Jim Ross Comments on Jeff Hardy Suspension
Count Jim Ross among those shocked and saddened by the latest Jeff Hardy suspension. Here's what the main WWE announcers had to say in his official blog:
"The 60 day suspension, without pay, for a second violation of the WWE Wellness Program of Jeff Hardy is making headlines on several fronts. This is Jeffâs second strike and with one more he is out of the WWE, which would be a terrible waste of talent and opportunity.
To say I am disappointed in these recent events would be an understatement and for those of us who have long believed in Jeff and have pulled for him throughout his career, these self inflicted wounds are especially distressing. For any one to accurately predict what the future holds for Jeff is nothing more than speculation. Only Jeff can determine those answers but the one thing a talent can ill afford to lose is the companyâs trust they work for.
Obviously trust has to be an issue at this point in time between the WWE and Jeff Hardy. I can remembering sharing with Shawn Michaels many years ago during one of his darkest periods that I still believed in Shawn and, luckily for all involved, HBK made it back to the WWE a better man and is a bigger asset today for the WWE than he was in his prime. Jeff is still a young man and can still be a big time player in the WWE if Jeff so chooses.
Interesting days lie ahead for Jeff Hardy and I for one hope he is able to address his issues, take responsibility for his actions, and get back on the road to happiness and success."

I agree, and I hope that Jeff resolves himself enough to come back. I'm a big fan, and would really enjoy seeing back on WWE television. It's a tough thing to deal with, and there's not much talent in the WWE that I really enjoy watching, and Jeff is one of the few I do. And my heart really goes out to him and his girlfriend, and I hope they are able to rebuild what they once had.

I have been watching wwe for six months now and I have seen some good talent from people like DX, John Cena, Ric flair, undertaker, cm punk, and ECT. When I first saw Jeff hardy he was fighting carleto for the intercontinental belt. At the end of the match he won, but to me he was weak. The next Monday he came back and proved me wrong, he was the best wrester I have seen. Over the months I have been watching and reaching Jeff to see what kind of guy he was. I have fond out that Jeff has a lot of problems that he knows and doesn't know. Jeff if you are reading this I want you to know that every match you are in I pray for you to win. I want your dream to come true and be the next wwe champion. I'm saying all this because you and I are the same Jeff hardy, now get your rest and come back to wwe to prove your-self to the world again. From a friend, Rose Lovelis
