On the latest episode of his My World podcast, Jeff Jarrett gave a deep dive into his dislike for the finish to John Cena’s final match.
Following his lambasting on social media of how Cena’s match against Gunther went at Saturday Night’s Main Event, the WWE Hall of Famer detailed his criticism further on the show:
My family’s been in the business since 1946. I’ve got three generations of stories, not just from a wrestler’s point of view, but from a business point of view over and over and over. This mythical, time-honored tradition – that is the biggest bunch of bulls–t I’ve ever heard.
Jarrett went on to call the moment the “single dumbest finish” in the history of wrestling and a “slap in the face” to the industry, adding:
‘Never Give Up.’ Do you know how impactful it is if I’m in a room full of bankers or TV executives or friends or whoever it may be, and I can look them in the face and say do you know who holds the record for the most Make-A-Wish visits in the history of that organization? It’s a professional wrestler. Yes, it’s John Cena.
His whole mantra, hustle, loyalty, respect. Never give up. And you’re going to give this bulls–t that we got to get heat on a heel in a time-honored tradition? It’s the silliest, most ridiculous argument that people are throwing up.
