As we have learned on Smackdown Live, Jeff Hardy has been suffering from a knee injury from his past battle scars.

As of now, Jeff Hardy has provided an update on his condition in a post on Instagram. It showed the Charismatic Enigma lying in his hospital bed and further confirmed that he has undergone the surgery, successfully. The due operation is over as he waits to start the rehab process to become ring-fit.
The below-given video clip showed that Jeff Hardy was waking up from slumber and confirming the successful surgery. He also stated that it’s the healing process should kick-off to bring him back on the road. The given caption suggested that doctors performed the surgery on May 2nd. So he did not wait a long time to undergo the surgery as advised by the doctors.
With that being said, we now speculate when Jeff Hardy can make his comeback to the squared circle. The extent of his injury is so severe at this point that we can’t think of an abrupt return within a minimal amount of time. Rumors suggest that this kind of knee injury needs a healing time of 6 to 9 months. So he is not coming back until it’s the end of 2019.
As reported previously, Jeff Hardy always had a torn PCL way back from 2015. It happened when he met with a bike accident. Thankfully, he was okay to go through with wrestling with this for all these years. Speculations suggest that he reinjured the same area to keep himself out of the context for months to come.
Both The Hardy Boyz has their wrestling days numbered due to growing age. So it must be hard for them to miss the precious times which leads them to retirement in the near future. Jeff Hardy suffered another fatal injury back at the end of 2017 to missing Wrestlemania 34. But he came back from that showing valiant efforts and won the United States title becoming a Grand Slam Champion. We hope a similar push will wait for him when he comes back, this time around.
