    3rd DUI in less than 10 years, hence the felony charge.

    Dude just doesn’t want to get it together.

    Jeff needs rehab and to be with his family. Forget about wrestling and anything else.

    Hopefully someone from WWE reaches out to him and he gets the needed help.

      The rumor was that WWE offered him help and he refused (because he had been fine for a while) which is what led to his WWE release.

        What does this even mean? The implication feels pretty silly, honestly.

          The implication is that he had been in WWE the vast majority of his career. They know him and he probably still has pretty close friends behind the scenes there. They’ve been through this with him before. It’s not an implication of anything negative towards AEW. Jesus relax dude.

            That someone from WWE offers him rehab, again, and this time he accepts. They've paid "opposing" talent's rehab if they worked in WWE previously.

            There is no "implication" just you seeing into things that aren't there or being implied.

            And before it's mentioned, they aren't absolved from ignoring his (Jeff) or the Usos clearly reckless, irresponsible & abhorrent behavior (driving while drunk).

            Shane Helms for one is very close with both Jeff and Matt. Plus, I heard rumors - not sure if ever verified - that WWE paid for part or all of Jon Moxley's rehab.

              Just for comparision sake, Jeff blew a .294 on a breathalyzer. Raiders WR Henry Ruggs III blew a .161 when he crashed into a car at 120 MPH and killed its driver.

              It's just really at the point of you almost expect this. Kinda like expecting Sunny to be arrested for something, you just expect Jeff to get arrested for a DUI. He really needs to get help, and if anyone is wondering, WarnerMedia has told AEW not to mention Jeff Hardy, the Tag Team Title Match is no longer being advertised for Wednesday. Jeff just screwed over 5 other wrestlers including his own Brother.

                    Good to see AEW put a condition on his return.

                    I think he realized he won't get many (if any) more chances elsewhere if he doesn't clean himself up.

                    WWE won't take him back. AEW is also making him go to rehab. ROH isn't an option anymore. At best he'd have Impact, but other than that he's really burning bridges.

                    If he was some mid or low card guy with no name or nostalgia value, he'd probably have been out of the wrestling business ages ago. He's been lucky to get all these second chances.

                      I still think Jeff should retire or be cut loose, but maybe this time rehab helps.

                      I have my doubts.

                        Find it hilarious how he turned down WWE's help when they told him to go to Rehab but suddenly he is open to it.

                          That’s Tony keeping AEW safe from potential litigation from Jeff. The whole “innocent until proven guilty “.

                            In light of the craziness in Pro Wrestling.. here's a funny video of Sting returning after Rampage sending the crowd home happy.

                              Booker T body-shaming Adam Cole is in the news cycle, I guess he said Cole is getting injured because he doesn't have enough muscle mass and people took that as body-shaming.

                              That's been a critique of mine of Adam Cole for awhile though (and other people as well). Not the injury part but the fact that he looks like a skinny weak dork that doesn't workout cosplaying as a wrestler yet he's shoved down our throats as a top guy contending for the heavyweight title and I don't find him believable as a threat at all. There's nothing menacing about him, there's no martial arts background we as viewers are aware of...seems like everyone is just sick of Cole at this point because he's had the same character forever now.

                                Well, I definitely reject the theory that having more muscle mass or having a more defined aestheticaly pleasing look is going to protect someone from injury in pro wrestling lol.

                                For sure Adam Cole doesn't have a great look, but from what I know he's knows it and owns it. The reason he started doing the character stuff (the entire entrance and crowd interaction) is because he needed something to set him apart.
