Matt Hardy has provided an update on his brother Jeff Hardy‘s neck injury.
Reigning TNA World Tag Team Champion Jeff Hardy revealed during a recent interview that he’s been working with a neck injury (two bulging discs) since he and Matt Hardy dropped the NXT Tag Team Championship to DarkState at NXT Halloween Havoc in October 2025.
Now, speaking on his Extreme Life of Matt Hardy podcast, Matt gave an update on his brother’s condition.
“He’s feeling better,” Matt Hardy began. “It’s a very slow process. We’re actually going to talk to some of the doctors. And a special person is coming in to discuss the best way to ease the pain. ‘Can you manipulate the disks?’ They aren’t tripping too bad and they have gotten better. He’s been doing things that he can do. There have been some guys who have gotten procedures where they’ve shaved off part of the discs, and they continue to go, and they are okay.
Speaking further, Matt Hardy hoped that this injury would turn his brother, who’s known for his high-flying style of wrestling, into a smart worker in the ring.
“He has options and possibilities of what he can do. First and foremost, he would rather do it as naturally and as organically as possible. That’s what he’s working on. We’re trying to keep him working smart. In some ways, I think Jeff having this and being a little freaked out by it is going to turn him into a smarter worker, which isn’t a bad thing at his age,” Matt Hardy said. [H/T Fightful]
Jeff and Matt Hardy will defend their TNA World Tag Team Championship against The Righteous tomorrow at Genesis.
