While this isn’t his first brush with the law, The Charismatic Enigma was reportedly sober and clean leading up to his AEW debut. However, on Monday, he was arrested for allegedly driving under the influence, along with other charges.
According to ESPN’s Marc Raimondi, citing the Florida Highway Patrol arrest report, Jeff was apparently in a stupor when engaged by the police.
Elaborating further on the comments, Raimondi stated that Jeff’s breath test read 0.294 blood-alcohol content, followed by a second sample reading 0.291. Considering the legal limit to drive in Florida is 0.08, the test gave more than enough evidence to justify the arrest.
Jeff Hardy was offered rehab before coming to AEW
While he is loved by fans worldwide, The Charismatic Enigma has had his fair share of unfortunate incidents involving addiction and alcohol.
Back in WWE, Jeff had walked out of a live event in the middle of a six-man tag team match. This prompted the company to offer rehab for the decorated star, which he had refused.
In a recent conversation with Chris Jericho on Talk Is Jericho, Jeff Hardy spoke about why he didn’t want to go to rehab.
As of now, The Hardys’ status regarding their upcoming ladder match in AEW is uncertain. Fans will have to stay tuned to see how the incident affects The Charismatic Enigma’s run in the coming weeks.
