Best days Jeff Jarrett was a B- across the board...he was like a weaker, smaller HHH in that way. Helms was like a sloppy, less athletic RVD. DAAAAANG! Styles is better than that, right?

I get that TNA put a stank on him that basically won't come off with most folks. They messed him (and Samoa Joe) up so many times in so many ways.

BUT

He's pretty awesome as an in-ring thing. His run in Japan gave that back to him.

Of course, there's a gang of dudes who be flippin now so he's not as 'special' anymore. But lawd...dude was a create a wrestler earlier in his career. And now...he's straight up a good match-having dude. And if his opponent is good too, it is all the way on. WWE having more good wrestlers with their roster of wrestling ass wrestlers is a good thing. They are running out of ways to mess this up once folks stop breaking their shoulders.
