Jeff Jarrett Undergoes Surgery To Have Molar Removed, Jokes About AEW Roster Targeting New Weak Spot

Jeff Jarrett has dental surgery. 

Jeff Jarrett has wrestled for decades and won over 80 championships, but has never been so injured in the squared circle to the point where he needed to undergo surgery. He did, however, need to undergo an immediate dental procedure recently as he had a molar that needed to be removed and due to the nature of his schedule with AEW it was decided not to put off the procedure for longer than necessary. 

“I had woke up yesterday morning, it kind of bothered me through the weekend, but I had a very very back molar that had to go. I never had a cavity in my life. I always had good luck there. It was just a tooth had to go. I had an implant put in. We talked root canal and all kinds of stuff and [the dentist], ‘What’s your schedule this week?’ I said, ‘Oh, I fly to Portland, Oregon tomorrow.’ He said. ‘Okay, when you get back from that. I said, ‘Oh I’m not sure about this weekend. It’s very possible I could go to Oakland. Not real sure’ He said, ‘What about next week?’ I said, ‘Oh, that’d be Ontario and LA.’ We know each other well, and he goes, ‘So, you don’t have anything really in the foreseeable future?’ I said no and I said, ‘Let’s go for it. Just get it out,’ and he said,  ‘Are you up for it?’ I said, Let’s do a whole ball of wax,”  said Double J on his My World podcast.

Later in the podcast, Jarrett openly said that he hopes some wrestlers try to target his new teeth because he doesn’t have a glass jaw. 

“I hope they do because there’s one thing ‘The Last Outlaw’ doesn’t have and that’s a glass jaw. So let them take their best shot.” 

Other than this, Jarrett has never needed to undergo surgery but he says he’s just glad to have his health because, without health, you don’t have much. 

Jeff Jarett is currently feuding with Ring of Honor World Champion, Eddie Kingston, he recently defeated Kingston on an episode of Saturday Collision to earn a Ring of Honor World Championship Match for Jay Lethal.
