Jeff Hardy was released from WWE back in December following an incident at a WWE live event, and it was later reported that the company asked him to go to rehab and Jeff refused.
On a recent episode of his podcast Matt Hardy confirmed that Jeff’s drug test came back negative, and now Jeff is opening up about the circumstances that led to his WWE departure.
During a recent interview with Jared Myers, The Charismatic Enigma said that he would love to return to WWE someday, but he also explained why he wasn’t willing to meet the company’s demands in order to keep his job.
“Hopefully yeah, I would love to go back,” Hardy said, regarding a potential WWE return in the future. “They released me and tried to make me go to rehab but I’m just so over it. My dream match was with Roman Reigns, I’ve talked about that many times but then I said, ‘so you want me to go away for like 28 days just to save my job?’ No.
“You know what’s important to me? Family. My two daughters, my wife, they believe in me. F*ck WWE man. It’s like a private, personal thing. I’m not going to f*cking go to rehab. If they believe in me, that’s all that matters, my wife and my two girls.”
Jeff also noted during the same interview that he will be heading to AEW. Stay tuned for more updates as they become available.
