Hey guys, listen to this:

Jeff Hardy is now in rehab. The word we are getting is that Hardy was denying he had a problem and was rejecting the idea of going to rehab. Apparently Hardy has been having a drinking problem.

Either way he blew it. Sure we're talking about a WWE that glorifies drinking with characters like "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, but still that's a 'script'.


Any of the rest of us in this position would be fired. He's lucky he's only getting a suspension.

My question is that he would be suspended for drinking? And Austin isn't going around getting himself busted during drug tests and like you said its a script and its a gimmick.

Drug tests are for drinking now?

I'm assuming there was something else in his system. That would be an extreme drug test.

Yeah, if they test whether you drank, I'd get busted once every couple weeks...

At this point, he better be smoking pot and not just smoking!

Yeah its not I've come to the conclusion. He was probably doing pot or painkillers. It'd be really bad if he was doing heroin which was what was said that he was doing the last time he had drug problems. He wouldn't be able to preform that good in the ring imo if he was though.

Yeah if I were to bet money, I'd say pain killers. His body was in rough shape a couple months ago and he was suppose to get some rest. That never happened and I think he's been popping for a while now.

I always thought it would be hard for someone with his style not to get addicted to pain killers. When you do jumps onto ladders and through tables, its extremely hard to keep going. Every wrestler usually takes a huge bump but Jeff Hardy specifically, takes major bumps all the time. It makes for great entertainment but the body breaks and if you don't give it time to heal you can develop serious problems, dependency on pain killers is one.

Hardy like alot of ECW wrestlers are basically stunt men.


If you want to know the life of a stunt man, see the late Evel Kneivel.

They basically destroy their bodies, and live in pain the rest of their life. I think Jeff knows this is now his gimmick, and he has nothing to really lose. He's rather be on painkillers, out of pain, and unemployed, then be in pain, struggling to go out there, and then becoming depressed over it.

I remember watching an Evel Kneivel interview that he did a few years before he died, he said that he was in great pain.
