Man, Jeff Hardy just can't catch a break.

Just days after being suspended for 60 days, Jeff Hardy got more bad news when his home in Cameron, NC, burned to the ground last night. Hardy and his girlfriend weren't home when it happened, but virtually everything Hardy owned was destroyed and he lost his pet dog. No other details are available at this time.

No cause of the fire has been determined.

[Afterlife]

Holy shit. Talk about your divine intervention.

[Suicidal Icon]

What a Twist of Fate.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Holy shit, that's crazy. Damn, that sucks for poor Hardy. The silver lining: it's a sympatd hetic rebound from the drug thing. I don't want to make fun of him nearly as much as I should.

However...*insert Jeff Hardy forgetting where he left his lit marijuana cigarette here*

As sick as this sounds, I'd like to see this turned into an angle. "Who burned down Jeff Hardy's house?" Was it the jealous brother, Matt Hardy? Was it the overlooked OMEGA boys, Shannon Moore and/or Gregory Helms? Has Chris Jericho lost the plot? Is the WWE's resident pyromaniac, Kane, responsible? Did Triple H take offence to Jeff Hardy's upset at Armageddon? Is MVP trying to send a message to Matt Hardy? Was Mr. Kennedy trying to level out the playing field for Money in the Bank? Carlito has been proven to go to extreme methods before. Did CM Punk take offence to Jeff failing the drug policy? Was it Jeff Hardy's drug dealer, getting serious about Jeff paying up?

[Kane Knight]

Anyone want to bet on whether drugs had anything to do with the fire?

[Suicidal Icon]

Meth lab gone wrong.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Three weeks ago, Jeff Hardy would have jobbed out the element of fire. Amazing how quickly the wind can blow the smoke.

[Lock Jaw]

*insert joke about the community getting high off the smoke from Jeff's house*

[Afterlife]

I guess there was just too much heat coming his way.

[NYDon]

Meth lab gone wrong.

Gotta be.

[Heros Welcome]

Meth lab gone wrong.

Meth Lab- 1 Hardy- 0

[McLegend]

That really sucks

[Heros Welcome]

On a serious note, that really does suck.

[Hanso Amore]

Meth lab gone wrong.

Thought the same thing

[Londoner]

Wow, this is depressing to hear. Also sorry to hear he lost his dog cause of that. Must be painful. Maybe this experience will change him for the better somehow.

[weather vane]

too bad

[NYDon]

Maybe this experience will change him for the better somehow.

Yes, hopefully, unless he goes to pound me in the ass camp for 5-8 years on a meth charge.

[Xero]

Wanted for questioning.

[Johnny Vegas]

Dude, if you think about it, this in a way would make a title win for him that much more meaningful. I mean people want to see him win the title anyway, but for every "hero" comes the drama of overcoming adversity. And since 75% of the people in the crowds at events know behind-the-scences/internet news already, they'll be rooting for him.

[Y2Ant]

They could totally use this as the angle to bring back Muhammad Hassan.

And then of course, the hWo.

[addy2hotty]

Insurance job.

[The Genius]

i like your line of thinking noid. im not certain when helms is coming back but i would love for this to be turned into a helms/hardy feud. im not sure if hardy will ever reach main event status again but this angle and feud would be cool over something like the US or IC title.

[Mr. JL]

Shit this sucks for Hardy

[Skippord]

that sucks

[Kane Knight]

Meth Lab- 1 Hardy- 0

First Hardy was jobbed out in WWE, now he's been forced to put over a meth lab,

[Afterlife]

I'm really not sure now's a good time go on a trend like "How can we take the greatest tragedy in a man's real life and turn it into a plot line for a tv show?".

From JR's blog



The fall out of the 60 day suspension of Jeff Hardy for a second violation of the WWE Wellness Policy is still making news. Sadly, Friday night, Jeff’s home in North Carolina burned to the ground and he lost essentially every thing he had and most sadly his dog. Losing an animal one is close to is just like losing a family member to many people and we just experienced that with the death of our 18 year old cat Molly who had to be put down after suffering a serious of strokes.

Apparently Matt Hardy saw smoke coming from Jeff’s home on Friday night, discovered that no one was home, but arrived at the house too late to do any thing but watch it burn to the ground.

These are challenging times for Jeff to say the least. Not only has he incurred his second strike with only one remaining before he would be terminated from the WWE, his situation has been underscored by the fact that his suspension went public per the WWE policy, which went into effect on November 1 and with which I wholeheartedly agree. Now Jeff’s home has been destroyed with the heart breaking reality that his beloved dog died in the fire as well.

Jeff’s career can be rebuilt if he so chooses to committing to do such. This commitment cannot be a short term commitment, but a life time commitment that must see him take it one day at a time and have the expressed goal of being successful in 24 hours intervals. I am one that truly believes that Jeff can make this happen, especially if those close to him offer Jeff the kind of support that he needs and that he seeks the wisdom and advise of a counselor who can help Jeff understand why these life and career threatening mistakes are being made.

Jeff’s home can be rebuilt materially, as well, but his many personal affects now nothing more than a memory. I hope this tragedy doesn’t push Jeff to the edge of the proverbial cliff to where his wrestling career becomes nothing more than a memory as well.

I grieve for the loss of the animal. I can only imagine what Jeff Hardy must be going through at this time. without question Jeff is being sternly tested. I hope he passes this test and the one’s to come admirably.

Jeff hardy will be 31 years old on August 31, 2008 and without question his wrestling career can be re-ignited if Jeff can prove to those that make the all important decisions that Jeff can be trusted and has become a responsible professional who understands how important it is to do the right things.

The trust factor is one that cannot be underscored enough. Over my 30+ years in the wrestling business I often wondered why so many of the men in charge were also their territories top stars. Owners/Promoters/Bookers like Eddie Graham, Verne Gagne, Fritz Von Erich, Bob Geigel, Bill Watts, Jerry Jarret and Jerry Lawler, The Funks, and so many more were their area’s top stars more often than not and did so because they knew they could trust and depend on their top stars, them. Being responsible and trust worthy are great traits to have in any field of endeavor, but it seems to be especially viable in the wrestling business based on my personal experiences.

Jeff Hardy can rebuild his home, hopefully he can somehow replace his beloved dog, I know that won’t be easy, but can he rebuild the trust with the WWE that allows Jeff to be provided with more opportunities to be the star that we all know that he can be? No one has this answer today. Only time will tell but I will say that my opinion is that it can be done but it certainly won’t be easy.

Does it run in the Ross family?

[Mr. Nerfect]

Wow, the poor guy lost his dog. That sucks.

[Destor]

Wow, the poor guy lost his dog, his house, and all of his belongings. That sucks.

[MMH]

That blows for Jeff.

Maybe Vince turns this into an angle...

[Mr. JL]

Fuck man... this really sucks for Jeff.

[KingofOldSchool]

Hardy lived in a double-wide trailer that he used as a palette for his art inside and out



from pwtorch.

lol what?

[Azriel]

Jesus Christ, that really sucks for Jeff. My heart goes out to him.

[Kane Knight]

It really does suck.

Though, and I don't propose this to be an asshole, maybe this will be a positive thing. Maybe hitting rock bottom (Not hitting The Rock Bottom) is what he needs to straighten out once and for all.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Destor, Jeff Hardy has money (if he hasn't spent it all on drugs). He can buy a new trailer. You can't buy your dog back. It was horrible what happened to his house and belongings and stuff, don't get me wrong, but the dog was the only thing that lost its life.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Anyone want to bet on whether drugs had anything to do with the fire?

Man, ya know, even though it would probably teach him a pretty harsh life lesson about why getting high isn't worth it or whatever, but I can't help but wonder if what he's done in the past is starting to catch up to him.

See, what I don't get, is how the fuck can you hit main event/main event champion (WWE or World Champ are the only 2 that I would categorize as such; ECW, TNA and other belts are practically worthless...) is why superstars would let drugs influence them right after they make their big break. Jeff will certainly be in my prayers as he tries to rebuild his life and his home. I just hope he won't end up going the way of Rob Van Dam.:(

[Kane Knight]

Yeah, because at 38 years old Rob Van Dam has enough money to retire, smoke pot all day and do whatever the fuck he wants. It's really sad.

Yeah, it's too bad money isn't the only measure of happiness.

Or maybe it is. Let's go ask Kurt Cobain....

[Afterlife]

But he's de-- oooOOOooooh, I get it.

[CharismaInjection]

Seriously, it's gotta be crushing knowing your dog burned to death.

[Savio]

poor doggie :(

[Mr. JL]

Yeah, it's too bad money isn't the only measure of happiness.

Well, Rob is also not married to Courtney Love.

[Mr. JL]

I'd probablly kill myself too in his place.

[Afterlife]

Yes, but I imagine it was asphixiated.

Happier "what if" scenario: The dog got just as frustrated with Jeff Hardy as we did, and he said "fuck it" and went to Chris Jericho's house.

Actually, the Police now suspect the dog started the fire. He sent several strange text messages to Jeff....

LO f'n L

at the above two posts

[TerranRich]

I just think it's funny that Matt Hardy could do nothing but watch the house burn.

"Oh damn! Jeff's house is on fire! I... ah well, nothing I can do. [waits, starts to whistle, folds hands behind back, rocks on heels, looks around casually, nods to himself randomly]"

[KingofOldSchool]

Matt can only slap a tornado and dry up a sea, but he can't stop fires.

Probably got a contact high and went looking for some snack food. If he fails a drug test in the next 90, we'll know. :shifty:

[Theo Dious]

That blows for Jeff.

Maybe Vince turns this into an angle...

What, Jeff vs Hornswoggle for the deed to living under the ring?

Additionally:

Jeff’s career can be rebuilt if he so chooses to committing to do such.

Jim Ross is retarded.

[KingofOldSchool]

Homeless Jeff

He comes to the ring in a cardboard box and smashes his opponents in the head with his jar of piss.

Jeff: Oh fuck man! My house is on fire! What am I... Matt?
Matt: Oh hi man. Look I just got here, and I really couldn't-
Jeff: Are those marshmallows, dude?
Matt: Huh? Oh these, yeah, I was just...
Jeff: You gonna share or what man?!

[Theo Dious]

It really does suck.

That would be weird.

Lawler: JR did Jeff just hit the Rock Bottom on Jericho?
JR: Looks that way King. I guess he really has lost his mind.
Lawler: Well if he's going to do that I'm going to go up there and Gorlla Press Santino.
JR: Bah Gawd King, you're a senior citizen for the love of BBQ sauce!

[Afterlife]

I guess his house got busted for it's third strike drug violation. I mean, Jeff only got suspended...but his house got fired.













GET IT?!

[RP]

sucks that Jeff's 200 dollar house burned down.

[Shadow]

....fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

And no...I had nothing to do with it

[Halbowsky]

Jeff; while at home sulking about his suspension, decided he needed to cheer up and popped in "Revenge of the Nerds". Not too long into the movie, he decided to recreate the scene with his girlfriend playing the role of the Alpha Betas having her chant "Fireball! Fireball! Fireball!"

[Jeritron]

What goods a house do you when you work for the WWE anyways? They're only at it like 20 days a year, and most of the time it's to let out the dogs and kill the family

[KingofOldSchool]

If I had any decent video editing software, I would so totally recreate this scene ala that one Benoit video on YouTube.

*video starts of Beth and the dog*

Beth: Here...boy!...Time...to eat...your food!

Dog: ......

Beth: Come...and eat!

Dog: .....

Beth: God dammit...you!

Dog: SHUT UP...BITCH!

Beth: *shocked expression*...Dogs aren't...supposed...to...talk!

Dog: *thinks* Dammit...the bitch...wasn't supposed...to...know.

*dog bites Beth's face*

*dog drags Beth out back*

Dog: ...Aw dammit...I royally...fucked...up. They are defiantly...going to put...me to sleep...now. Well...they aren't...taking me...alive.

*That Enya music plays as the dog goes through the house pouring gasoline on everything with his mouth*

*Dog drops match and house catches on fire*

*Matt Hardy walks up to Jeff's house*

Matt: Oh no...my baby...brother's...trailer is on...fire. This is a...pickle. What...should I...do?

*Matt stands there*

*Matt yells and drops his second rope leg drop on the trailer thus engulfing it in flames further*

*Matt's music begins to plays*

Matt: VVVVVVVVVV11111111-UAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!

[Londoner]

Bad timing though considering he just got suspended for 60days!

[Kane Knight]

What, Jeff vs Hornswoggle for the deed to living under the ring?

I just figured he's talking in KAYFABE. Otherwise, a lot of the shit he's said over the years is a lot scarier.

What makes it worse is that he had no home owners insureance.
