Fans were shocked to see Jeff Jarrett’s debut on the November 2nd episode of AEW Dynamite, along with his signature guitar. What was even more shocking was when Tony Khan announced him as the new Director of Business Development in a tweet hours later.
According to the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, house shows are not on AEW’s agenda right now, but Double J is around for those possible plans. Meltzer would also note several talent in the company have expressed an interest in the promotion running house shows.
“Behind the scenes, Jarrett’s role is to both help AEW when it comes to international business, as well as possibly house shows. Right now there are no definitive plans for AEW to do house shows, but a lot of the wrestlers on the roster would like to wrestle more and have expressed interest in them.”

Jarrett was let go by WWE in August of this year from a similar role within the company. Time will tell if we will see house shows in the future for AEW.
