THE CREATIVE JUICES that the Hardy brothers brought to the table turned out to be a breath of fresh air in the entire wrestling business. By providing the fans with something completely different, Matt and Jeff have managed to turn themselves into one of the major attractions for Impact Wrestling.
Jeff Hardy’s resurrection in particular is something worth noting. After going through numerous roller coaster rides in his career, he seems to have finally found a good level of comfort in TNA. The Fan Garage's Renjith Ravindran recently caught up with Jeff.
Jeff Hardy: Working in TNA offers more family time, and that's why it's better for me. Also, there’s creative liberty here, which is an added advantage
This creative liberty is indeed what gave us Brother Nero. The character has earned a cult status among the wrestling circles and on the internet, it is a phenomenon. But the props for this go to Matt as well.
Jeff Hardy: I've enjoyed working with everyone. My most memorable are Edge & Christian, The Dudleyz, Umaga, Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, RVD and my brother, Matt Hardy. Working with Matt is less stressful and it's always extremely comfortable. It’s a positive environment here.
Another championship reign looks set to sprout out from this positive environment as the brothers will be challenging Abyss and Crazzy Steve, collectively known as Decay, for the TNA tag team championships at Bound for Glory. The last outing between Hardys and Decay turned out to be an internet breaking segment.
While winning the tag team championship would be a big boost, Jeff is still uncertain about what future holds for him.
Jeff Hardy: My future is more unpredictable now than it's ever been. It could go anywhere or any way. I have been wrestling for over 25 years and given it my all. Staying creative and maintaining my health is my priority at the moment.
In the closing stages of the interview, Jeff also weighed in his opinion on the UFC debut of CM Punk.
Jeff Hardy: I wish him the best. He did something I wouldn't come close to doing. Props for that!
