In one of the recent sessions of the “My World” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Jeff Jarrett discussed the tenure of Matt Morgan at TNA Wrestling, pointing out cues as to why The Blueprint’s career didn’t skyrocket as predicted.
The following highlights extracted from the podcast and their implications were discussed:
Jarrett disclosed his thoughts on TNA never discovering the ideal mouthpiece for Matt Morgan: “We’ve often debated how timing is pivotal,” he began. He proceeded to compare Morgan’s case with that of Frankie Kazarian, asserting that despite having the whole package, being overshadowed by others in a roster packed full of quality like AJ Styles is a compelling possibility. His key point about Morgan, a towering figure standing at 6’10”, was the need to let him hold the spotlight. “In some periods of our industry, opportunities present themselves while they’re scarce in others,” he said, expressing regret that it didn’t quite work out for Morgan, whose stint didn’t resonate with the fans as planned.
Jarrett shared his thoughts on the tenure of Stevie Richards in TNA: Richards, known for being an exercise enthusiast, held a special place for Jarrett on a personal level, founded on their mutual love for cardiovascular workouts. He recollected Richard’s journey in the industry, specifically his time while portraying Abyss, a mental patient character. Jarrett confessed that trying to reinvent Abyss didn’t go as planned, with Richards caught amid the transition.
