Jeff Jarrett and Chael Sonnen and GFW

Jeff and Karen Jarrett have started a new pro wrestling federation called Global Force Wrestling, and their expert analyst is Chael Sonnen, and rumors are they are trying to get good ole JR (Jim Ross) for their color guy.

He won't do it (at least I don't think so)
Even if they pay him exuberantly

Jim Ross still had WWE endeavors and opportunities he could have done (and gotten paid extremely well with limited travel) and he still refused

JR did call a wrestling show from Japan at the beginning of the year, which had Jarrett on there, thus why the rumor's. I'd love to hear JR back on commentary. Still the best in the biz the last 25 years.

From the interview, it sounds like GFW is Jarrett's attempt at a do-over for what didn't happen with NWA TNA. I had originally hoped that by tying in with the NWA that TNA would be the flagship of the NWA and showcase all the best NWA talent. Instead, they started the promotion by stripping all of the NWA World titles, putting some of the worst gimmicks possible (Cheex and The Johnsons) and quickly succumbing to WCW backstage political nonsense. That inaugural show was horrible, and seemed like a real slap in the face to the NWA. But, then at the time, the NWA was completely irrelevant to 90% of wrestling fans, and they completely failed to leverage TNA's visibility to increase the awareness of the rest of the NWA promotions.

Hopefully Jarrett learns from all of that nonsense and focuses on the actual in-ring product and keeps all of those WCW cancers at arm's length.
