Backstage Argument During Impact Wrestling Tapings

During Sunday’s set of TV tapings for Impact Wrestling, a backstage argument between the Jarretts and Impact executive Bob Ryder lead to speculation that Ryder was fired.

PWInsider’s Mike Johnson reported the incident started between Karen Jarrett and Bob Ryder over the booking of hotel rooms and then spiraled into a larger heated argument with Jeff Jarrett getting involved. Supposedly Jeff Jarrett was upset at his wife storming out of the tapings and yelled at Ryder to immediately leave the building.

Prior to all three leaving while tapings were still going on, another heated argument occurred in the parking lot leading to speculation from those at the scene Ryder was getting fired. After some cooling off, Ryder ended up not getting fired and things causing the arguments were settled on Monday according to PWI’s sources.

Besides Impact officials trying to downplay the incident, Ryder himself also downplayed the seriousness.

Much adieu about nothing. All is well.
