Jeff Jarrett thinks WWE could reuse characters like The Undertaker someday.
Speaking on My World with Jeff Jarrett, the WWE Hall of Famer answered various questions from fans. In one highlight, he was asked whether he thinks that other people could reprise characters like The Undertaker or Kane in the future because WWE owns them. Co-host Conrad Thompson noted that AAA follows this approach and questioned whether the new TKO leadership could greenlight a second Undertaker of some sort.
“Buddy, timing is everything, and creative is subjective. But can you imagine, and again, when I say timing, I’m not talking about the mechanics of a match. I’m talking about the whole essence of a storyline and the build, and again, you have, I’ll just use…can you imagine the right set of circumstances, the gong go off, the Undertaker’s gong? Look, Mark’s doing one-man shows now, and he’s very active, [he has a] podcast and all that. So maybe today the time isn’t right, I don’t know. But do I think it’s a real possibility? I think it’s almost a guarantee [that someone else does the Undertaker character]," Jarrett said.
Jarrett then noted that reusing characters works successfully in Mexico, and there are multiple examples of it. He also stated that doing so, in this instance, would not be possible without the greatness of the original Undertaker.
“It wouldn’t be possible, in this case, without Mark’s incredible run. Same with, there’s multiple situations and instances in Mexico with this. It’s the nature of the beast. As a creative guy, man, that would be fun to write and book and everything that goes with it," Jarrett said.
During the podcast, Jarrett also stated that he has not thought about the end of his in-ring career. Check out his comments here.
