Jeff Hardy Update: TNA Contract, Vince McMahon/WWE Reaction

News

The biggest news coming out of TNA Monday Night Impact was the jump of former WWE champion Jeff Hardy to TNA.

The latest on his TNA status is that Jeff has signed a deal with TNA to work a regular TNA schedule, which includes a monthly Sunday PPV and 2-3 TV tapings, almost entirely in Orlando. Hardy is not a fan of the grueling WWE full time schedule and feels the TNA schedule is more agreeable to his lifestyle.

Based on his attack on Homicide on Monday Night Impact, a match against Homicide could be Hardy’s return match.

Homicide was quoted after the show on Sirius radio saying “Anything could change and I could do something else or Jeff could do something else at the TV tapings on Tuesday, and I think it would be a great match-up of Jeff Hardy vs. Homicide. I’m really hoping it will happen,” [ PWTorch.com]

Jeff Hardy had a verbal agreement to return to WWE in 2010, so it came as a surprise to some that he appeared on TNA. Vince McMahon is said to have “no sold” Hardy jumping to TNA, not reacting at all and pretending like it never happened. [Wrestling Observer]
