Jimmy Jacobs On His In-Ring Future: I’ll Put On Tights If People Ask Me To
Jimmy Jacobs comments on his in-ring future.
Jacobs, who recently signed with AEW in a producer role, has been a part-time wrestler throughout the past number of years.
While appearing on the most recent episode of AEW Unrestricted, which was seemingly recorded before his recent match in Ring Of Honor, Jacobs said that he’ll put on tights if people ask him to.
“Yeah, I’ll put on tights if people ask me to. Depending on when this airs, maybe I’ll have had a match recently already, you know, or maybe not. I don’t know, I can’t tell the future.”
Jacobs went on to say that he couldn’t be at the peak of his career if he was just an in-ring performer.
“The last shows I did, I did a ten day tour in Canada for my buddy Danny at the beginning of May. Ten days in a row, and I’m fine. Look, I couldn’t be at the peak of my career if that’s what I wanted. If I wanted to be an in-ring performer, I’m 39 years old, I couldn’t be in the peak of my career. I just don’t want to do that work. I don’t want to do the work it takes to perform at a high level, I just don’t, that’s not what I’m interested in. I’m super busy with AEW, but if and when there’s time in my schedule, if someone’s like, ‘Hey Jimmy, you want to put on tights and play?’ Of course I do.”
Elsewhere in the interview, Jacobs revealed that Bryan Danielson brought him into AEW. Fans can learn more by clicking here.
