It doesn’t seem like WWE will be very successful in resolving issues with Hardy. In fact, Hardy has already moved on and is reuniting with Matt Hardy at Big Time Wrestling on March 12th, 2022.
WWE released Jeff Hardy after a dark match mishap
The former WWE Superstar had teamed up with Drew McIntyre and Xavier Woods to take on The Bloodline. During the match, Hardy didn’t look extremely well-off, and he left halfway through the match after tagging out. The company sent him home the following day on December 5th.
Now, WWE wanted Hardy to go through with rehab on account that he may have fallen off the wagon. Unfortunately, Hardy refused to do the same, and ultimately, the company had to release him.

While all decisions were made keeping in mind the well-being of everyone, Hardy and WWE parted ways on a sour note. But bringing Hardy back could have a hidden agenda for WWE.

The brothers were a popular tag team during their time in WWE, and they could possibly recreate the same if both of them work with AEW.
This would be an insane boost to AEW’s ratings- something which WWE would potentially like to avoid.
