When the announcement that former Intercontinental champion Jeff Jarrett was to enter the 2018 WWE Hall of Fame, it was met with some surprise. The surprise was due to how he departed the company, and that he was terminated rather than being invited to rejoin WWE when it purchased WCW.

During his time with WWE, Jarrett had notable feuds with several WWE Hall of Famers. He also feuded with 2017 WWE Hall of Fame inductee Kurt Angle outside the company. Angle and Jarrett had several memorable matches against one another while they were in TNA together.

The situation could easily be described as personal for both parties. Karen Jarrett, Jeff's wife, was married to Kurt for a number of years before the two divorced in 2008, and the couple had two children together.

While both have moved on that doesn't mean there still aren't tied to one another, thus tying Jarrett to Angle. Jarrett is the stepfather to the two children Kurt had with Karen, In addition to being a father himself to a daughter he had with his late wife Jill in 2007.
