Big Update: Jeff Hardy’s Lockdown “Injury” Not Legitimate, Details on Why TNA Planned the Injury Spot Minor Spoiler

January 11, 2015

As we noted over the weekend, Jeff Hardy took a nasty looking bump during his match taped for the TNA Lockdown special on Friday night. The spot, which you can watch video footage of at this link, saw Hardy hit the steel steps very hard after he fell from a steel cage, and TMZ later reported Hardy was legitimately knocked out.

According to PWInsider.com Jeff Hardy was not legitimately hurt during the spot, and it was in fact TNA’s way of writing Hardy off TV for awhile as he cannot travel to The UK with the company for the upcoming Impact tapings.

The cage spot was executed exactly as planned, and TNA will use Hardy’s story line “injury” to explain why he will miss several weeks of TV being taped in The UK next month.

It’s worth noting Matt Hardy did announce he will be working the UK Impact Wrestling tapings.

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.
