Former WWE Tag-Team Champion Road Dogg Will Induct Jeff Jarrett Into The Hall Of Fame Class Of 2018
WWE has officially announced that six-time Intercontinental Champion, one-time Tag Team Champion, & one-time European Champion Jeff Jarrett will be inducted into the Hall of Fame by his old pal Road Dogg...
When the rumor first broke that Jeff Jarrett was set to join the Hall of Fame class of 2018, many dismissed it outright because of the former WWE, WCW and TNA star's tumultuous relationship with the company.
However, WWE has since officially announced that Double J will will indeed take to the stage a couple of nights before WrestleMania 34 to cement his place as a HOF inductee, and we now know that his old friend "The Road Dogg" Jesse James will be waiting to welcome him.
"Road Dogg arrived in WWE in 1994, then known as The Roadie, acting as Jarrett’s gofer as he tried to use WWE to springboard to country music superstardom. In addition to taking care of Double J’s musical endeavors, Road Dogg wasn’t afraid to meddle in Jarrett’s affairs in the ring, either. That led to the beginning of Road Dogg’s in-ring career with WWE, which saw him go on to become a six-time tag team champion and an Intercontinental Champion.
Of course, there’s also musical controversy between the two, as it was also revealed that Road Dogg provided the vocals for Jarrett’s debut single, “With My Baby Tonight.”
What will Road Dogg say when he introduces the six-time Intercontinental Champion and four-time WCW Champion for enshrinement into the WWE Hall of Fame? Find out during the 2018 Induction Ceremony, streaming live on WWE Network Friday, April 6, at 8 ET/5 PT!
The Road Doggy-dog may not have been the best "worker" in the business but he was always very entertaining on the mic, so his speech should be well worth a watch.
