Well, I guess that answers that.
Unrelated to that, two things enter my mind:
1) I liked Jeff Jarrett. As hokey as his initial gimmick was, it was annoying in the way a pop song gets stuck in your head and you start singing it involuntarily.
All things being equal, he's certainly more Hall of Fame memorable than Koko fucking B. Ware even basing things *solely* on his WWE career. With everything he's done and everywhere he's been, he's had enough of an impact (I seriously didn't mean that as a pun and just noticed the wording as I wrote it) on the wrestling business that I see no reason *why* he shouldn't have gotten the nod at all... "nWo 2000" notwithstanding.
Jarrett also was one of those beneficiaries of the Monday Night War, where his multiple jumps pushed him further up the card (I honestly felt that another person who could have gotten the same benefits if he weren't so damned loyal was D-Lo Brown), and had he not done so, feels like he would be one of those "why was he inducted?" head scratchers.
2) I guess the WWE HoF is the first place that Jeff Jarrett has gone that Jacquiline has gone first. Allegedly.
