Jarrett emphasized that a real pro wrestler should be able to adapt and work with anyone, regardless of their background. He also praised AEW for involving celebrities in their recent PPV event, Revolution, and mentioned WWE’s long history of celebrity involvement in wrestling, from Cyndi Lauper at the first WrestleMania to rapper Travis Scott’s surprise attack on Cody Rhodes at a recent event.
