WWE Hall of Famer Jeff Jarrett, who is also All Elite Wrestling’s Director of Business Development, took to an episode of his “My World with Jeff Jarrett” podcast, where he talked about a number of topics including his favorite guitar shot.

Jarrett said, “Tanahashi, when I get down and talk about favorite guitar shots, you always kind of go with the low-hanging fruit, but I guess as far as careless to, the one I got to crack on Tanahashi is definitely a favorite because hearing a Japan audience react to a surprise one was a lot of fun. Tanahashi is one of those, when you witnessed Tanahashi in his prime in Japan, it was, without a doubt, you knew you were just kind of watching a talent that was larger than life. His work is fantastic. But his charisma always set him apart. Just fantastic.”

He also talked about Hiroshi Tanahashi’s new role as President of NJPW.

“But for him to be stepping into this role, only time will tell. I mean obviously, he’s been groomed on so many different levels, but it’s a whole different story when you’re put in the driver’s seat, so to speak. I wish him but nothing but success, everything that goes with it. Those folks were really affected hard by the pandemic in so many ways, much more so than here, and we were obviously super affected, but a lot long-term, and their business model is different. It’s so live-event-based, revenue driven, and all that. So I wish him nothing but luck.”
