Jeff Jarrett recently reflected on his friendship with Owen Hart, recalling the conversations they shared shortly before Hart’s tragic death in 1999.
Jarrett highlighted how Hart was thrilled about his family and the new home he was preparing to move into.
“I can remember Owen talking about the house.”
“He was so excited about it.”
“He talked about his family all the time.”
While fans often remember Hart for his in‑ring achievements, those closest to him emphasize the family man behind the performer.
“People always talk about Owen the wrestler.”
“But Owen the husband and Owen the father, that was who he really was.”
“His family was everything to him.”
According to Jarrett, their discussions frequently focused on life outside of wrestling.
“When we would talk, it wasn’t always about wrestling.”
“A lot of times it was about family.”
“It was about what was going on at home.”
Jarrett remembered how eager Hart was for the next chapter of his life.
“He was excited.”
“He was happy.”
“He was looking forward to getting settled in and enjoying life with his family.”
The WWE Hall of Famer admitted that revisiting those conversations remains painful because no one could have foreseen what was to come.
“You just never know.”
“You never know when the last conversation is going to be.”
“You never know when the last time you’re going to see somebody is.”
Jarrett said Hart’s death was one of the most heartbreaking losses in wrestling history.
“It affected everybody.”
“It affected the entire business.”
“It affected people in ways that are hard to explain.”
Decades later, Jarrett believes Hart’s legacy continues to influence professional wrestling.
“People still talk about Owen.”
“People still remember Owen.”
“That tells you everything you need to know about the kind of person he was.”
He concluded by stressing that Hart’s impact extended far beyond championships or memorable matches.
“He was a great talent.”
“But more importantly, he was a great person.”
“That’s what people remember.”
