The alt-rock band Send Request decided to make the music video for their song Dr. Dare Rides Again wrestling-themed. This is strange enough as the song has nothing to do with wrestling and not even a passing reference to any tangential media, but the video takes things a step further by including a cameo appearance from J E Double-F J A Double-R E Double-T himself.

After seeing an invigorating wrestling commercial in a bar, the four band members decide to take up the craft at a nearby wrestling school. Scenes of them performing the song in a ring are inter-cut with a montage of them getting their rears handed to them on silver platters by a quartet of burly, intimidating men.

But wait, what's this?

Scenes from a locker room where a grizzled veteran of the industry laces up his boots, puts on a colourful vest, and picks up a black guitar? Could this mean what we all obviously know it means?

Indeed, Jeff Jarrett comes to the ring like a saving angle, here to save the band from their torment. The musicians are at their lowest point as Jeff stands in the corner. And just as it looks like he's going to save them from ultimate defeat...he smashes the guitar over one of their heads and proceeds to humiliate them. How remarkably on brand.
