WWE Hall of Famer Jeff Jarrett recently spoke on his podcast, “My World,” about a variety of professional wrestling topics including believing Bryan Danielson is the best storyteller in modern wrestling:

“I think he is the very best storyteller in modern wrestling. I think he has a unique ability. I believe on last night’s card (AEW All Out), it’s the one match that people had no idea that it was going to have the impact on the night that it did. I can’t say enough good things about it. He is an unbelievable storyteller, brutal straps and everything that goes with it, and you know, there was interference and whatever you want to get into it, but that place was rocking. They loved it and it was brutally hard, and I’m, you know, personally happy for Starks. Guys coming up in this business, you know, you look back on different careers, you know, I think Kurt gave it to Cena. Scott Hall gave me a match that, okay, okay. There’s certain matches that you have with older veterans or guys that are already up on top that they’re irreplaceable. I believe that match is irreplaceable in Ricky Starks’ career. I think it will be. I think it’s gonna stand the test of time like oh wow, and look at the circumstances that had happened. Had not all of the other set of circumstances happened, he’d never had this opportunity. So the grand weave, you never ever know what is gonna come down the pike next.”

If he thinks this is the last we’ve heard of CM Punk in the wrestling industry:

“This sounds so repetitive. Never say never, in so many different ways. There’s also another saying that, from my personal experience, bs, and nowadays, the perspective, the lens that I, you know, really look at things through is what a massive difference in, do you want it or do you need it? We want a lot of things, but what do we really need? There’s just a difference in all that and, you know, in our in our industry, in my life, there are so many times that I look back on and go, “Man, that was a really dark day’, and it turns out it is the dawning of a new day that some of the greatest things happened. Who knows what the future holds for all parties involved, literally all parties involved.”
