VIDEO: Jeff Hardy Says He Is Going To AEW

I wonder if he has a bag packed. The rose of AEW has offered wrestlers another mainstream home outside of WWE. As a result, it can be fascinating to see who might be heading to AEW when they are given the chance. You will often hear rumors about one wrestler making the jump but now one of them is flat out saying that he is on his way to the company.

A video has made its way online featuring Jeff hardy saying that he is going to AEW. The interview with Jared Myers took place backstage at one of Hardy’s recent concerts and features Hardy saying “I’m going to AEW. I’m so excited.” While not confirmed, Hardy has been rumored to be going to AEW since he left WWE back in December. His no compete clause continues until March 9, meaning he will not be seen for a few weeks.

It’s a bit hard to hear but that’s what he said. Check out Hardy’s interview, with the AEW announcement coming at 7:17:

Opinion: I’d hardly call this a surprise but it is still strange to hear Hardy flat out say it. Hardy is someone who wanted out of WWE and it would make sense for him to appear in a prominent role. I’m not sure if that means reforming the Hardys or being a star on his own, but Jeff to AEW is something that makes sense for both sides. As long as Hardy’s head is on straight, and it seems to be, he could be a great asset for AEW.

How would Hardy do in AEW? What do you want him to do there? Let us know in the comments below.
