We noted before how former World Champion Jeff Hardy was arrested this past Saturday Morning for being intoxicated in public and he was later released on a bond.

WWE has now reacted to the news and releasing a very short statement on the matter, the company has avoided any responsibility of the incident, stating that Hardy is responsible for his own actions:

“Jeff Hardy is responsible for his own personal actions.”

For those who don’t know, the former Champion was arrested in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina this past Saturday Morning for public intoxication and impairment.

A mugshot photo of the WWE Star was released later on but he didn’t have to stay behind the bars for long as Jeff was released on a bond for less than $200.

On the SmackDown episode after WrestleMania, the Hardy Boyz won the SmackDown Tag Team Championships, making them a 9 time tag champs in the process.

However, their reign didn’t last for very long and the duo had to relinquish the titles due to Jeff suffering a leg injury which required him a surgery.

Hardy is expected to stay out of action for 6 to 9 months so he is expected to return around the end of 2019 or at the start of 2020.
