Recent WWE star Jeff Hardy was jailed in Moore County, North Carolina on Friday after police searched his home and discovered 262 Vicodin pills, 180 Soma pills, 555 milliliters of anabolic steroids, and a residual amount of powder cocaine and items of drug paraphernalia, according to The Pilot website.

Hardy was charged with felony trafficking in opium, two counts of felony possession with intent to sell or deliver a schedule three controlled substance, felony maintaining a dwelling to keep a controlled substance, felony possession of cocaine, and misdemeanor possession of drug paraphernalia. His bail is set at $125,000. To read the full story, visit ThePilot.com. [Thanks to Dot Net reader Jason H.]

Powell's POV: Who would have guessed that WWE officials would be breathing a sigh of relief that Hardy is no longer on their active roster? Had this happened a few weeks ago, the company would have been forced to terminate him because it would have been his third Wellness Policy violation.
