He may well have made his last appearance at least for a long time.

[tnvolfan16]

you know what they say, God takes care of children and drunks. this guy always seems to fall forward somehow and people are always there to defend him.

He blew a .294 at the scene, over 3.5 times the legal limit. Everyone is extremely lucky that this wasn't another Sunny situation.

Throw him in jail for awhile, obviously coddling him through this isn't helping, and he will wind up killing someone at this rate.

WWE got a ton of flack but clearly they were correct in releasing him. AEW should do the same while offering him to go to rehab. The next step for him is killing himself or even worse some innocent person.

Ladder match is officially gone for now based off the twitter graphic they posted. Wonder if they just change it to Jurrasic Express v. Bucks or add a third replacement team.

I can't see them scrapping the match entirely. Would have been the main event and I think Hardys would have won and held for a short reign.

Yep guy has had problems for decades with drugs and booze. He refuses to admit he has issues.

AEW should say well your suspended and will be until you go to rehab again.

3rd DUI in 10 years. He does deserve prison time send him to jail for 6 months to a year teach him a lesson that his issues and his refusal to get help has a punishment after all.

Good on them for trying to get him help and suspending him without pay until he gets help and stays sober

Good luck, WWE offered him help as well and he said he didnt have a problem.

Oh I'm well aware of getting someone help. I have a younger sister that has been an alcoholic for 9 years. Been arrested multiple times and in and out of rehab centers and hospitals and has also said she doesn't have a problem but then also acknowledges she does. It's all how they are thinking at that point in time and their state of mind.

But me and my family will always be there to help her and get her enrolled into a treatment center even if it doesn't stick. Her being sober for even a short amount of time is a win

I'm sure the same is said for Jeff. And I will always be thankful for any employer that wants to help out their employees..

I think people comparing this to his WWE release and saying.blah blah blah he has a history...are just reaching imo.

WWE "offered" him rehab thinking he was back into drugs...then they tried to get him back after his drug tests came back clean...THATS why he turned them down and said he didn't have a problem

Now, could he have had a problem with alcohol then too? Sure..but nobody can really say for sure, at least public wise, as his last 2 run ins with the law were in 2019.

That said..I'm totally not defending him or his actions. Driving under the influence puts more than just him.at risk, much less at that much over the legal limit.

He deserves plenty of prison time, despite agreeing to rehab, especially with this not his 1st or 2nd offense, as well as his prior drug offenses early in his life.

Unfortunately, as we've seen with Sunny and Jimmy Uso, he'll probably get a slap on the wrist and be out in less than 3 months.

It's a shame this is how the Hardy Boyz "final run" likely ends

[jmarascojr]

The Hardyz have a scheduled signing here in Rochester on July 10th.

It'll be interesting to see if it gets cancelled or rescheduled while Jeff goes and gets help (if he does)...

[GoTribe!!!]

Does anyone have or know how to get for-sale codes for AEW events? I found one for the 8/3 show in Columbus but I'm really interested in the 8/17 show in Charleston WV.

Great first match with Sammy reuniting with Jericho.

The Wardlow thing was beyond stupid. What is Tony’s thing with bringing UFC guys in.

Matt Hughes who was seriously injured in a crash looked confused as hell.

Hughes is lucky to be alive. Even bigger he's made it to were he is today with walking and talking. He even admits he should be dead. I think he also suffered permant brain damge when he was hit by the train.

[DonrussDean]

FB card is getting really good.

Jericho-Sammy- Suzuki vS Kingston-Yuta-Shota will be great.

It was stupid but it was like 180 seconds. It was fine

I absolutely agree about Hughes however

Bad look

I think having Hughes out there was fine. From St Louis I believe and I'm sure he enjoyed just being out there after everything that happened to him.

Is he? If so that’s better

[packman80]

Of course the Old Bucks booked themselves to get the titles back.

Well originally it was going to be the Hardy's but with Jeff relapsing it had to go to the Bucks. It was time for JE to drop the belts, which they should have a while ago.

Now that Christian has turned on Jungle Boy I think that starts the breakup of JE and Jungle Boy going on a singles run.

[cardcollector34]

Dax v. Osprey was great. Really hope they get the titles on FTR by end of year.

Dax (and Cash!) have been great this year, but Dax has a legitimate shot to be wrestler of the year right now.

It makes total sense

But sure

Great show tonight.

[DonrussDean]

Amazing show tonight.. FD is going to be an amazing PPV and I am really looking forward to it.

The only down fall tonight was the Wardlow match. It was just a dumb thing and took the fire out of the crowd after a great opener. I like wardlow, but I was hoping for Sterling to announce the 20th plaintiff was a big guy wrestler like Archer or someone who Sterling got. I just don't know if Wardlow should be getting a belt already. He is still kind of green.

Britt losing was a shocker, but I just didn't see them putting Britt against Rosa again so soon. Storm will be a decent match for Rosa which IMO Rosa needs and she has not been a strong champ.

I was very worried when Page was going against Miro that they would squash Page, but he did very well. I am hoping Page turns on Sky and beats Sky for the belt. He is so underrated and great in the ring, and another reason I hate wardlow going for the TNT already.

Everyone could see the Cage heel turn coming. It was great. JE is good, but getting stale IMO. I wish they had Starks and Hobbs beating them tho. YB really do nothing for me as champs again, unless it builds for them to get away from Cole and Red Dragon and gets Omega back to fight Cole or White.

[natbornkiller]

if its not cole or page
there are only 2 other possibilities
and both are hurt but one has had what 6 months to heel
