Popular AEW star recalls how he got to know Bray Wyatt
A popular AEW name recently recalled his memories of Bray Wyatt and spoke about how he got to know him.
The name in question is none other than Jeff Jarrett. The former WCW star is currently signed to All Elite Wrestling, he did however have a stint in WWE from 2019 to 2022 where he worked backstage as the Senior Vice President of live events and also had a hand in creative.
Speaking on his My World podcast, the AEW star talked about the memories of Bray Wyatt that he will never forget.
"It was almost kind of like a revelation to me," Jarrett said. "Somewhat of a lightbulb. [At] WWE, we had just finished a creative session late into the night, and let's just say it was a Wednesday night, I think. Conrad, I'm talking 1 a.m. Late, late, and the chairman Vince [McMahon] says, 'Hey, Jeff, we got live events coming up; why don't you step into my office?' ... And so I go in there, we go over the card, the order of the matches, and all that. Man, I wish I could exactly remember, but it's Bray and Seth Rollins." H/T:[WrestlingInc]
