Jeff Hardy Talks TNA SpikeTV Situation, Working As Willow
Jeff Hardy was a recent guest on Live Audio Wrestling to promote Impact Wrestling on SpikeTV. Below are some interview highlights:
The situation with TNA on Spike TV:
“I don’t follow any of the timelines – Twitter or any of that. As far as I know negotiations are still ongoing. That’s all I know. As far as me – I just look at it like this – I’ll show up and do the best I can and have great matches. That’s my job. It’s not really my problem whether we stay on Spike or not. That’s somebody else’s problem.”
Putting a top star under a mask like TNA did with his Willow character:
“WWE would probably never do that because you know my face is my money maker. That’s what’s cool about it with me and being in TNA, a smaller planet in professional wrestling but they’re willing to take chances. As far as I’m concerned – I’m thankful they gave me that chance. Because – for me – I’m 36 years old now. Just to do that – to have these memories on video that will last forever. I can always say I brought Willow back and it wasn’t half bad.”
Changes he has made since Victory Road:
“When you do get clean and completely drug free it’s amazing how things change. I find it hard to forgive myself for the way I was you know back in the day with the abuse and the addiction – it kinda makes me sick. Looking back on it – if I would’ve never got hooked. You can’t dwell on that. I’m lucky I’m alive.”
Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.
