AEW superstar Jeff Hardy who is the younger brother of Matt Hardy is known to be a daredevil in the ring thanks to his high-risk move set. So, it should come as no surprise when reports of him getting injured emerge. At this past weekend’s AEW Double or Nothing pay-per-view, viewers noticed Jeff Hardy looking banged up and seemingly not at 100 per cent in the tag team match against the Young Bucks. Later on, it was announced that Jeff would not appear on Dynamite and that got people talking about whether he had suffered an injury.
His tag team partner, Matt Hardy, who is also his brother gave an update on the condition of Jeff on the latest episode of The Extreme Life Of Matt Hardy podcast. He said, “I was happy with the match, especially considering very early on in the match Jeff was almost knocked out. He got hurt pretty bad, that’s why he was pulled from the match in Los Angeles, obviously, so he was kind of running on fumes going through the match. So he held up his end of the bargain pretty good in the big scheme of things.”

Matt doesn’t really know what caused the injury to his younger brother. The veteran then went on to thank the Young Bucks for keeping the match going in spite of the obvious concern. “Jeff doesn’t remember the match at all after that happened,” Matt said. “He was literally just a vessel being given directions throughout this match, to kinda do what he was supposed to do. So considering he got really knocked loopy terribly at some point earlier in the match, he still did pretty good. If you look at that Swanton he does on the stairs, he still does it perfectly.”
The Hardys are known to be hard men when it comes to dealing with injuries as both of them have dealt with many injuries in the past. In 2020, at the All Out pay-per-view, Matt Hardy hit his head on the concrete floor and was visibly hurt during a match with Sammy Guevara. Just like his brother at the weekend, Matt finished the match despite his injury, with AEW later claiming he had cleared their concussion protocols.
