "The Road Dogg" Jesse James, of D-Generation X fame).
Smug Snake: He's a very old school, cowardly sneaky heel.
Small Name, Big Ego: Adding to his sliminess, Jarrett will brag like all hell.
Unperson: He is one of the few wrestlers who's currently been Unpersoned in the WWF/E. The story behind it goes like this: Jeff's contract was set to expire a day before the pay-per-view on which he was booked to lose the Intercontinental Title to Chyna. Under no obligation to work the show and feeling that losing to Chyna would make him look bad, Jeff gave Vince an ultimatum: either he would get paid more money for doing the job, or he would leave the company without dropping the title. McMahon paid him what he asked, but has held a grudge against Jarrett for it ever since. His father, Jerry Jarrett, is a different story; he has a strong relationship with the McMahons, and he revealed in a 2010 interview that Vince McMahon gave his condolences to him after his wife died.
Writer on Board: In the early days of TNA, Jarrett hogged the NWA title like there was no tomorrow. Fans, annoyed that Jarrett was essentially abusing his power as owner of TNA, screamed "DROP THE TITLE" at him. Since TNA defected from the NWA and built their own world championship, Jarrett's stayed away from the title scene.
