Jeff Hardy Questions His Future as a Wrestler

In an exclusive interview with The Daily Star, former World Champion and fan favorite Jeff Hardy said he was a bit “freaked out” about his career in light of his injuries after a biking accident. Here is what Jeff Hardy had to say to The Daily Star:

 “I have a torn PCL [posterior cruciate ligament] in my right knee and it’s been torn ever since I broke my tibia.

“They put a rod in my tibia, so after all the swelling went down I knew something was wrong with my knee.

“I finally went to the doctor, and I had an MRI, and found out it was a torn PCL.

“I just started physical therapy last week, it’s been really tough. Hopefully that is going to work and I can avoid surgery. Fingers crossed.”

“My number one right now is getting better. I’m kind of afraid, because my knee is so unstable. It’s freaking me out a little, I’m not gonna lie.

“Right now I’m mostly concerned about getting better. This is the first serious injury I’ve had in my entire life. This is very new for me. I realise how much I love wrestling now, because I miss it so bad.

“I think a lot of it is psychological. The thing is, my style, I’m the kinda guy who if I feel I can’t wrestle the style that I always have, then I’m not going to want to wrestle at all.

“Then there’a a part of me that thinks, ‘Jeff, you can still be great and modify your style’. I think that’s what my future is going to be like, maybe not as insane!”
