FOX Business has a new article up that looks at the new Global Force Wrestling that is being founded by Jeff Jarrett. The article mentions that Global Force Wrestling is still without a TV deal. When asking about if the recent WWE stock plunge would hurt pro wrestling, Jarrett said the following:
“I’m not nervous at all. Investors may be disappointed but the increase in rights and TV fees speaks volumes as to how much interest is in the wrestling world. If you want proof of how big wrestling is, just look at Hollywood. The Rock went to Hollywood and came back to the WWE 10 years later as the hottest actor in the world. He’s a third-generation wrestler, as I am, and he’s the hottest box office attraction out there.”
