Apparently the master tapes for Jarrett's GFW Amped! shows are now lost forever.

Losing any piece of wrestling history normally would be a terrible thing to happen but what makes this fall under LOLTNA status is Impact admitting they purposely deleted the tapes. Making things worse is Impact is currently involved in an on-going lawsuit regarding the legal ownership of GFW so its also possible they broke laws by doing this.

The 33-page amended lawsuit alleges Anthem has Prevented Jarrett and GFE from filing copyrights on the GFW Amped! TV footage with the amended lawsuit noting, "The last remaining step in the registration process is submission of deposit copies, which GFE cannot provide to the Copyright Office due to Defendants’ unlawful possession and/or deletion of the only master recordings of the 16 one-hour GFW Amped videos. Defendants admit that the master recordings were deleted while in their custody and no longer exist. "
