IPWHF REMEMBERS LEGENDARY PROMOTER JERRY JARRETT

 

2/15/23 - ALBANY, NY - The International Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame is saddened to learn of the passing of legendary Tennessee promoter and one of wrestling's great minds, Jerry Jarrett.

Jarrett was the creative driving force behind many of the great matches in Tennessee and the surrounding territory and would later go on to be the patriarch of NWA/TNA (now Impact Wrestling).

The Jarrett legacy now lives on with Jerry's son and current AEW Star Jeff Jarrett.

The IPWHF grieves with the rest of the wrestling world. Jarrett's contribution to professional wrestling is immeasurable and his legacy will be everlasting.

Our hearts are with the Jarrett Family.

May he rest in peace.
