Jeff Hardy Cleared To Wrestle If He Wears A Mask

Jeff Hardy recently made his return to TNA Wrestling at Against All Odds, with the ‘Charismatic Enigma’ making his first appearance on TV since breaking his nose in an AEW ring in February 2024.

Hardy was injured when Sammy Guevara landed on top of his face during a Shooting Star Press, and Jeff told MuscleManMalcolm that he has been cleared to wrestle again as long as he wears a protective face mask whilst his nose continues to heal.

Despite returning to TNA for a third run with the promotion, Hardy is not signed to an exclusive deal with the promotion, with he and brother Matt Hardy appearing for TNA on per-appearance deals, technically leaving them free to sign with another promotion full-time should they wish.

Hardy has a storied history in TNA, with Jeff having reigned as TNA World Champion on three occasions, whilst also reigning as TNA World Tag team Champion on two occasions with brother Matt. Jeff’s return at Against All Odds marked his first appearance in TNA since February 2017, with The Hardys departing the company for a brief Ring of Honor run before their triumphant WWE returns at WrestleMania 33.
