WWE's last unofficial offer to Jeff Hardy before he went to TNA had a $750,000 downside where he would only have to work 65 dates a year, giving him the biggest break on the schedule out of any WWE stars, including Shawn Michaels.
Obviously Hardy turned the deal down as he was upset that nobody backed him after his drug arrest and he was upset over the promos that WWE had CM Punk cut on him after he left the company. The feeling was that Hardy wasn't with the company at the time and the promos from Punk weren't business as they weren't used to build a match.

Their final offer should have been rehab.

Proof?
That's a damn strong deal...of course he was their hottest star and probably bigger than Cena at the time of his departure. Shame TNA kills whatever luster a star has.

Seriously I stopped caring about Jeff. I mean I understand the guy wants to be free spirited and junk, but come on 65 days a year! I lost alot of support for him, when he jumped to TNA, I felt like that was a big F U to the WWE fans that gave him that Main Event level support. Thats just my opinion, Im sure some TNA mark will bash me for it.

That was pretty much one show a week (Either Raw or Smackdown depending which he got trade drafted to) and all PPVs. No house shows. Do the math, 52 Raws or Smackdowns a years and 12 or 13 PPVs. Comes out to about 65 dates.

The only reason their holding Hardy back in TNA is because of his Drug Charges still not settled. Your not gonna put a Championship on someone who could be found guilty of drug charges.... That'd be stupid.

That'd be stupid. That doesnt explain why he's not even remotely as popular as he was a year ago. That's cos Jeff Hardy is a bigger star on WWE than on TNA. It's one of those strange things. Also u have to remember WWE fans are from all corners of the world. WWE's reach is so much greater compared to TNA, that's why he's a bigger star on WWE. |

WWE has the ratings and the bigger fanbase. Plus Jeff Hardy was way more established in the WWE as a Face than he is in TNA. His first run in TNA didnt even get him capturing the NWA Title. And his Second run has been upper midcarder at best, but thats mostly because he hasnt solved his court case yet to make him a bigger star.

LOL totally beats the hell out of what regular 9 to 5 people like us make on a daily basis. $11,500+ for 2-4 of work per work day and only one day per week for the most part  . he should have taken the deal. seriously i'd love to make that much money a day with only working 2-4 hours each time. that's crazy. |

When he's ready to go, the Hardy Boyz are going to be the unified tag team champions.
