Jeff Jarrett Comments on Hulk Hogan Having Creative Control in TNA & Manipulating Dixie Carter

A recent episode of the My World with Jeff Jarrett podcast featured co-host Jeff Jarrett giving his thoughts about WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan’s tenure in TNA Wrestling and Hogan having creative control and him manipulating then TNA President Dixie Carter.

“Well, Hulk Hogan had creative control, folks. It’s just a bunch of bullsh*t. The manipulation that guy did to Dixie Carter and Dixie, look, she has to take full responsibility. She didn’t know what she was signing up for but, the results speaks for it all. Yes, he put himself on every show. It’s a bunch of crap if you say anything different. He had creative control and he would be on the shows when he wanted to be on the shows. End of story.”
