– In an update from yesterday’s story on Jeff Hardy possibly leaving WWE soon, he still has not been receptive to any of the long term deals WWE has offered. The company actually offered Jeff a one year deal so they can lock him in for the time being and start working towards a longer deal. As of this writing, the last word was that Hardy still has not agreed to a deal.
Hardy’s contract situation is the reason he has been booked to lose in the feud with his brother Matt. Matt has been getting the victories to make him look stronger and put Jeff down in case Jeff ends up leaving the company.
The belief right now is that Jeff isn’t looking to go to another wrestling company, atleast openly, but that he is looking to live his life on his own schedule. TNA sources indicated yesterday that they have had no contact with Jeff. Regardless of what ends up happening, we will keep you updated.

Nope – plan was always for Matt to win the fist match at WrestleMania, so that Jeff can win the big rematch later on. Booking was never affected by any of this. Jeff is supposed to win at Backlash, but that might NOW change due to the contract hold-up. It’s basically either Jeff playing this really smart knowing the company needs him (as he’s planned to be one of the big faces on SmackDown! this summer) and he’s trying to get a better deal, or he’s just being Jeff Hardy…
