Jeff Jarrett recalls Scott Steiner telling Dixie Carter that she was “f*cking up bad” in TNA
Former TNA owner and WCW World Champion Jeff Jarrett recently shared some tidbits from his career on his My World podcast. Talking about the 2013 period where he left TNA, he revealed that Scott Steiner was the only colleague who went to bat for him directly to Dixie Carter.
Jarrett had to leave the company that he had originally founded, and this was around the time that Dixie and Panda Energy were reportedly making changes to the leadership structure around December 2013. From Steiner’s perspective, Dixie was seemingly destroying the company while pushing out the man who put it all together in the first place:
“Look, he’s he’s his own worst enemy at times, he’s very vocal. [But] He’s [Steiner] the only one. And I’m not pointing fingers at anybody this time, but he’s the only one who went to Dixie Carter, looked her in the eye and said, Dixie, you are f*cking up bad. I’m telling you, you are screwing yourself bad [letting Jeff go].”

Jarrett also revealed that he keeps a special memento from his WCW days that is tied to Steiner…in his toilet:
“I can’t give away this guitar box, because I would always save the boxes. There’s one over in the corner, I pulled it out and there it was…a little handwritten note [from] Steiner. Nitro, Thunder, whatever it was… Scott Steiner hit me and he broke the guitar over my head. And I remember, I mean, probably wasn’t even through the curtain. I said, ‘I want that guitar.’ I said, you know what? I’m going to put Scotty in the sh*tter. So I hung the broken guitar [in the toilet], because when you’re in there and you’ve got to sit down and on the throne, you need a good conversation piece.”
