Jeff Hardy's popularity rose alongside his brother Matt Hardy in the WWE, and the TNA Superstar recently talked about possibly winding his career down with the WWE among other topics.
WWE Adds More Dates To Brock Lesnar's Schedule
Hardy spoke with BetweenTheRopes.com about a variety of topics as he promoted the upcoming Destination X event airing on this week's edition of TNA Impact Wrestling, and he touched on if he'd ever return to the WWE for the first time since his departure in 2009.
"From time to time I'll turn on RAW and I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss the WWE Universe man, because they, what a ... the crowds," Hardy said. "When I watch, it hurts a little bit. I'm going 'oh man, that's my creatures man, my fans'. They've supported me so much. And even on the Instagram posts that's all I ever see. 'Go back to WWE. You said you'd come back. It's never forever, it's just for now'. I mean, ultimately, when the time is right, who knows. But I started there and whether it's 10, 15 years down the road I would like to end there."
Updated SummerSlam Matches And Rumors
Hardy also touched on the rumors going around that Spike TV won't renew Impact Wrestling when the contract expires in October. TNA management emailed its wrestlers to tell them that they are still in negotiations, and Hardy is hopeful they'll work something out.
"I just hear that negotiations are ongoing," Hardy said. "People have their doubts but me, I'm the type of guy that, you know, I have faith in TNA wherever we end up. I have faith that, you know, a year from now we're still going to be on Spike. I don't read Twitter timelines. I don't follow the social network at all. So, I don't know. I feel good about being in TNA and as far as I'm concerned I'm going to be on Spike this time next year."
Hardy has had some personal problems in the past and was asked if he ever thought he'd be back in TNA after his TNA World Heavyweight Championship match at Victory Road in March of 2011 lasted 90 seconds because he was in no condition to wrestle. After the bout, TNA cut all ties with him before eventually bringing him back.
"Oh yeah, definitely. It was a dark, depressing time in my life after Victory Road 2011 was real ... it was a sad time for me cause they could have easily fired me and let me go," Hardy said. "As far as them giving me that second chance and letting me prove myself, TNA saved me. They saved my life pretty much."
Hardy also touched on other topics such as teaming with his brother again, TNA invading New York City, where he is now personally and much more. The full interview can be heard here.
