[@jtown1022]

My theory is Jeff Hardy was working WWE like Brian Pillman worked WCW. Jeff wanted to leave and reunite with his brother at AEW. Considering his history with substance abuse, the mere appearance would be enough to trigger the rehab ultimatum. My guess is Jeff thought this was easiest way to get released "clean" and join his brother.

[@67silverhazey]

The more I read this comment the more that seems like it

[@pk_1]

No I don’t think so

[@JMFSpike]

Yep, I think that's what happened too. It makes perfect sense. While I won't assume that he did it so that he could join Matt in AEW necessarily, I do think he wanted out of WWE.

[@lyandquinterosantana5770]

I thought the same thing. It was around the same time former producer Freddie Prinze Jr. basically said WWE regretted putting the top title on him because he couldn’t stay clean. During that time, you could see other reports claiming “WWE would not push Jeff Hardy to a world championship victory again” for that same reason. On the other hand, Jeff had made his motivations crystal clear when he signed with the company: wrestle with his brother and win the tag titles again, have “No More Words” as his theme when his eventual singles run happened, and carry the WWE Championship for the final time in his career.

[@Smart-Towel-RG-400]

But he could of just left a few months before that when he renewed if he wanted to do that

I absolutely love Jeff. He was my John Cena when I was a kid. I was amazed by his high flying Spiderman esque moveset. Now he's older, the arial and chemical risks have caught up to Jeff, he can't move nearly like he could 10 years ago. Everytime he does a Swanton Bomb, it looks like Jeff is broken in half. For his own sake, I hope Jeff retires soon and move to a managerial role, instead of being Mickey Rourke...

[@illyal1445]

Absolutely , I hope he doesn't show up in AEW where they do let guys take way crazier risks for a final run. Wrestlng isn't fun anymore when you're more worried about the wrestlers long term health as to where you can't enjoy watching them. Late career Angle was the same way I couldn't watch him do anything and not worry about his neck anymore.

My thought process since he got released has been this. Yes he passed a drug test, and everyone says yeah then he had a right to turn down rehab. How do we not know he wasn't drunk and WWE didn't know if it was that or drugs? He's admitted to not stopping drinking, so just because he passed a drug test doesn't mean he couldn't have been under the influence and they saw it.

[@poppy87]

Agreed.

[@dizzolve9189]

With the amount of money WWE has, if their talent has substance issues, they most likely gave him a test that detects alcohol too. I've seen many people get in trouble with their P.O. because alcohol was detected in their drug tests, and those are county/state funded tests. WWE has the money to get the "top tier" tests. As much as Jeff has disappointed me with his spells, I believe it was just exhaustion and frustration. Matt said the Jeff had a death within his family circle with zero time to process, drove 300 miles to the show. Regardless of what shape you're in physically, stuff like that can break a person. Jeff seems like a very emotional person, he seemed to take the gamble of walking over idling or potentially hurting someone in case he was used again in the match. I could be very wrong, I'm kind of waiting to see what Jeff says in March. WWE likes to bury their releases, ie; Keith Lee and Bray Wyatt. It's blatant blacklisting attempts.

If Hardy did get his bell ring then why not come out and say so.....I would!! To me it looks like he planned all this out and I know everyone loves Jeff and hates WWE, but I can't say anytime good about him if that's what he did. Don't like Ben Simmons and don't like Antonio Brown forcing the hands of their employers so I don't like this if it's all a sham. Honor your contract....you had been in that environment a lot of years....it's not like you didn't know what you signed up for.

Did Jim review Ricky Stark's match with Jay Lethal or not? Cause i can't find it on KZbin. That match was incredible. Very unfortunate if he missed it Found it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hWSqeJSae6x1q9k

[@KilleyBen]

I think he talked about it a week or so ago? (Can’t remember if it was the experience or drive thru), but he highly rated it from what i remember!

[@NicholasBhagasinsan]

@@KilleyBen that's good to hear. I just wish they made a seperate video so the viewers can add comments on Jim's opinion

I don't understand why Brian and Corney are forgetting that you could be drunk and still pass a drug test

[@jonathonholifield3166]

I mean they were mentioning that last time they were discussing this

[@thomasj.foolery7025]

Let’s be honest, if this wasn’t Jeff at a WWE show he would’ve been “killing the business” if he walked out in the middle of a match. Suuuure, Corny would’ve given him the benefit of the doubt. F out of here.

[@jay_1212]

To be fair it was just a house show, it would be another thing if it was on television then yea the situation would’ve been much more monumental. Besides it seems like Jeff planned for this to happen and banked on the fact that he would pass the drug test

Jim is a hypocrite

[@Hush_Money2]

@@joshdamage I love Jim but I agree with you there. He can be a hypocrite. Specially when it comes to Punk. He drinks that Punk kool-aid.

[@joshdamage]

@@Hush_Money2 100%. It's why I've drastically scaled back on listening to his show.

If the Hardys reunited in Fayetteville, I’d be pissed because I don’t live there anymore.

I remember I went on a blind lunch date. We got a weird tasting omelet. Had to work a closing lock up shift. I had a "bad night" and left the only other adult in charge and left. I shat my pants. What? You expect my to see everyone out...

[@GilLizaGibbyCossio]

Jeff Hardy was being vintage Jeff Hardy had a good match and so like a great pro. And then came out to the garage your Love because I was there and my kid got a hug him and take pictures
