On a recent edition of his “What Happened When” podcast, AEW broadcaster Tony Schiavone discussed Jeff Jarrett’s recent match with Bryan Danielson in AEW and praised the WWE Hall of Famer for his longevity in the business.

Danielson defeated Jarrett in an Anything Goes Match on AEW Dynamite earlier this month.

You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:

On Bryan Danielson vs. Jeff Jarrett: “Double J just put it all on the line. Bryan always does, that’s no surprise there. Double J did. [I] went back and talked to him after the show and saw that he was bleeding, and I said, ‘I want to thank you for putting your health on the line to give us a good show.’ He looked at me and kind of smiled. I said, ‘No, I’m serious, I really am,’ and I shook his hand, it’s something I do all the time. He just stepped up big time, which is not a surprise [to] anyone who knows Jeff Jarrett.”

On Jarrett’s longevity: “The longevity in the sport for Jeff Jarrett is because of how great of a performer that he has been throughout the years. I know obviously his family was involved in wrestling, so he was kind of born into the business and he ran TNA at one time, so he’s kind of been in charge. But he comes back to AEW and I think performs admirably. I’ve loved everything that Jeff Jarrett has done since he’s arrived. Jeff Jarrett, you don’t think this, but when you get to know him, you realize how much of a pro he really is. He’s the ultimate pro, and I’m so glad that he is able to perform on a high level still, and so happy I’ve gotten to know Jeff and Karen and Cody and the whole crew. It’s been great. Congratulations [to] Jeff Jarrett to give us this match leading into Wembley.”

On fans singing his name at AEW All In 2024: “If you go back and watch it, I had my sister watch it the other day when she was here … I’m standing there in the ring and I start to talk. These fans start singing my name. Singing my f**king … singing my name! I told Lois [his sister] I said, ‘I’ve never experienced anything like that in my entire career,’ to the point where I looked at her and I said, ‘You never sung my name, b***h.’”
