Jeffrey Leonard Jarrett (born April 14, 1967) is an American professional wrestler, professional wrestling promoter and businessman, currently signed to WWE as a backstage producer and occasional on-air talent. Beginning his career in his father's Continental Wrestling Association (CWA) in 1986, Jarrett first came to prominence upon debuting in the World Wrestling Federation in 1992. Over the next nine years, he alternated between the WWF and its main competitor, World Championship Wrestling (WCW). After WCW was purchased by the WWF in 2001, Jarrett joined the upstart World Wrestling All-Stars (WWA) promotion. In 2002, Jarrett and his father together founded Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) in partnership with National Wrestling Alliance. After departing the promotion in 2014, Jarrett founded another new promotion, Global Force Wrestling (GFW). He returned to WWE in 2019 as an on-screen talent and producer.

A third-generation wrestler and promoter, Jarrett has held 81 championship reigns throughout his career, among them the NWA World Heavyweight Championship (six times), WCW World Heavyweight Championship (four times), WWA World Heavyweight Championship (twice), USWA Unified World Heavyweight Championship (three times), and AAA Mega Championship (twice). He was inducted into the TNA Hall of Fame in 2015 and the WWE Hall of Fame in 2018.
