UPDATE x 5: Here are two videos coming out of tonight’s iMPACT! Wrestling. The first features Jarrett commenting on his return to TNA while the second is Jarrett and Dixie Carter hugging it out backstage at the show:

UPDATE x 4: It looks like there is more to Jeff Jarrett’s surprise return at Wednesday’s live edition of TNA iMPACT! Wrestling than meets the eye.

Court Bauer, a former WWE creative team member, spoke of a rumor that he caught wind of regarding Jarrett being in the middle of an attempt to buy majority ownership of TNA Wrestling, a deal that could be the one Jarrett has been referring to on social media recently.

Additionally, it’s worth pointing out that there is talk of a TNA-Global Force Wrestling merger of some sort, however that is strictly rumor and speculation until otherwise confirmed.

Several are also pointing to the fact that TNA has brought back the “King of the Mountain” gimmick match that Jarrett made popular in the first place, for their upcoming TNA Slammiversary show, a match that Jarrett will be involved in at this Sunday’s pay-per-view.

Currently, representatives of both TNA and GFW are refusing to comment at this time. Once more information on this story becomes available, you can be sure you will hear it here first.

UPDATE x 3: GFW founders Jeff Jarrett and Karen Jarrett made their TNA returns at Wednesday night’s TNA iMACT! Wrestling.

Jeff Jarrett will be wrestling in the “King of the Mountain” gimmick match at this Sunday’s TNA Slammiversary 2015 PPV event.

Also on the show were Vader and Matt Morgan.

We should have more on this story in the near future.

UPDATE x 2: Here are some additional photos of Matt Morgan, Jeff and Karen Jarrett and Vader at this week’s TNA iMPACT! Wrestling TV tapings. Hernandez also returned as well:

UPDATE: Lending a crapton of credence to the rumor that Jeff Jarrett is possibly buying TNA, reports from fans in attendance at the show revealed that Jarrett was at iMPACT! and showed up in the ring. You can see a pic below of Jarrett with a GFW shirt on.

Obviously this doesn’t confirm that Jarrett is buying TNA; there may be some kind of working relationship between the two companies or an “invasion” style storyline. But it certainly raises a lot of speculation.

ORIGINAL: Okay folks, so let’s all be clear; this is a rumor and there isn’t a lot of solid information for it at this time. There is, however, some speculation based on circumstantial evidence. As mentioned by Court Bauer on MLW Radio, there is a rumor going around that Jeff Jarrett is attempting to buy majority control in TNA.

Bauer was clear that this was just a rumor and not anything he knew as fact. It would conceivably fit with all the teases that Jarrett has been making over the last few days about a big potential deal for GFW. The rumors suggest that it could be a merger between GFW and TNA, and even suggest that he could appear on iMPACT! tonight to announce the news.

Jarrett has yet to reply to requests for comment on the rumors.
