Successful? Yes.
All-time great? Not even close, really.

Yeah for sure. He's a pretty good wrestler and can play either role heel or face great.

And him being a "pretty good wrestler" brings him nowhere. Sure, he was TNA's Top Dog, but at that time, they had no Big Names. Sting? Jeff Hardy? Raven? Christian? When JJ was NWA champion those were guys in the company who were threats to his title reign. JJ's title reigns: World Championship Wrestling o WCW United States Heavyweight Championship(3 times) o WCW World Heavyweight Championship(4 times) World Wrestling Federation o WWF European Championship (1 time) o WWF Intercontinental Championship (6 times) o WWF Tag Team Championship (1 time) – with Owen Hart World Class Wrestling Association * USWA World Tag Team Championship (2 times) – with Matt Borne * WCWA World Light Heavyweight Championship (1 time) * WCWA World Light Heavyweight Championship (1 time) * WCWA World Tag Team Championship (3 times) – with Kerry Von Erich (1), Mil Máscaras (1), and Matt Borne (1) * United States Wrestling Association o USWA Heavyweight Championship (1 time) o USWA Southern Heavyweight Championship (9 times) o USWA Unified World Heavyweight Championship (3 times) o USWA World Tag Team Championship (14 times) – with Jeff Gaylord (2), Cody Michaels (1), Jerry Lawler (4), Robert Fuller (4), and Brian Christopher (2) Continental Wrestling Association | Championship Wrestling Association o AWA Southern Tag Team Championship (4 times) – with Billy Travis (3) and Pat Tanaka (1) o CWA Heavyweight Championship (1 time) o CWA International Tag Team Championship (2 time) – with Pat Tanaka (1) and Paul Diamond (1) o NWA Mid-America Heavyweight Championship (5 times) If any of the guys he's won tag titles with mean anything to you(excl. Owen, Lawler, Von Erich, and Mil Mascaras) I'll be REALLY surprised. Jeff was an amazing champion in TNA for one reason, he was arguably the best heel in wrestling at the time. If you watched TNA when he and Raven faced for the NWA title and JJ won, you HATED him SO much. To you he's probably nothing, you like Jeff Hardy. Not to be a dick, but he doesn't come close to the talent Jarrett has. Jeff Hardy can be entertaining, but in terms of actual talent in pro wrestling, he doesn't have it compared to Jarrett. If people actually look back at Double J's career, he is an all time great. At least to me. I remember watching him before I watched and enjoyed Benoit.

Yeah, I would.
The fact that he was at the show in Coventry, owned.

Out of Memphis, JJ was never a draw of any type.

He is more than likely one of the best heels ever

jarrett is more of a glorified mid-carder than an all-time great imo.

One of the greatest heels ive ever seen, in his recent TNA years more than anything. He brought life into that old TNA environment when it was practically dead
