Matt Hardy Responds To Allegations About His Own Sobriety

Jeff Hardy was arrested on Monday on multiple charges including his third DUI. Since then Hardy has been the talk of the wrestling world and some people have taken it upon themselves to place blame on his brother Matt. Some people on social media have accused Matt of being an enabler, and one fan posted the following tweet which got Matt’s attention:

“What about @MATTHARDYBRAND who was getting drunk with him and let him drive knowing he was drunk and dosent have a license full accountability @TonyKhan right @BillDeMott.”

Bill DeMott also entered the conversation when he responded to the fan with a tweet saying, “It’s a good question.”

That’s when Matt Hardy decided to set the record straight when he posted his own response where he informed the fan and DeMott that he hasn’t touched a drug in a decade, and he hasn’t drank since he became a dad.

“Understand your passion on this & agree that DD is unacceptable. I expect speculation from fans, but not you. I haven’t touched a drug in over a decade, haven’t drank since I’ve been a Dad. Saw Jeff last on Sun night & flew early Mon w/ @RebyHardy. I can’t be with Jeff every min.”

Reby Hardy also chimed in with a response that was much more blunt.

Originally The Hardys were set to compete in a triple threat ladder match this week at AEW Road Rager, but Tony Khan confirmed yesterday that Jeff Hardy has been suspended. It’s been announced that Jurassic Express will defend the AEW Tag Team Titles against The Young Bucks tonight in the ladder match. Stay tuned for updates.
