According to a recent report by Fightful Select, Jeff Hardy’s fans may have to wait a little longer to see him compete in AEW. While Hardy made his highly-anticipated return to the wrestling world last week after a ten-month hiatus following a DUI arrest, it is not expected that he will have a match in AEW before his upcoming showdown at the Hardy Compound.
It is noteworthy that Hardy had to undergo rehabilitation and remain sober before being allowed to return to wrestling. This decision is a responsible one on AEW’s part, given the potential risks involved with allowing someone to perform before they are ready.
Furthermore, it appears that there were a few individuals outside of the company who were aware of Hardy’s comeback a few days before it was officially announced. It is unclear at this time how this information was leaked, but it serves as a reminder that the wrestling industry can be prone to spoilers and speculation.
