Matt Hardy addressed his brother Jeff Hardy’s arrest on DUI and other charges with the following social media statement on Tuesday.
It was disheartening to hear the news about my brother yesterday. Recovery isn’t a linear process & I’ll continue doing whatever I can to help my brother be healthy. Being healthy & well is the most important thing for Jeff, his wife, his children & our family at this time.

Powell’s POV: While Matt is doing the right thing by focusing on the health of his brother, you have to feel bad for him because Jeff’s actions obviously impact Matt’s career. AEW has yet to publicly comment on Jeff’s arrest, though they have stopped promoting the previously advertised Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus vs. The Hardys vs. The Young Bucks three-way ladder match for the AEW Tag Titles that was previously planned for Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite.
Matt was a bad wing man. Enabler most likely….shame.
