Jeff Hardy’s return to TNA Wrestling at TNA Against All Odds was not only triumphant moment for fans but for the Charismatic Enigma as well. He has been a constant presence on TNA since then but he was stretchered out during this week’s episode of TNA Impact and the reason for that has been revealed.
During the July 18th edition of TNA Impact, Matt Hardy and Jeff Hardy had a chance to claim the TNA World Tag Team Championship and exact revenge on the System. This marked the Hardys’ first TNA appearance together in seven years.
However, their match was marred by interference from Johnny Dango Curtis, who shoved Jeff off the turnbuckles. The referee caught the cheating and disqualified the System. Following this, the System further assaulted Jeff with a chair, leaving Matt helplessly watching. TNA later released footage of Jeff being put on a stretcher and transported to the hospital in an ambulance.
According to PWInsider, Jeff Hardy was stretchered off during TNA television to explain his absence from the Slammiversary weekend events. Although Hardy was never advertised for the Canadian shows, his inability to attend is likely due to past issues that might prevent him from entering the country.
”Jeff Hardy was stretchered off TNA TV tonight to explain why he won’t be at the Slammiversary weekend events. Hardy was never advertised for the shows, which are in Canada. Likely, he is unable to enter the country due to his past issues.”
While it is unfortunate Jeff Hardy will not be part of Slammiversary, his past issues have ensured he will simply not be able to go to places like Canada and fans have accepted this fact now.
What did you think of Jeff Hardy being written off TNA television ahead of Slammiversary? Was this the most logical step to take? Let us know in the comments section below!
