Jeff Hardy and Shannon Moore officially in TNA (More on Hardy's Release)

In one of the most shocking things I've heard in a while, it seems that Jeff Hardy has signed a tentative deal with TNA Wrestling. His buddy Shannon Moore signed as well, and they are said to be coming in as a tag team called Enigmadness, but I'd venture to say there will be singles competition for Hardy aswell.

According to Matt Hardy on the Hardy Show, Jeff failed a drug test about two weeks before he and CM Punk had their match at Summerslam, which gave Jeff his third strike in the WWE. The WWE didn't release Hardy at the time because he was going to be leaving anyway, so there was no reason to do so.

For those of you who don't know, if one has their third strike in the WWE you must be released from the company and stay unemployeed by them for at least 1 year according to the WWE's Wellness Policy.

To put it in a nutshell, once he signed back with the WWE he'd be released because of the Wellness Policy rules. Three strikes you're out, of course.

Basically Hardy could just go to TNA Wrestling for a year, then return to the WWE when his TNA deal is up. Both he and Moore's deal is said to be for one year.

Jeff's friend Gregory "Hurricane" Helms had the idea, which is actually smart if you ask me. It keeps him in the limelight a while, then he is able to come back to the WWE when the WWE rules allow him to do so.

Hardy and Moore met with Dixie Carter, Hulk Hogan, and Eric Bischoff about coming in at some point within the last few days, and they both agreed to the deal about one day ago.

This is big news for TNA, as they probably signed the hottest free agent on the market. Hardy being there will hopefully increase ratings for them. And with him being an even bigger star now than when he was last in TNA Wrestling, it's only a matter of time before we see him main eventing.

smart move if he wants his job back in WWE but I dont think he'll go back. I think Matt will be released before then.

Just now I told a guy who doesn't like TNA and his name is JeffHardy#1 that he signed to TNA and now he's gonna watch.

^Lol!^

I don't like TNA much but I do like Jeff (although I've lost a lot of respect for him since his drug issues).

I wouldn't say Jeff is the most talented guy though so whether or not he gets pushed by TNA is a mystery. This may be TNA's downfall cos Jeff is up for trial cos of drugs so if gets sent to jail TNA will lose a lot of credability.

WWE holds guys down. TNA gives them a opportunity. Only Jeff would lose credibility.

If Jeff got arrested TNA would lose credability for having one of their employee's arrested on major drug trafficking charges.

Obviously Jeff would lose credability in this situation also.

Awesome news!

*awaits the TNA Haters*

As long as he goes back to WWE I'm fine with this.

LMFAO!!!! so basically the druggie got fired and they covered it up as him leaving to pursue other interests..

*waits for the TNA marks to b*****

^^Oh, see, someone cares that it says Jeff Hardy AND SHANNON MOORE. He's important too.

I was actually more excited to see Shannon than Jeff Monday night, if you can believe it.

I can..i marked out more for Shannon than Jeff Monday night.

So did I. I only saw the first segment, with Moore backstage giving Hardy a high-five or w/e.

what else did he do?

shannon and jeff were shown backstage talking while jeff was painting.

then, him and jeff left to talk to someone later in the show. in the parking lot some girls were waiting and jeff gave them the painting he made.

that's all

i was excited when i first saw him shaking hands with jeff though.

i heard about this on force of wrestling radio that jaff hardy was going to TNA
but i did not know shannon moore was to

Awaits what TNA haters? He is using TNA until he can go back to the WWE...And TNA are jumping on him lol

Lol he did that the first time, eventually TNA released him cause he stopped showing up haha

lmao

yea if hardy gets a bigger push in TNA why go back to WWE and only fight for the US belt or the IC title

the wwe holds stars down

And TNA doesn't push their own talent, they use WWE guys. And Bones, Hardy was in the main event, he won't be in TNA unless they decide to use him more instead of someone worthy like Daniels

yea your right they will push him to feud with danials and they will have a feud triangle with those two and styles i think
