The Wrestling Observer Newsletter noted this week that one person within WWE says there have been a lot of Jeff Hardy mentions going around lately.

We noted recently how Hardy was one of the potential returns that WWE polled fans on. It's also worth noting that The Hardys were mentioned on RAW during the segment with Edge, Christian and The Dudley Boyz. It could be said that it would have been awkward for those two teams to talk about their history without mentioning The Hardys but that hasn't stopped WWE before.

It was also noted by The Observer that the public Hardy mentions were previously not encouraged in WWE. While Hardy is currently signed to TNA, it was speculated that a WWE return could happen as TNA needs to greatly reduce their costs due to the TV situation and the two highest paid performers are believed to be Hardy and Kurt Angle, who announced that he's taking time off and won't be re-signing at the end of this year.

Just for the people who didn't watch SmackDown, or never knew how he left the WWE. He lost a Steel Cage Match to CM Punk in August-September of 2009.

I've liked Hardy for a long time. I'd be happy for him to return to the WWE. It would be better if Matt Hardy returns with him, but I doubt Matt will choose another useless stint over a far more relaxed and well paid independent schedule with ROH, TNA and such. Jeff Hardy on the other hand should be happy he'd be working, about, the same schedule but with a better pay and more stable future. Opinions on this?

I'd like it for The Hardy Boyz to return, been a fan of theirs for a long time.

I'm not a huge fan of either Hardy, but it would be fun to see Jeff and Matt or just Jeff (at least for a while...I have a feeling it wouldn't be long before Matt was back on board, too) back in the WWE, especially if it was given the same type of push that the Dudleyz return was.

I do think it would be a tremendous opportunity to build them back up and then feed them to K.O., Cesaro, Neville, the next big thing to come up from NXT, etc.

Is he still a big risk? I have no idea if he's screwed up or not recently. He's got a stupid ability to get over if required and he's a strong pick for the sympathetic babyface role if not.

He's just come back from breaking his leg but I don't think he's ring work ready just yet. And I think Jeff still is on something. Not sure what. Matt is supposed to be clean outside of living with Reby Sky.

Yeah his ring will always be ugly IMO, I heard they have him as EC3's assistant or something. So he's still passing out in hallways?

Haven't heard anything like that. So he might be clean, or he could be like Angle and be clean at work but out of it when not at work

What hints has he given you he is still using?

Jeff is a bomb waiting to implode. Jeff is fun to watch and has this ability to make people like him, but once he starts to get big again, it'll all turn to shit. He can barely handle his own life.
