TNA News: Jeff Hardy talks his brother Matt's weird video last year, overcoming his own demons, returning to WWE, and more

TNA Star Jeff Hardy spoke with the Phoenix New Times as hype for the upcoming Bound for Glory PPV in Phoenix on October 14. You can read the full interview at http://blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com/jackalope/2012/10/jeff_hardy_tna_bound_for_glory_phoenix.php. Among the highlights:

-Jeff on overcoming his personal demons: "I know how I am and what I've done and I wish it was as easy for [him] as it was for me I guess. Matt [Hardy] went through a dark period and I was just getting through my stuff and that was tough on me. I was like, "Oh my god, people are different." I've never suffered physical withdrawals from not doing drugs, but that's what separates me from everybody else, I guess, because I'm not like everybody else. I wish I could explain why some people don't succeed but I don't know. I mean all I know is how and who I am."

-Jeff on his brother Matt Hardy's recent (presumed) drug induced videos: "Yeah, I hated it. I hated everything he put up. I was embarrassed for him. But that was just stuff that he was going through. If I'm going to put something on YouTube it's just going to be fun."

-Jeff on returning to WWE in the future: "Man, I really can't answer that. I'm happy where I'm at right now with TNA. But you never say never in this business, so it depends on where I'll be at in a few months."

Shore's Slant: Both Jeff and Matt have come a long way since they reached their respective bottoms. Jeff has risen to the top of the card again and was the most over guy at the recent TNA house show I attended, and it wasn't even close. Matt still has work to do to restore trust in the wrestling community, but working with ROH is a good way to get there. It's a good article and one worth reading.
