Jeff Jarrett continues to stay busy, but he’s not ready to slow down just yet.
Jarrett spoke with WrestleZone’s Ella Jay about his role as advisor with Acclaim. The iconic video game publisher recently announced new details about its relaunch, and Jarrett shared his excitement about putting his promoter’s hat on in a new way.
“We’re early in the process, but at the end of the day, in my DNA, I’m a promoter. I create awareness, create anticipation. At the very core of it, that’s what I do. I’ve never professed to be this gaming expert, so to speak, and certainly not in the business world of gaming. I’m not an expert, but I can promote, I can market,” Jarrett explained.
“I like to think, ‘How do I make this good idea, great?’ With the team that we’ve all put together, that’s my role. That is what I do. Coming out of our conversation today, obviously, my hope is, and you dress it all up, but at the end of the day, the Showcase took place on the 10th, and we’re off and running. It looks like 2026 is going to be, in so many ways, just a crazy, wildly successful year with release after release after release, a little bit of everything in there, but it’s exciting.”
Will Jeff Jarrett get invited to Taylor Swift’s wedding?
Jarrett has been open about how Taylor Swift was his family’s babysitter before she broke out in music and became a megastar. However, Jarrett recently went viral after sharing how Swift once did a private, three-hour performance for his first wife, Jill, while she was battling breast cancer. Jarrett says he’s told the story before, but is still amazed at how some elements took on a life of their own.
“It’s the world we live in. I have told that exact same story, almost verbatim, for multiple years when people asked me special moments and all that. It’s funny how now it’s tuned into she played a concert. I don’t think there was any backup singers or dancers or I didn’t see her drummer that day. It was Taylor and her guitar as a teenage girl playing here at the house.
“This latest interview all started with her nuptials, if you will. That’s what I’m most excited about. I can’t wait to see little Taylors running around. I think she’s going to, if and when the time comes, be a great mom. But I’m excited for her to take this interpersonal life the next step of the engagement.”
Jarrett was then informed that he’s on a list of betting odds of potential guests at Swift’s highly anticipated wedding to Travis Kelce. Jeff currently has 3/1 (+300) odds of scoring an invite.
“I hope you’re kidding, I hope you’re kidding,” Jeff replied.
The bigger question — would he accept the invitation?
“Oh, of course. She’s a hometown girl. Scott and Andrea, her parents, they’re just elated. It’s a really cool moment. I know she’s the most famous pop star in the world,” Jarrett said. “But at the end of the day, she’s a native Hendersonville girl who loves to play music. Candidly, the singer songwriter of her generation, so it’s pretty cool.”
