Jeff Jarrett says it's all in the execution.
The Invasion is one of the most memorable, if not controversial, storylines in recent memory, as WCW and ECW stars invaded WWF programming and battled the company's talent. It all culminated at Survivor Series 2001, and the WWF won. Over two decades later, TNA and NXT are working together, as stars from the two shows continue to cross back and forth. Some fans have buzzed about a potential crossover show or even an invasion angle.
Speaking on My World with Jeff Jarrett, the WWE Hall of Famer was asked whether a TNA invasion angle could work in 2024.
“Execution is everything. The short answer is, absolutely it can. When I think back in the territory era, the different kind of invasion angles, done correctly, if you really want to think about Randy Savage and him [Jerry] Lawler, that feud, Savage stepping into the Memphis studios, people knew that he had ran another promotion. The invasion angle can always be done differently. I think, at the end of the day, the most successful invasion angle, I truly think the nWo, was an invasion angle. People thought, ‘Okay, here’s a band of folks that all made their name in the WWF at the time, and they’re taking over.’ It obviously popped a huge number and [had] massive success, but it just depends on the execution of it all. I think it could," Jarrett said.
