AEW president Tony Khan released a statement on Tuesday addressing the status of Jeff Hardy after he was arrested Monday morning on three charges pertaining to driving under the influence.
“We were able to resume contact with Jeff Hardy this afternoon,” Khan said in a statement. “AEW does not condone Jeff’s alleged behavior. We’ve made it clear to Jeff that we’ll assist him in getting treatment for substance abuse issues, which he has indicated that he’s open to receiving. In the interim, he is suspended without pay, and he can only return to AEW upon successfully completing treatment and maintaining his sobriety.
