First Raw Match: 29th November, 1993

Last Raw Match: 4th February, 2019

Jeff Jarrett's Monday Night Raw match in 2019 was somehow the least shocking 'Double J' related tale from the time, with his Royal Rumble return days earlier as well as news of WWE giving him an office role sending those that remembered his prior relations with WWE into a right old tizzy.

There's perhaps a begrudging respect for his industrious guile, but it shouldn't be confused with the sincere one for his in-ring work at various points throughout a long career.

Polished - perhaps to a fault - in 1993 as the country music star-turned-WWE Superstar, Jarrett looked destined for the Intercontinental Championship level he eventually achieved, but his acrimonious 1999 exit rendered him a footnote for nearly two decades until he was completely divorced from the rival organisation he founded in 2002. Impact Wrestling had moved on, but when it came to Vince McMahon's good graces, the company's former leader had somehow moved back in.
