An AEW veteran has grabbed fans’ attention after making a major reference to The Undertaker on social media. The veteran had a notable feud with the Deadman during his prime years.
That veteran is Jeff Jarrett, who has been part of the wrestling industry for over three decades in various roles, including but not limited to wrestler, producer, and promoter. The 58-year-old joined AEW in November 2022, taking on the role of Director of Business Development. In his early years, he even performed on-screen for the Jacksonville-based promotion, although he has not been seen on the company’s programming for quite some time now. Outside of All Elite Wrestling, Jarrett is known for memorable stints in TNA, WCW, and WWE, and recently recalled a rivalry he had with the legendary Undertaker during his time with the Stamford-based promotion.
Taking to Instagram, Jarrett uploaded a photo from 1997 to his stories showing him and the Deadman, whom he faced at the D-Generation X: In Your House show. The 58-year-old defeated Pheonam by disqualification that night.

Jeff Jarrett recently reached a major AEW milestone
Jeff Jarrett recently celebrated a major milestone in Tony Khan’s promotion last month. On November 3, Double J marked three years with the Jacksonville-based promotion. Many users on social media highlighted this achievement, recalling his in-ring debut for All Elite Wrestling, where he teamed with Jay Lethal and lost to Sting and Darby Allin.
It is worth noting that Jarrett’s in-ring appearances in Tony Khan’s promotion have featured some notable matches, including a showdown with Death Riders’ member Claudio Castagnoli. A win in that match would have earned him a shot at Jon Moxley. However, Jarrett lost to the Swiss Superstar, which would be his last contest in AEW.
