It appears Jeff Hardy is getting closer to making a return to AEW.
Hardy has been suspended by AEW indefinitely and without pay following his DUI arrest in June. After the arrest, he checked himself into rehab.
Hardy has entered a “not guilty” plea to the charge and is waiting for a pre-trial hearing to take place in October. Rehab was something that AEW President Tony Khan wanted him to do before returning to the promotion.
In the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer reported, “Jeff Hardy is expected to be out of rehab soon and back in the ring.”
Jeff’s brother, Matt, recently teased on his “The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy” podcast that fans are close to meeting the new Jeff, but they needed to figure out his future and what he plans on doing.
