Jeff Hardy has been one of the biggest names in professional wrestling for some time now, but his most recent run with WWE has come to an end. Hardy returned to the company in 2017, but it was recently reported that Jeff has been released.
Over the weekend Hardy competed in a six man tag team match at the WWE live event in Edinburg, TX on Saturday night and he left through the crowd before the match was over. It was later reported that Jeff Hardy had been sent home from the road and replaced by Rey Mysterio the next night.
There’s certainly no shortage of people within the wrestling industry who have love for Jeff Hardy, and you can see some of the reactions to his release below.
Jeff Hardy is so beloved by his fans and his peers. I’ve never heard a negative word about him & he’s always treated me with such kindness. Just wishing him and his family the very best.

Jeff Hardy along with Matt as the Hardy Boyz, helped mold my love for professional wrestling. I was able to share a ring with Jeff on multiple occasions and enjoyed every moment of it. Thank you for just being Jeff Hardy
