On the latest episode of the “My World With Jeff Jarrett” podcast, the WWE Hall of Famer reflected on whether The Dudleys were ever considered for inclusion in the Main Event Mafia, a group comprising wrestling legends like Sting, Kurt Angle, Booker T, Scott Steiner, and Kevin Nash.
Jarrett clarified that The Dudleys’ magic as a true tag team unit made them unsuitable for the Main Event Mafia’s already established roster of five former World Heavyweight Champions. He said,
“No. Too big a group. Their magic I believe, is truly Bubba and Devon. I just think they’re dynamic in promos, and they’re dynamic in the ring. And their chemistry and their history. They work together to me as a true tag team unit. On the Main Event Mafia side, the number that we landed on was five. And I know Sting was that outlier. I think it just put that group over the top. But Kurt and Kevin and Booker and Scott, those guys, all former World Heavyweight Champions, that was kind of the mark to get in the club, you will, and staying again, being the outlier being, I don’t wanna call him the tweener, but is it really gonna fit where we’re done telling the story? And it did fit in so many different ways. But Team 3D was never thought to go in the Main Event Mafia.”
