Jeff Hardy has long been one of the most talented and charismatic superstars in professional wrestling. Not only is he a five-time World Champion, but he’s had two stints in WWE so far that make up six total years with the company. Unfortunately for him, this past week his career came to an abrupt end when it was announced by both parties that Jeff will no longer be appearing on WWE programming after creative began its own process of splintering into new factions.
Jeff Hardy’s WWE release has been a big topic of conversation in the world of professional wrestling. The reactions have been mixed.
The WWE announced on Thursday that Jeff Hardy has been dismissed, ending his third stint with the promotion. Hardy was sent home only days before the release after an incident at a WWE live event in Edinburg, Texas, when he walked into the audience during a six-man tag team bout. Hardy’s drug and alcohol problems have plagued him throughout his long career, as Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp highlighted when the news broke “I’ve heard that WWE offered Jeff Hardy assistance and treatment, but he declined. Let’s hope things turn around for him.”
Wrestlers and fans alike went to social media to express their support for Hardy. In the list below, you can see some of the responses. What do you believe the Grand Slam Champion will do next? Let us know in the comments section.
Big E, the WWE Champion
Jeff Hardy is adored by both his fans and colleagues. I’ve never heard anybody say anything bad about him, and he’s always been very kind to me. I just want to wish him and his family the best.

Whatever happens now, I hope he remains happy and well. Nothing else is important.

A Daily Struggle
Addiction is a fight that lasts a lifetime. Jeff Hardy isn’t to blame. It’s not the fault of WWE. It’s not the fault of wrestling.
On a daily basis, individuals must make a commitment to the duty of sobriety. Your life may be ruined by a one moment of inconsistency. https://t.co/xPMZeIwf10

Support from the public
Jeff Hardy, I believe, is one of those people who can elicit empathy and compassion from large groups. His gravity-defying acrobatics undoubtedly helped him get to where he is now, but many people can relate to his difficulties and triumphs.
I expect them to do so in the future.

Transcendant
Jeff Hardy is unaffected by color, age, sex, gender, social status, country, or anything else. You depict a 45-year-old man in Slovakia. Jeff Hardy is going to start performing the dance and putting up the hand signal.

Everyone in our wrestling community wishes Jeff Hardy nothing but the best.

Lio Rush of AEW
Thank you, #JeffHardy, for being such an inspiration to me. There would be no me in the business of professional wrestling if it weren’t for you. Thank you for your desire, passion, commitment, and devotion to your family. I’ll be praying for you. I’ll be praying for them. #ForTheBest

Alexander, Cedric
As the Hardy Boyz, Jeff Hardy and Matt influenced my interest in professional wrestling. I had the opportunity to share a ring with Jeff on many occasions and really loved every second of it. Thank you for just being. Jeff Hardy is a professional wrestler.

Mustafa Ali (Mustafa Ali)
On Main Event, I had the opportunity to battle against Jeff Hardy. Jeff, I assumed, was going to take it “easy.” “Nah guy, I’ve been waiting for this match,” Jeff adds. “Let’s rip this sh*t apart.” He was a generous man. I really wish Jeff and his family the best. pic.twitter.com/m7Qp1XOo6t
