Putting him against the plethora of douchebags at the top of WCW probably didn't help build him as a Main Event but WWE knew how to handle their stars. I bet Vince was hurt to lose a great worker with legit heat on the mic.
Jarrett was solid, but he wasn’t that great that it was a major loss. Vince and JR offered Jarrett the same deal as his previous cycle. That sent a very clear message that once his heat with Austin had set in, there was no room for him to move up the card.

It would have been cool to see him work with Benoit, Jericho and Guerrero heading into 2000, but he wasn’t necessary.
