Despite his father passing away on Tuesday, Jeff Jarrett informed AEW head Tony Khan that he will remain on tonight's episode of Dynamite.
Khan said on Busted Open Radio that Jarrett is in Laredo, Texas, and "wants to wrestle tonight and push forward."
Jarrett will join with Sonjay Dutt, Jay Lethal & Satnam Singh against The Acclaimed, Orange Cassidy & Billy Gunn in a match announced Friday night.
Khan said Jarrett's decision is a "brave and courageous" one and that AEW would have respected whatever decision Jarrett made about tonight.
Jerry Jarrett passed away Tuesday morning at 80 years old after a battle with
esophageal cancer.
Khan said he could talk for hours on how much of an influence Memphis Wrestling had on him, and that so much of what he learned about pro wrestling, he learned from the Jarrett family.
