Smackdown Ladder: Jeff Hardy, Rey Mysterio, Morrison & More!

OFF THE LADDER COMPLETELY – JEFF HARDY

What can I say, if Jeff was truly burnt out and was nursing nagging injuries then I have to agree that taking some time off from pro wrestling was necessary for the gifted star. As Jim Ross put it, there is no off-season for these guys, so sometimes they have to create one for themselves.

What makes this a tough hiatus for me to understand, however, is that Jeff was currently seated at the top of WWE, and his star was shining brighter than it ever had in the past. He was having the best matches of his career, and he was creating new stars for WWE. If this were a situation like Christian was in before he left to go to TNA, then I would agree that Jeff should take the time off as he wasn’t going anywhere, but Jeff was at the top of the ladder, so I don’t understand why he’d want to jump off. But then again I guess Jeff has a tendency to jump off ladders from time to time;)

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.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
