PWInsider has reported a couple of new details on the Jeff Hardy situation, including that he knew he was being suspended before Raw and even had his fiancé at the show with him. He was apparently not happy after his long meeting with Vince McMahon and reports from PWInsider’s “WWE sources” had a feeling Jeff didn’t feel he had a problem and would leave WWE rather than go to rehab. Obviously only time will tell on that front.
Jim Ross’ latest blog entry addresses a number of topics, including Hardy. “To say I am disappointed in these recent events would be an understatement,” writes Ross, “and for those of us who have long believed in Jeff and have pulled for him throughout his career, these self inflicted wounds are especially distressing.” He also addressed the rumored “shoot” between WWE superstars and Floyd Mayweather’s posse at Raw. “Mayweather’s people tried to impose their physical will on many WWE Superstars which did not set well with some. Even after the TV show ended there were still several wrestlers fuming about the cheap shots ‘Money’s’ Posse took.”

Click over to Jason Powell’s site for more details, and we’ll cover this story more as all of the facts eventually come out.
