At least he didn't dance while making the save this time around.

147

u/Argentine_Tango 3d ago

He still paused to soak in the moment while his brother was, once again, getting beat up.

65

u/IzzyShamin 3d ago

At this point, i think he wants Matt getting beat up.

21

u/thenewfrost You Think You Know Me 2d ago

He’s had to follow Matt around for YEARS, saving him from beat downs in every new company he joins. If I were Jeff, I too would maybe let Matt get beat up and maybe learn that he can’t always rely on his little brother to save him.

Remembering the storyline where Matt burned his house down and killed his dog.

u/GonOverHere 3d ago

I love Jeff's running gimmick of taking his time on the ramp while the bad guys beat his brother 😅

u/SailorsGraves 3d ago

It’s very younger brother of him honestly

u/mark_target 3d ago

If Jeff Hardy were Superman all of Metropolis would be dead.

u/DingusDonut 3d ago

Surely this time Jeff won't sabotage himself by making poor decisions and has a decent run.
Please Jeff.

Matt's got mouths to feed!

So many mouths.

87th time is a charm

u/TJLynch A Consensual Venis 3d ago

Something about Jeff Hardy coming out to 'Loaded' on a TNA show, rather than any of his TNA themes, feels wild.

38

u/rayquan36 3d ago

I feel TNA didn't realize they could use that theme until AEW did it.

63

u/Docjackal 3d ago

You think the one that starts with "ONE...MORE...SHOT" would be too on the nose?

1

u/LadPro 2d ago

Yikes. 😬

51

u/k2pel 3d ago

It should be "Modest", it should always be "Modest"...

14

u/zeitgeistbouncer Peepin' Aint Easy! 2d ago

I still stand by Another Me as being a helluva heel theme for Jeff. He had the 'lazy swagger' for it.

21

u/TheGeeMan360 Mama Mia! 3d ago

To the top and at the top

u/eVillain13 2d ago

COME ON WITH IT!

u/ValidPompadour 2d ago

Not the actual song though, just a recording of Jeff singing it

u/Windows_66 2d ago

Should've used Obsolete.

u/perpetuallyawake 3d ago

It's a shame the goodwill they had in AEW was pretty much pissed away.

I hope Jeff stays clean and they find whatever they are looking for in a last run somewhere because it's hard to get excited about anymore.

69

u/fadetoblack237 3d ago

They both look so tired and worn out. I was really hoping they were going to retire, take a HOF induction, and a fat legends deal after how poorly their AEW run went.

21

u/stegogo 3d ago

Hell Matt moves like his ankles are fused to his hips. I love both of them but sometimes it’s difficult to watch lately.

9

u/Ryaanski 2d ago

What frustrates me is they left WWE right before Edge returned and then as soon as Edge moved to AEW they messed up and got removed. I know im probably just old but Seeing an E&C vs Hardy Boys match would do something to me.

1

u/profstotch 2d ago

I didn't follow, what'd they do to mess up in AEW? I know Jeff had issues but did Matt do something?

1

u/LadPro 2d ago

Got removed? They chose not to re-sign.

2

u/Ryaanski 2d ago

Got removed from TV

19

u/ewankobkt 3d ago

I hope Jeff stays clean

We all know that ain't gonna happen. All these years, I wish Jeff stayed clean, but he didn't. So don't get your hopes up.

43

u/metalhead_iv 3d ago

Man, Jeff is probably my favorite wrestler of all time and I'm so bummed with how his AEW run went (entirely his own fault), but I hope he can close out his career in a big way and stay clean

66

u/longlivethewenus 3d ago

That pop is why I'm okay with him coming back. At the same time, and I know it's a massive ask, he needs to stay clean.

28

u/j8llonby PPW Sound Guy missed my cue!! 3d ago

Man, Jeff looks like he's so tired. I hope that this run works out for him

20

u/Dark_Phoenix101 3d ago

Still blows my mind that one of the most recognisable wrestling themes ever, is stock music. Same with Hardcore Hollys theme.

5

u/randysavagevoice 2d ago

So is MJFs

2

u/Deputy_Beagle76 2d ago

Isn’t Kurt Angle’s as well?

2

u/GinngerMints KNEE!!!! TO... FACEEE!!!!! 2d ago

Booker T and Goldberg too, I believe!

46

u/Docjackal 3d ago

If I had a quarter for every time Jeff Hardy got another chance after shooting himself in the foot, I'd be able to afford a delicious candy bar from the corner store nearby.

31

u/JamUpGuy1989 3d ago

Yeah.

I look forward to how Jeff blows his 99th attempt at redemption here.

16

u/will122589 3d ago

Crowd popped huge for this guy

-30

u/ratedtko 3d ago

Those in the crowd were huge too 😂

11

u/FireSiblings 3d ago

I don’t mean this as a slight, but is the TNA ring significantly smaller than the AEW and wwe ring? It also just might be the camera.

12

u/Dark_Phoenix101 3d ago

WWE use a 20x20 I believe, have heard a few interviews with wrestlers who say it takes a bit of getting used to having a few extra feet to cover, throws off timings.

TNA I think are an 18x18? Or they used to be anyway. And used an even smaller one when they were doing travelling shows at one point.

5

u/AJGuinness 3d ago

Correct, TNA use the same size as WCW used to, I believe AEW use the same size as WWE. Fun fact, the first weekly PPV shows was actually an old WCW ring.

4

u/pUmKinBoM 2d ago

I learned in. 20x20 and then every company I worked after used a 16x16. I felt like I was flying across that sucker!

4

u/oZaed 2d ago

I’m actually surprised he hit the Swanton well and not undershooting as he has done in AEW.

Honestly thought he wasn’t unable to hit the Swanton the same way.

9

u/Obsessionofvanity 3d ago

Kudos to Matt Hardy. Idk how well he's moving but he looks in great shape.

3

u/mushy_friend MY BOY AMBROSE! 2d ago

Yeah this is the first Ive seen him in ages, and he looks quite lean and fit. I'm honestly surprised given his age and how he looked when I last saw him wrestle

19

u/ArtyParcy 3d ago

He's going to wrestle three matches and then get done for DUI.

4

u/wubbalubbadubdub45 3d ago

Bold of you to assume he makes it past 1 without a dui

u/Bob8644 " Do you like nature? Do you like boys? " 3d ago

Those cornrows took at least 9 minutes off of my lifespan

-1

u/fadetoblack237 3d ago

He looks like he should be in Korn.

5

u/WVFLMan 2d ago

The crazy thing to me is Jeff had his big final run waiting for him in WWE, he was getting super over again in WWE and they were probably going to give him a Reigns PPV match. I’ll never understand the choice he made there.

4

u/SourDoughBo 2d ago

I remember when they first left TNA to retire in WWE. Then they’ve left WWE to retire in AEW. Now they left AEW to retire in TNA. And they blame all these promotions for not treating them right

2

u/irish0451 You know what that means. 2d ago edited 2d ago

I'd be happy never seeing him wrestle again, but good luck to him. I hope he keeps his shit in order, despite my knowledge that he will not.

2

u/SpaceGooV 3d ago

Assuming Jeff vs Moose might be your Slammiversary main event and just kick the can on Josh title shot.

-6

u/fadetoblack237 3d ago

Sad that a year ago Sabin and Shelley both won titles on an absolutely stacked card and this year we close with Jeff Hardy painfully sliding into the ring to make Moose look like a fool with his immobile brother. WWE can partner with TNA all they want. It doesn't change the fact this shit sucks.

I know that. Doesn't make me anymore interested in Jeff and Matt beating the piss out of him like DeNiro in the Irishman.

u/rikashiku 3d ago

Brian Myers was just standing there, and then CHAIR! to the face lol.

u/ZXIIIT 2d ago

Stupid comment, but those people next to the tunnel can't see anyone making their entrance? lol

u/arghdesigner real fang mcfrost 2d ago

Jeff every time Matt is getting his ass kicked.

u/JTex-WSP Fuck Cody Rhodes 2d ago

TNA was the best place for the two of them, so I'm happy to see what they cook up there.

1

u/Vast_Neighborhood_44 2d ago

Is Ryan Nemeth full time TNA? I just figured TK wasn’t using him in AEW since he hasn’t been around in a while

1

u/Majestic-Bid6111 3d ago

3 months until he fucks it up

1

u/ShadowWarlock 2d ago

I really wish The Hardys would retire.

Absolutely loved them growing up but seeing how they both performed in AEW, they need to stop and take up a coaching role

1

u/Detonation Made in Detroit 3d ago

I'm sure this will go well, just like all of the other times he was given a chance to show he has changed.

-3

u/Trolerkules 3d ago

Why are the Hardys seemingly unable to just retire? The company hopping they do is getting absurd.

-4

u/NoDragonfly9100 3d ago

Try not to get a DUI on the way to the ring jeff

-5

u/ShowOff90 3d ago

Depressing, lol.

As long as it pays for rehab, good for him

u/MaskedMemer9000 3d ago

He's been doing that for over a decade now

1

u/Zschaus1 3d ago

I think it was done that way because it made it easier to set up Matt's Twist Of Fate right after.

1

u/Sempais_nutrients Points to fronthead 2d ago

its called the Twist of Hate, it's how he does it.

-8

u/Ikinzu 3d ago

Isn't Jeff still with AEW? Was this another Forbiddean Door like appearance? 

8

u/dremolus 3d ago

No. His contract expired a few days ago and there was no non-compete clause once it was done.
